There actually was a plan and it wasn't a bad one. Sign Reimer as backup to UPL while Levi continues to develop. The frustrating thing is he deviated from that plan.
It only is a problem if it becomes a problem
But, if one of those 2 get hurt or under perform we currently have no NHL ready option to call upon.

Rochester needs a good goalie too. They don’t have one. What’s his solution to that?There actually was a plan and it wasn't a bad one. Sign Reimer as backup to UPL while Levi continues to develop. The frustrating thing is he deviated from that plan.

I’m guessing he’s going to be scrambling to find one come mid-season.

He was such a Mickey Mouse hire in the first place. Can we get a professional to run this hockey team?
I want him gone as much as the next guy, but who are you replacing him with at this point of the year?

And it wouldn’t make a difference. Whoever takes the job would have to convince TPegs that a five year plan he blessed was folly. Would TPegs allow the new guy to trade those players “who want to be here” for guys that want to win? Doubtful. Would TPegs allow the new guy to hire a new coach and let that coach hire his own staff? Highly doubtful. And lastly, assuming you could find a trade partner it is likely that the player(s) sought would nix any deal via NTC. The organic model was folly from the start and now is the only viable path going forward. It will take extreme luck and a lot of time for this group to luck in to the post season and even then it will be fleeting.

A lot of people will want the GM job. At the very least, you could put Karmanos and Ventura in there for the time being and see what happens.

If nothing else, firing Adams will tell fans that doing less than is needed year after year is not acceptable. It will tell the next guy that doing nothing is not an option.
Not firing Adams will just tell everyone he’s doing a totally acceptable job. Which means saving money is the only goal he needs to achieve to keep the job.
Because here it is as simple as it can be. If he really has every resource available to him as he claims…then failing again will be the end of the line.
