    Kevyn Adams was on WGR at 5pm

    Sounded disappointed in how this season has gone and did say he’ll be looking for trades that are more helpful for now and the future. So it sounds like he’s done kicking the ball down the road. They asked him about what he think went wrong and while he started with the typical learning curve lingo he said that he’ll put that off to the side and could talk 2 hours about what else went wrong and the good news was he refused to claim injuries ruined them.

    Outright stated Mitts has 2 years of RFA left as well as isn’t being shopped whatsoever. He’s talked about him as with most players but isn’t seeking out to move him. Also thrashed much of the rumors about the Sabres that are being discussed online. 
     

    I honestly think Adams has a very similar approach to how I think. We are both very cautious with a fear of outright losing a trade. Additionally we both had hoped the team would keep growing naturally with tweaks around the edges. As such, like me, I’d imagine he’s very discontent over this season and annoyed by the lack of good starts and special teams play.
     

    My main theory as to Granato’s retention is more related to a combo of many previous firings as well as Granato’s brother getting cancer near Christmas. Buffalo is already a less than beloved place to go; you have treat your coaches and players well if you want to hire new guys. Teams that win consistently can get away with far more questionable behavior than a team in a 12 year drought. I’d guess next year we’ll have all new assistants and possibly a new head coach if Brind’Amour shakes loose. 
     

    Adams stated he’s very good friends with Peca which would say his departure wasn’t a dirty one and that it was far more likely that Peca wanted to go learn from an experienced head coach versus a first timer  like Granato. 
     

    That’s what I garnered from the interview as I drove home from work

    I didn't hear it, so thanks.  That said, what I don't see here is any sense of accountability...whether it be TP's, GMKA's, DG's, etc.  What's missing is taking any responsibility for this crap show and not enough commitment to fix the problem.

  8. Harrington tweet indicates DG will be back next year with a new assistant staff

    Yes.  One last chance.  But they need to hire assistants who have experience. ....lots of experience.   
    honest question, could they hire Peca away from Rangers if they place assistant head coach on him? 

    No chance they'll succeed if they bring him back.  The players need to hear a completely different voice....and I don't mean one that says similar things as DG or Krueger.  They need somebody who has a pulse who keeps it simple....not the word salads we have heard the past 3 or 4 seasons.   Every single coach including DG should be replaced.

  12. The Only Way Anything Changes is a Sale

    He needs to pay for a new football stadium (cost overruns).  The rationale he can use for selling is to run the team into the ground, thus causing fan interest to become nonexistent.....then nobody will object to him selling to a new owner who wants to move the team elsewhere.  He has been highly successful in terms of running this team into the ground (so far).
