Fire Kevyn Adams

[Courier-Express]

D-F-L. There’s no shining this turd. KA is crushing the young talent we do have. 

[Randall Flagg]

We've gone a long time without Kevyn making his case for being a competent, capable GM to lead us out of this mess. 

He lurches further in the opposite direction as the reality of the current state of our franchise settles in as the day goes on

Leaving: Eichel

Certainly steps in the right direction. 

Enough!  This guy has no idea what he’s doing.  Fire KA.

He’s the tank commander.  The plan is very simple. We will spend at the floor and tank to get a top pick. Jack will be traded fir picks and prospects. Money will not be spent on high priced coaches or general managers.  In 2 years we will have a lot of good young talent and then we will start spending again.

Don't focus on Adams. Look above him, yes, looking at you Mr.&Mrs. Pegula.

It certainly appears the goal is re-Reino re-Eichel. 

I mean... I love the Sabres and all. But maybe I should just sorta go into carbonite for the next couple years. And then Cozens can accept only bridges and request a trade.

Exactly…i know we have suffered long enough….but the result of the previous tank was a mess…the only thing to do is tear it down and have someone else take a swing at it.

It's helpful to lay it out like this, it shows really quickly we took a last place team and made it significantly worse. at least so far. 

I'm not saying he should be fired - assuming the plan is to tank it may be going exactly according to plan

This is a full all on tank. We won’t win 25 games next year. Terry has destroyed this franchise. 

[pastajoe]

I was so optimistic going into the draft that we’d now be celebrating the great new young lineup obtained from all the trades. Now I’m even more depressed than last year.

Terry sell the team for the sake of the integrity of hockey! You're clueless!

I don’t think Buffalo will get more than 15

You might be right and that’s not hyperbole 

[GoPuckYourself]

This place is worse than the Buffalo Bills message board back in the day during the 17 year drought... No lie! It's frightening how negative this group is.

We're already firing GM Adams? You people are insane lol

Will there be any fans left?

Sad thing is if things go as usual the fans will show up. This allows current owners to remain.

I don’t think anymore. Maybe early in the season. By New Years there will be nobody there but opposing fans.

The Bills message board was right.  The GMs that followed Butler up to Beane were terrible and deserved to be fired.  Same goes for the coaches who followed Levy.

Negativity follows a team has spent the last 7 years playing under the worst GMs and coaches in the history of the franchise.

There is no negativity. Just a factual understanding this roster is not NHL level and we are on the trajectory to have the longest playoff drought of all time. We just reset the bar for terrible.

Did it ever seem like Ullmark or McCabe wanted to stay with the Sabres?

Probably would have if Buffalo had ever been competent

With Eichel and the higher priced players the Pegula's were losing money as fans stopped going to watch a bad team.  If this team doesn't get off the ground soon and start winning the financial losses will ensure.  I'm confident Terry will keep payroll down as a result.  

Bills fans here watched the team be a feeder for the rest of the league.  The only thing that broke the cycle was an owner who hired good managers and spent.  Lot easier to do in the NFL when you get a massive revenue sharing check every year and finally found competent leadership.  Do not see that happening with the Sabres right now.

Yea like firing GMs after 1-2 seasons really worked for this team.
