LGR4GM Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 I'll find the video but we can put all the nonsense in here. highlights: Non answer on Peterka asking out They've never considered buying out Samuelsson Official said all assistants are back Tuch is a priority 9 is in play but also they might use it Idk, I probably missed something 1 Quote
Porous Five Hole Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 Jarmo will be working remotely. He didn’t deny the JJP trade rumor, so you can assume a trade was asked for. Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 24 Author Report Posted June 24 Should note also Adams very defiantly said the rumors out there were all nonsense before he mentioned Samuelsson specifically 1 Quote

I'm more concerned about what he does and not what he says. You're wasting your irritation energy on a vapid PR appearance. I expect some action on draft day. Jarma wasn't added to the payroll to sit on his arse and argue for the status quo. That's what my focus is on. What my desires are: I don't want JJP traded. I don't want Quin traded. I don't want Kulich traded. I don't want Benson traded. I don't want Power traded. I don't want Samuelsson traded. (I'm not giving up on him.) I want Byram traded. I want UPL traded. I want a couple of rugged defensemen added to the unit. I want an experienced goalie brought in. I want a second line forward added. Nothing extravagant. These desires are all doable. No excuses. 2 Quote

Mr. MVP Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 What was the point of this press conference? Why did they even schedule it? 3 1 Quote

PromoTheRobot Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 Someone else compared Adams in a press conference 5 years ago to Adams today. He exudes the confidence of a whipped puppy. Quote

Flashsabre Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 He held it to show empathy. He knows we are all upset about the misinformation out there about Muel and he showed us support today.😀 Quote

French Collection Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 So Mule is not getting bought out. Well, then he needs to be traded because he was given a nice contract and a letter and he doesn’t stand up for a fallen teammate. Coaching staff is under contract, whoopty f***ing doo, everyone that gets fired in the league is under contract dipstick. Do better. My fandom is on the ropes and then this loser comes out and says nothing. I know they are tight lipped about moves and that is OK even admirable, just don’t have press conferences until you do something then. Key words, do something. Hard to comprehend from Mr. Run It Back. 4 2 Quote

UPL and Östlund to the Canucks for Demko and Forbert, Demko quickly extended. Done, easy-peasy? Quote

I contend that fortifying the goalie position and adding a couple of defensive and more physical blue line players will make a big difference. The most consequential decision will be bringing in a goalie who will fortify that essential position. That's the biggest challenge for the front office. My expectation/hope is that Quinn, JJP, Power, Benson, Kulich and Samuelsson will be better. Am I being unreasonable? I don't think so. All these young players have enough experience where they should be a lot more comfortable in manly league. 1 Quote

I suspect your take aligns a lot more closely to Kevyn Adams than you’d be comfortable with, given your recent posting history. 2 1 Quote

Sympathy comes from a perspective of superiority. There is no feeling of what it is like to be in someone else's shoes. Empathy comes from a perspective of “this could happen to me”. Ain’t no way Kyvyn could have happen to him what is happening to the fanbase. Quote
