What a joke. KA needs a babysitter.

Dudley is steady.  He has worked for 8 teams either coaching, front office, executive, and advisory.  He could help the Sabres.    
 

 

He's on 5-year run as a Panther advisor, his longest stint with one franchise.

Maybe he's settling down in his 70s?

• VP Canes 2 years
• VP Habs 4 years
• AGM Habs 2 years
• Director player personnel Leafs 1 year
• GM Thrashers 1 year
• AGM Thrashers 1 year
• AGM Hawks 2 years
• DPP Hawks 2 years
• GM Panthers 2 years
• GM Lightning 2.5 years
• GM Senators 1 year

That's a lot of change, but he keeps getting hired.

So we’re looking for someone better suited to be GM to work under and report to the failed GM?

It's funny to see all the Rick Dudley stuff on twitter etc. 

I wanted them to hire Dudley as a Senior advisor/Director of Hockey ops whatever type thing back when it was time to fire Murray and start over. And then again when they fired JBot. And after that even. So now it just feels like too little way too late. 

I mean sure, but BELOW Adams? That's backass. If they hired Dudley, Dudley should be the one deciding if Adams deserves to keep his job.

If you can’t envision the guy below Adams in a hierarchy, you are aiming too high re: candidate

6 years into his tenure and we're just now looking for a 'senior advisor to work with Adams that has been in the GM chair before.'  Meanwhile leafs look like they're going to win the cup.  ***** me.  Maybe time for a long extended break from hockey.

I can't envision anything because the whole organization is just stupid. 

Seth Appert promoted FFS. Joke franchise.

Let's not jump the gun, they've been up in series before.
