I still think he survives the season then is let go.

Yes, he's a rental for a playoff team. A first and prospect would be surprising for me. Even though it would be late first rounder. I would guess second rounder if team signs him converts to first.

Frankly, Hutton is so far from the problem in this game..

No GM has full authority in my opinion given your description.

Hall value as a playoff rental is not as great as many might think. Sign and trade might be possible but I'm not sure.

My guess is Krueger survives season but let go then. Only question is do the Pegulas bring in someone to oversee the whole hockey operation. That rumor seems to have gone silent. Not sure it would be easy to find such a person who is qualified and would still want the job.

Exactly. They are in a small market and there is a reason they remain there normally. One, they don't want to relocate, or two they aren't advancing in their careers. Sports radio overall isn't all that great in my opinion. Frankly on equal ground with forums such as this as far as information goes except for interviews.

True but all owners have "full" authority when it comes right down too it. Question is do they intervene with that to nix a GM decisions.

He may not be but that's just part of the problem. Unfortunately the biggest problem may be one not easily fixed. Initials TP and KP.

More jock talk

In other words this weekend negates the past games? Really. I know you're trying your best to find positives but , as expected, this side show confirmed my worst feelings. I think Kevin is a nice guy and I feel sorry for him in many ways but quite frankly this was a guy who should not have been in this position. The only hope is our clueless ownership brings in someone capable of running a hockey franchise.

What a freakin disaster!

Jock talk. Just like this media event.

Had to just turn this bs show off. Pegula you're gutless and don't have a clue. Stick to development but get out of hockey.

Terry should come out and take this heat. Kevin has been sent out. Pegula shame on you. You're responsible. Period. Kevin is at this point the scapegoat for owners.

The problems are pretty obvious anyway.

I think you nailed it. The problem now is not related to the tank whether you were pro tank or anti tank. It's what's transpired post tank that's our problem. Poor management of assets and poor hiring. This organization needs pretty much an overhaul and that's top down not bottom up.

We're out of the playoffs. It's fantasy to think otherwise.

Question. Who would that be.

This will be a rather tardy PR thing. Probably we'll feel even more depressed after it.

Probably not going to happen as I think the Pegulas still think they know how to run the franchise. Most qualified candidates for being POHO won't want to just be a voice for owners. Hope I'm wrong but as times have gone by my doubts about our owners has increased and I think they still want to run things .

We're in need of a coach but not until the organization above the coach is fixed. Won't happen until the Pegulas are enlightened to the problem is in front of their mirrors and turn things over to people who know their a.. from their elbows. And those people are not in the organization presently. I seriously doubt the owners see themselves as THE problem.

And they will eventually lose their shrinking fan base. I can't believe they can continue to peddle this to paying customers.

I'm not sure that the Pegulas are ready to abide by that.
