Kevyn Adams GM thread

[Chainshot]

Murray's downfall was he neglected the defense. I believe he would of got us there but unfortunately he had his way of doing things and didn't care what Pegula thought or said.

Big and dumb when the league was moving toward puck movement and mobility. And then having a coach who needed a Letang and instead had... Letaint.

Plus the mix of personalities was hardly conducive to success. But probably a lot of fun though.

Following the Kings build when Darryl Sutter was roughly 90% of the reason of their success was certainly a choice.

What this team desperately needs is a super shrewd talent evaluator who is capable of spotting guys who are undervalued and pulling out gems from a bargain bin. Kevyn is clearly NOT that person.

Absolutely, Zito is a master at this, Fitzgerald is also doing well, some other GMs. Adams doesn't even try to do this. He had a free Fabbro in front of his nose, and in the summer Kovacevic for a mid pick, no reaction.

Why is he still employed?

He's also decided to over value a below mediocre data department.

Doing a lot of lifting with the term “department”.

I literally cannot fathom. He’s a year away from breaking the NHL record for longest GM tenure for missing playoffs consecutively and it was by a start up expansion team. (Doug MacLean/Columbus)

The company laptop ?

I wouldn't say a master at it. He has had some hits and some misses, but he swings

We need a GM who will listen to Pegula tactfully and carefully, but do what he thinks is right.

This is a paradox

No one who will do what they think is right would listen to begin with

They have to fire him before the game on the 31st so the Rayzor ceremony doesn't end up like Ceaucescau's final address to the Romanian people right???????

He’s a loser who can’t get a better job, he deserves nothing for the bullshit he’s been slinging for the past umpteen years. Him and Dumlevy just happened to be standing closest to Terry when he was handing out those jobs.
