I’m convinced they never wanted to play for Lindy.
And, they stink.
If Adams isn’t fired tomorrow this is not a serious franchise. Maybe TP wants to finish bottom 3 idk.
So, because the young guys we forced to play so soon are now officially stunted as far as their growth - most should be traded.
Because no one on this team of significance knows how to win.
So I’d be making a lot of trades for players under team control and draft assets and completely start again.
You need a core to build around.
Here is my core I’d keep:
Dahlin
Benson
Kulich
Ok so knowing that I’d trade everything else. And if Rasmus wants no part of it then I’d trade him too.
We can completely rebuild a good team in 2-3 seasons. Maybe emerge with a few top 3-5 picks in the process.
This all has to be done under new management of course.
Add to the kids playing well in Rochester.
That’s how I see it.
I think Buffalo is a harder sell bc of its organization’s reputation getting worse once ROR, Samson, and Eichel left.
I'm sure every player in the league has heard what a dysfunctional mess we are.
But it was easier for Adams to say taxes and palm trees.
