Kevyn Adams GM thread

[toddkaz]

Then probably I'll skip it.

I don't know if he will, there is a lot of stuff coming out on the internet right now from a lot of pundits but listening to Adams he doesn't sound like someone who is going to get fired.

I wish there was something we can do as fans to speed up the firing.

I haven't seen a single sane person who was happy with Adams work. Even local reporters like Lysowski and Fairburn are already clearly hinting that this guy has screwed up and he should go. The players are mad at him, they are not happy and I am sure some of them want to go. Terry is an ass who started this whole mess, I hate him.

Why does it feel like we could lose 15-0 and Adams will still have a job.

 

[TehDoak]

Realistically, it may get to a point where Adams simply cannot come back.

If:

- The players are unhappy with the direction of the team
- The fans are unhappy with the direction of the team

You can't bring him back. It'll be a diaster in the locker room and the ticket office.

You are heading into a disaster with Adams this summer. He has major RFA (Byram, Peterka, Levi, Quinn) decisions to make. He's cornered himself a bit with the the Norris trade and Zucker/Greenway contracts.

There is a very real possibility that this is a capped out team that in reality won't compete for a playoff spot next year if you bring Adams back.

There is talent here. There are assets here. This is fixable.

Adams has shown that he does not have the plan to make it better.

Truth Bomb that Adams is a clown and clueless.

I bet Pronger would be a better GM than Kevyn.

McLeod, Zucker, and Greenway were good acquisitions but Adams is perpetually chasing the wrong type of defensemen for this team.

In one tweet he showed more common sense than Kevyn has in 5 years. So we know he’s got that going for him.

I would also say he allowed an acceptance for his younger players in not playing a responsible 2-way game, meaning the forwards (Quinn and Peterka as posterboys for that). Having a line that lives and dies by how its center can handle the rest of the ice for 2 years when that center is also just a kid derailed this team each of the last two years.

This is where I remind people that prior to his injury…Jack Quinn had some of the best defensive impacts among forwards on this team and that kid line worked not because of how the center played…but how the wingers did

When Quinn went down for most of the year and came back wrong…that center fell off of a cliff. People in his new town can tell me how great he is as he gets caved in but they produce…and I will tell them that they should thank their wingers…not us.

And when he was hurt and is now a shell of his former self, having no option for a 2nd line has sunk them for a 2nd straight season. At least they've moved on from the era of just having the line of misfit toys.

Quinn made that line go for that 20 game stretch they were HOT..... 2 years ago now ugh

How about some "FIRE ADAMS" billboards?

We're 17 games away from it officially being 3 years ago.

But we're basically already there because this season is over for us.

Its not too late for Adams to bring someone in to mentor Power he is still learning. Lets see what Adams does in the off season. If he still refuses to bring in someone to mentor Power and have the same team going forward its going to be tough to watch next year.
