Meanwhile, Ruff said center Dylan Cozens missed Wednesday’s practice because of “a lower-body aggravation.”

“So really don’t know where he’ll be in the next couple of days,” he said. “It was bad enough to not practice.”

Defenseman Mattias Samuelsson also sat out the session with a lower-body injury.

“He won’t be available for the weekend, so we’re looking at him afterwards,” Ruff said.

Meanwhile, winger Beck Malenstyn missed practice after leaving Tuesday’s game with back spasms.

The Sabres got one forward back Wednesday. Rookie Tyson Kozak practiced after recovering from a nasty bout with the flu over the weekend.

Ruff also said winger Jordan Greenway, who has missed the last 22 games after undergoing surgery to repair a mid-body injury, is on track to return after the break. After Saturday’s road game, the Sabres play again Feb. 22.

“I watch him practice and he’s full go,” Ruff said. “I think if you needed him, if you were, let’s say this one of the biggest games, he would be knocking at your door to play. But he’s on his plan. The plan is to get him these practices before the break, put the extra work in during the break and be ready to go that first game coming out of the break.”

I am a harsh critic of KA. However, getting Zucker and Greenway have both been quality deals. If he can add two-three similar types of players, this roster would be so much better constructed and in general better.

Jock itch can be mighty uncomfortable.

Breaking NEWS!!!! Samuelsson is injured and will miss some time...  how about we assume he is on the injured list and you put out an availability list for him instead...

I actually think some of his moves have been pretty good. The Mitts for Bryam deal, at the moment, looks pretty good. The issue with Adams is not the moves that he makes, is the moves that he DOESN'T make.

A lot of people on this forum say hes so bad they don't want him making any moves. I totally disagree.  Make moves, please make them. If he's bad as a GM, its because he doesn't do enough.

BUT…..maybe he should NOT negotiate any new contracts….he really $hit himself with the long term deals.

Yeah, slightly more good than bad but....

Thompson good.  With the higher cap this will look like a very good deal.

Cozens Bad.

Dahlin...decent, but probably on the good side of things as the deal goes on. I'd shade toward the good side of things.

Power, TBD but not looking good now, but it was likely it was not going to look good in the first year or two.

Samuelsson bad.  But its such a low cost deal in the grand scheme, I can't fault a GM for taking a chance if it was only going to cost this and the thought they had something good.

So yeah, as a whole with those deals he is on the bad side of things, but I don't think its so bad that every one is a disaster.

How about we never let Kevin Adams make another hockey trade the rest of his life...

One of them should be a Dman.

A guy I used to work with always took vacation, sick days, bereavement days, personal leave etc whenever there was a need for all hands on deck. I told him to just mark down the days he would be at work on the calendar.
