this was very, very difficult for him. and that speaks to who Kevyn is; he did what he needed to do here, and he is not soft or hesitant. he is patient and purposeful. Donny is a fantastic coach, it just wasnt good enough here and now for him. the main takeaway is the message sent to that locker room. training wheels are off, boys. time to own it, and those players are very capable of the step-up needed here.

On the Terry Pegula front… why is it that he’s never in the press box for Sabres games and is “dealing with personal matters” and hasn’t addressed the media in 4 years.. but yet he’s at every Bills game and in the locker room with them after every win..????? He only has to deal with personal matters during Sabres games?

GM Adams is the main reason we are in this mess. He hired a rookie coach, neglected the goalie position, and screwed up the draft picks beyond the first pick. There is no reason to hate someone but Adams said it himself: there need to be credibility and that starts with Adams.

That said, it is pretty clear his job’s next if it doesn’t work out next season. Way too committed to some of these guys. MUST hit on the coach. He must get Cozens back. Tage back to his old self. Hold some of these players accountable for turnovers that lead to high danger opportunities.

My $.02: I like Adams a lot and I really think he's the right guy for the job. I think our drafting the last few years has been excellent. I love everything I hear from Jerry Forton and we're very solid in that area. Our pro personnel decisions need to be better. Whether that's on Adams or other guys on the pro personnel side (Jeremiah Crowe) is unclear, but if you look at our moves in free agency over Adams' entire tenure, they've been downright abysmal and have contributed nothing but blocking younger, more talented players. We need to hire the right coach, but if we don't also address that we're going to be building on a less than stable foundation.

His moves towards free agency appear to be abysmal, but that’s because people don’t listen to what he says in press conferences. He explains in detail why he doesn’t make those specific free agency moves. The moves he made are what a developing team needed at that point in time. Also a lot of players don’t want to come here yet or ask for too much.
@anordman9659

I strongly disagree. Draft picks are mediocre at best. The first pick is more or less a given and beyond that Adams is not impressive. He chose a worse version of Olofsson (Isak Rosen) when goalie stud Wallstedt was available. This was during a time when the Sabres were going through some goalie crisis. Speaking about goalies, do you think Adams job finding good goalies over the last 4 years is impressive? You build the team from the goalie and out, not from the forwards and in.

A statement needed to be made. We as fans knew there was a lack of accountability long ago. Inconsistent playing, was a sure sign. It felt like they either showed up or didn't. Almost every other game, Adams had to see that.

To expand on this, it’s not just Warwow (it’s a bunch of the older reporters who are near retirement) but your job is to ask questions and inform the public. Your job isn’t to ask questions laced in disgust and aggression to try and illicit a reaction from the players, coaches, GM, owner. Stop asking questions with a condescending, emotional tone like a fan would. You’re not a fan. You’re supposed to be doing your job. Be professional for god sakes.

I know some things he cannot say, but I do believe that WE NEED TO HIT / forecheck / intimidate the opposition with planned & smart aggressiveness. I’m not looking for 12 Matt Rempes, but maybe 2? Maybe a 3rd line and 4th line vet that wins A LOT of face offs? A true Veteran Goalie that can still play and backup UPL? (Still think Levi is a year away and that is OK for a goaltender). Looking forward to hopefully seeing Lindy Ruff, Craig Berube or Joel Quenneville as the next Sabres coach.

I'm old now, as in a senior citizen, and have been a Sabre fan since their inception, so like MANY of you, I've experienced some incredibly awesome Sabre teams throughout the years. Not lately though, and frankly, it's inexcusable. I hate seeing anyone lose their job in any capacity other than, obviously, certain situations, but the fact that this organization has MISSED the post season for thirteen straight years in a league where it's almost IMPOSSIBLE to do that without actually trying to, while they just watched this team, especially this year - after all the hope of the way last season ended with them "just" missing the playoffs by one point and having this new and "awesome" young goalie (I'll admit, I knew what he was - VERY average and perhaps even below average and this is NOT a post bashing the kid - and people were only excited about him because, STUPID as it may sound to say but I truly, TRULY believe this silliness - he was young and had a really cool sounding name. Show me where I was wrong ..... kid doesn't have it) and sitting idly by while doing nothing, sits in a bad place with me. Maybe half way through the year some message should have been sent based on how bad they started and were, AS USUAL, playing, instead of doing the status quo, which is NOTHING. Not crazy about this GM at all. As USUAL, as USUAL with this team, too little too late. Always NEXT year is the usual April rallying cry. Nothing less than truly sad with a franchise with so many awesome players and seasons under its belt, regardless of NO cups in over fifty years, to have them sit on their DAMN hands all season long to just "give it a little more time" while the league laughs at us is tough to take .................

Levi still has incredible potential. All 3 goalies were in a difficult situation for the 1st half of the year. Levi is doing great in Rochester. He's doing what should've been done from the beginning. He was brought up way to quick and injuries and play were part of that reason. Some of the FA he wanted to get went for insane money and could've put this team where they were 5 years ago. Sabs have arguably the best prospect pool in the league, 3 stud young defenders and alot of offensive talent. Some of that talent hasn't even played yet. Kuliich will be a 30 goal scorer next year watch. If Savoie is here on the Benson/Cozens line they're going to be so fun to watch
