By me. I’ve heard it from someone who would know this, and I posted it months ago on here. It’s shaping up like that now

Well hopefully Adams has his big boy pants on.

There are a lot of avenues he can take this offseason to make this team competitive.

Botts may not have given him cap space, but he has as much roster flexibility as one can ask for taking over as a GM.

If his first trade is any indication, I don't have high hopes

The Staal deal is excellent value, but it's another band aid and shows absolutely nothing to Eichel in terms of commitment to winning long term

He got Staal because he was a former teammate of the GM and they saved money by making that trade.

Nothing is free.

Thousands if not more people have spent time talking about Bobby Mac-N-Cheese's tweets about Eichel that literally say nothing that wasn't known in March. He's wasted the most precious commodity we all have.. Time. I'm also ok with it, because I'm a degenerate. Twitter is McDonald's.

Bob McKenzie
@TSNBobMcKenzie.

Oct. 1

I've heard from a few sources that some hockey fans are more inclined to read my vague, meaningless tweets than to pay a dollar for actual content. That could change of course, but that's the sense I'm getting right now.

Buffalo saved 1M in actual dollars for the better player at a position of need, band aid or not

He saved money.

Staal is a natural C.

He's still productive.

And he got him for Johansson.

The difference in understanding 80’s from 90’s is knowing your numbers, which is then used for the understanding of math and how to apply it.

He's super old

His play at some point very soon will fall off

He's a bridge to Cozens, not any long term solution

It doesn't show Eichel any type of long term commitment to winning. It says, "Here we did something"

They need to make a really big move, or 2-3 pretty sunstantial ones

But those first two arguments are 100% moot. He's only here for one year.

He's also, by every account, a true professional, which will help the youngins, and will help Jack immensely in the dressing room.

There's every indication that Adams isn't close to being done, from what everyone around the league hears and reports.
