Sabrespace Help Guide For Kevyn Adams

[GASabresIUFAN]

Since the Pegulas don't seem willing to give you an real help in your new job, I'd like to offer the collective wisdom of this excellent board to help you in your new endeavor.

@rakish and @LGR4GM your in charge of scouting and draft prep.

@tom webster your are in charge of prospect development 

@Brawndo you are in charge of PR

@SDS you are in charge of technology

@dudacek, @Randall Flagg, @Weave, @pi2000, @Curt, @Thorny, @nfreeman, @freester and anyone else who like to participate please let me know in what areas in the organization you'd like to work to help Kevyn out. Roster construction, pro scouting, analytics, player acquisition, and free agent negotiation, the team needs help in all these areas.  They also need help in finding coaches for Rochester and hopefully an Ast GM.

I plan to help in cap management.

To that end what's our plan?  We need a draft list, a list of potential FA acquisitions, a list of potential trade targets, contracts for our RFAs and any UFAs we want to retain, a list of buyout candidates (both internal and external) if there is a compliance buyout and a list of potential external cap casualties.  

Ok lets get to work.  I'm serious by the way.  I'd love to see the lists we come up with as a group.  I have a feeling we'll do a better job then Adams and his staff such as it is.

People who actually know hockey.

Guess I'm on the beer drinking team

I guess my posts would suggest I should be on the PR team.

Anywhere you want.  Everyone on the board is welcome to participate and add their two cents, I just listed a few people who came to mind quickly.  No offense meant.

[Stoner]

I can be liason with ownership.

(First I'll learn how to spell it. WTF.)

Dibs on head pro scout 

[nfreeman]

I'd like to be in charge of kitchen snacks.

I assume under the new financial directives we're going to be shopping at Costco, and buying house brand only.

GMKheevyn Help Guide, we will watch your career with great interest. (I'll chow on popcorn while reading this thread, and no disintegrations, well, limited quotations.)

Oh, no, that's my choice. The arena beer selection is terrible. I want to fix it. 

[Sabres Fan in NS]

As a CPA I will do the easiest and fastest job since there does not appear to be many ... bean counter. 

[Curt]

If Adams has such a lack of experience that it is certifiable fact that he is going to be a bad GM to start off, then there is no way in heck that any of us have enough experience to be anything other than terrible advisors.

Lol.  I think you’d be surprised 

[LGR4GM]

Keep all remaining draft picks for now. Hope we win the draft lottery. If not hope Rossi slides because he is short and an *****. 

[bob_sauve28]

Carter Hutton wants to know who his optometrist will be 

[LGR4GM]

For your consideration

 

[freester]

Do not trade Sam but rather sign him to a long term extension at reasonable money. 

Trade Risto and/or Montour to get Kapanen and a 2C. We will obviously need to add. (2 separate trades)

resign Larsson and Girgensons for cheap. Keep GLO line intact. 

Mitts stays in Rochester for a long time until he dominates 

Do not trade 2020 first round pick

I'll take completely useless threads for 400, Alex.

[Weave]

The only thing I want to be in charge of is wielding Mjolnir and using it to smite every next person who suggests we tank again.  Ever.

I consider myself an expert on being completely useless, so I'll wager everything.

[LabattBlue]

I want the position of personal security guard for Adams.  Primary task...keep him away from Terry and Kim and vice versa.  
 

I will also screen all his calls and emails.
