Kevyn Adams appears to me to be a significantly better leader than Botterill. Going out on a limb here, but I think the man is going to be extremely good at knowing what he doesn't know, and knowing where to seek the answers.

He handles questions a lot better than Botterill that’s for sure. But is way more polished than Murray. He still has a lot to do to prove he is capable though

From Friedman

Hearing new “target date” of Jan 1 is being planned for by NHL/NHLPA. This does not guarantee season starting New Year’s Day, but replaces Dec 1 as the current target. (Potential training camp would be beforehand.) This could change in the future — but that is where we stand now.

Have to assume it will be something like a 42 game season and will all be inter division

You get a Pibb Xtra.

Hey now, mr. pibb isn’t all that bad. I mean he skipped medical school but it was probably to Party and who doesn’t like a soda that parties.

He sounded genuine about listening to trade offers on 8. Last year it was a pretty firm "not gonna trade it"

Could be some fireworks today. We'll see

I read Corey Pronmans article from last night suggesting he’s heard about Jack Quinn linked to us as well.

It would be a Buffalo move to take Quinn ahead of the likes of Rossi/Lundell/Holtz

Aren’t seeking the answers easy....

Step 1 - respect the yacht
Step 2 - if it doesn’t respect the yacht, ask Kim...

John SHannon making great points.

You are going to see short term 2 year deals that a player will take less to let the cap increase in two years and then take the big deal.

Maybe Adams needs a ship to shore radio at KBC to check in with the yacht?

I guess Johnson has given the Bolts a list of 7 teams he would go to.

That doesn't surprise me, and not because of the Pegulas. I would guess that production of those are delayed because of Covid.

The royal blue uniforms aren't even available for sale on the normal Sabres website or at the Sabres store.

If drsydale is still there then that's my choice

If not holtz as I am assuming Rossi is taken

If it's forward either holtz or raymond

So pissed when GB let him go. He was great in GB, and they just let him walk. For a team that always struggled on defense, it made 0 sense. They have corrected it now with Amos, Savage, Alexander, and King. But man did that hurt Rodgers chances to get a second ring in that window.

He's a super fun player. Big hits, good in coverage, key hands team member for on-side kicks, back up kick returner and seems like a good dude.

A GM that deals in absolutes has already failed.
