Quinn drew blood. The 'Nuck didn't.

Darn it Greenway. Guess we now get why Ruff is trying to not overtax you.

Doan. (Dunleavy does make that name sound like Dunne though, doesn't he?) Edit: Well, nevermind. Thanks for the correction @Bangarang.

It's almost like watching the Blue & Gold scrimmage.

No point in waiting that long. Can see that being the case. But if the decision has been made, just rip that bandaid off.

3 defenders decide to worry about McLeod behind the net leaving Dahlin widely alone in front. Does Wilford have a cousin working for the 'Nucks?

Illness and he "tweaked something" in the pregame warmups in Edmonton.

That's not a resolution. That's a respite.

Nah, that would be signing Kuntar. The Buffalo boy signing the Buffalo boy as his last official act. Poetic. 😉

Not when they are part and parcel of the same thing. He wanted Eichel gone (probably was mean to him in the hallways) and he wanted the long form rebuild. And keeping Eichel didn't fit in with a long form rebuild.

He's 69 and has been out of the game for ~10 years. Guessing that ain't happenin'. 😉

He meant he'd be following the course the owner had asked him to follow but that it would bring much short term pain with it. One thing that Regier always did was work within whatever constraints his boss(es) put on him. The owners asked for the worst team in the league for 2 years to have the best chance at landing McDavid and being guaranteed the consolation prize of Eichel. He did their bidding. At least until they saw the results of what they'd actually signed on for and then canned him. And personally, find telling the paying customers of a business that is SUPPOSED to be entertaining that they will be suffering is absolute garbage. He should never have agreed to that. IMHO his agreeing to that pretty much ended his career in the NHL. He was an AGM for the Coyotes for a year or 2 after Buffalo and hasn't been heard from since. This being a guy who's teams won 1 Wales Conference Trophy a Presidents Trophy and had 4 trips to the Conference Finals.

Adams brought in Hall & Staal because Krueger and Pegula wanted one more go with an Eichel-centric team. Adams did not want that. He wanted to alter the direction from day one. @Thorny explains it pretty well in his reply.

IF the team really is close to removing Adams of GM duties, would like the 3 headed goalie monster to remain for 1-3 more weeks - however long it is until Pegula plans on pulling the trigger on Adams removal. If they AREN'T close to removing him; then yes, get what you can for UPL today and move on.

Would clarify that further by adding it was his wanting Eichel out even before he took over as the GM.
