How many weeks, I mean months, did everyone wonder if Olofsson was the issue, or Casey, or both, before they finally took action to find out. - kingcong39

Kickboxer on BBC America right now. Some say one of the biggest snubs in Oscars History. Daniel Day Lewis won best actor for his role of Christy Brown in My Left Foot over JCVD. Generational Talent Actor JCVD not even nominated for his leading role in Kickboxer. The Academy must not have known he was the Predator before he got poop canned.
It’s a travesty.
NOT - Hatboro_Swords
Jean Claude is the best actor of all the action stars to come out of the 80’s and he honest to god should have been nominated at least a couple of times.
Go watch JCVD and tell me that monologue didn’t make you cry like a b¡tch.
Not to mention, he should have gotten a nomination for Best Supporting Actor in Expendables 2.
You can hate on him all you want, but if this doesn’t make you smile, you’re crazy:

Conclusion is Adams likes deals involving future considerations a bit too much...? - kingcong39
Your guess is as good as mine, it’s all over the place. |

Now his UFA signings:

Other than drafting 1st and early 2nd round prospects, there is no pattern to show what Adams is trying to build, it looks like he is tossing out prayers and hoping something works, with no timeline on when those prayers are answered. |

Well hopefully it works. The lights are very dim at this point and that's because they gave me hope last season. This off-season so far has dimmed that hope again. I hope Adams plan works cause I Love Hockey and the Sabres but I am close to turning those lights completely off. |

What is different now vs this:
"Buffalo Sabres general manager Jason Botterill is still relatively new to the job, but one tendency he’s shown is his will to take on low-risk, high-reward players. Botterill doesn’t believe in building through free agency and isn’t likely to chase the big fish. Instead, he’ll look to buy low in trades and on the open market.
Last offseason Botterill took a chance on Nathan Beaulieu for only a third-round pick. The 25-year-old defenseman didn’t have a great season, but still has one more year remaining on his contract.
Benoit Pouliot was another flyer that Botterill took a shot on that was probably a wash. He wasn’t great at times but did score 13 goals on the season.
The other buy-low move that did work out was the trade for forward Scott Wilson. He came over with no points and ended the season with 14.
This summer there are few higher profile players that Botterill can target as buy-low options to improve his hockey club."

The only difference is quantity of 1st round picks for Adams, which cost him 3 nhl seasons and the existing core. I agree with the notion the core had to go, but to only get Tuch back while the rest of the return is based on promise. With the other weaknesses Adams has, he has backed himself into a corner and the solution to get out requires him to go through his weaknesses as GM. |

What other organization or team would allow this? - washedup20
Really similar in some ways. Probably the quantity of assets at his disposal the last couple years for Adams is the only difference. |

Bills running back Nyheim Hines has suffered what is expected to be a season-ending knee injury away from the team's facility, source confirms, as NFL Network first reported.
Bills lose a RB and the team's primary punt/kick returner going into camp before training camp starts. |
