Most of the time I want him to do less, not more. Hire better FO leadership and get out their way - do that Terry.

These cryptic blurbs from social media are irrational to me. So far we have Adams and TP met already, and that Lindy is in charge of the roster. Knowing TP I will guess that no one currently on contract is leaving, but there will be title and responsibility changes.

Cozens with a shorty. Good for him.

Otters take a 1-0 lead after 2.

Were is the accountability talk this year? Last year Adams blamed Granato, and he even had players repeating the mantra. This year is it conditioning? and what else? better goaltending and/or better defense? better special teams? coming together sooner? Everything but the truth - the roster is not good enough, the coaching is not good enough, the experience and leadership is not there. Missing the playoffs hurts more than just lost revenues. The team can't learn and grow together when they NEVER make the playoffs. Adams' deliberately slow plan, based on saving your payroll (salary cap) to sign only your own drafted players has become self defeating.

Ekblad has been a maniac tonight.

Tampa’s 4th line scores. Nice answer ohh, and another. 2 goals.

Wow. Ekblad blasted Hagel, he wobbled to the dressing room. Cheap hit, no call.

First rumor is that Terry wanted Ruff in the organization, a result of last years "coach search". Second Rumor is that Ruff moves up to an FO position after two years and Appert gets to wear the Daddy Pants. Third Rumor is Adams is being moved. Todays reality: In Ruff, we get a guy in his second season back as coach, in a win or die situation, and with lame deck status beyond next season. Not ideal, but TP is not going to send him away after just one season. I think this means that whether Adams moves or not Lindy will around at least another year.

Huh. I thought you were from that part of Canada.

Ae you not a Winnipeg Jets fan too?

The irony is he think he built a great defense. Inherited Dahlin. Drafted Power and paid him after one year. Paid Muel after 54 NHL games. Traded for Byram, then admitted he did not know were he fit. For his next trick Ryan Johnson will make the team next season and full all those Jokiharju minutes.
