They just moved down from 11 to 14 and gained a 2nd rounder. I wonder if they’re going to package Skinner and a 2nd in a trade instead of a buyout. It doesn’t make sense to move down now w/o seeing who’s available at 11. 🤷🏼♂️
Perfect. Nothing like adding more draft picks instead of trading for grown men who can start helping this September. Great start Kevin “I must have the youngest team in the NHL” freaking Adams. But hey I’m keeping an open mind, I’m ready for the big trade that nets the Sabres even just one good quality veteran to help this season. After all Adams said he told every GM he’s open to anything. 😂😂 Sorry, I couldn’t keep a straight face after typing that last sentence.
@@WideTier He publicly said he wants a top 6 winger, a 3rd line C, and some hard to play against guys on lines 3 and 4. Can he follow through? Buying out a 30 goal scorer and adding draft picks is a confusing start for sure, but it’s still early.
@@grumpyscott17 That sounds great to me. But like I said, knowing Adams, I’ll settle for just ONE veteran NHL player via either trade or UFA signing that actually helps the Sabres make the playoffs under Ruff….just one, not on the current roster.
Adams said moving from 11 to 14 and acquiring 42 took weeks to do. Can someone interview other GMs on how long it takes them to start and finish a deal? I’m getting the feeling Adams’ deals fall through because the other GM gets tired of all internal discussions and waiting so they move onto someone else to make a similar trade.
I don’t know why everyone wanted to much out of the draft anyways we’ve drafted stars for 10 years I like what he’s doing. Start using these picks as trade currency we want veterans NOW!
In 2022, Adams signed a multi year contract with undisclosed information. If we miss the playoffs again I bet we are stuck with him till his contract is over, instead of buying him out
Why would a team’s GM come out and explicitly state his objectives before the draft and FA? “We are going to trade assets for an established NHLer, sign a guy in FA for a long contract, and draft XYZ player”
The gu'ys a wheeler-dealer! Can't wait to see what other draft picks he acquires for draft picks. Let's see if he can get into low double-digits and then pick every midget in the draft! Again.
All the more reason to stick to his plan. The lesson of all the former Sabres winning cups is we need to see a rebuild all the way through. Not try to rush it and have it collapse as a result. The good times are coming!
Adams says; “….You don’t win the Stanley Cup without being….basically everything we’re not and haven’t been for 13 years now….” Or something to that effect. And wow, nothing like lining up his excuses the day before the draft for not making any deals or free agent signings by blurting out; “….and maybe they don’t want to live in Buffalo….” Sabres Nation to Kevin Adams: It’s your freaking job to convince them that Buffalo is the best place to live for at least 1 to 7 years!
Adams is not incompetent. We just have a fanbase that can’t see the bigger picture and comprehend what he’s saying with his plan, even though he literally explains everything point by point.
When will we in Buffalo have a GM again that actually has the ability to lead this team? Adams is impossible to root for because he has shown zero skills at the job. Pegula and Adams have destroyed this organization and beaten the fanbase into the ground. I literally yhink our only hope is Adams fired and Pegula selling. Neither of these people can win or even seem to care.

@@WideTier I hear you. No more Comrie’s, Jost’s, or E.Johnson’s.

Moving down doesn't really fill me with hope... hopefully that 2nd rd pick is earmarked for something bigger
My take that…GMA may have had his eye on someone at 14 all along per scouts
Why does “we’re open to anything” sound like we don’t have a plan or we don’t know where this team is headed.
Why would a team’s GM come out and explicitly state his objectives before the draft and FA? “We are going to trade assets for an established NHLer, sign a guy in FA for a long contract, and draft XYZ player”
He is just starting negotiations. It would be unprofessional of him to give out details. What are you expecting from him right now?
Haha so true!
Not expecting much from Adam’s after listening to this interview.
What are you expecting? Negotiations have barely started.
The gu'ys a wheeler-dealer! Can't wait to see what other draft picks he acquires for draft picks. Let's see if he can get into low double-digits and then pick every midget in the draft! Again.
@@bjarczyk GMA just sounded like past years… no excitement. Sort of depressing… who wants to come to buffalo, fill a hole. Blah

Skinner, Krebs, maybe Ostlund, and #43 to CBJ for Boone Jenner. Can play anywhere from 1C to 3C, great in the room, high character veteran.
DRAFT…A…ROSTER…READY…RUSSIAN F!

Kinda getting “well we’ll try but if nothing happens we did our best” vibes

Adams team not pwhl playoff ready
Adams is not it WE DONT WANT MORE prospects
Worst gm in the league sick of being a development team for the real nhl clubs
Conservative GMKA is incompetent
Just a rumor but… heard GMA possibly looking at getting Okposo as UFA cause of the SCF pedigree.
