Will Kevyn Adams keep his job past this season?
Sabres GM Kevyn Adams made the big trade last week. Will he make the next one? Sneaky Joe explores whether the Sabres will actually move on from Adams or not, using past history with Jason Botterill, Tim Murray, and Darcy Regier to try and figure it out.
Plus, another Sabres blowout loss, and another game where Mattias Samuelsson’s urge to stick up for teammates comes into question.

He better lose his job. Not counting on it with this horrendous owner
If he does keep his job… better find a new team to support 😞
Probably. Owner loves him. Does what he asks of him. This drought is almost impossible!
Chin straps were cool……. 15 years ago
Look where this team is at with pegula Hiring 3 INEXPERIENCED GM's. If pegula wants to stay cheap put Ruff in there
The vibes seem to indicate Kev🌴n Palmtrees isn’t going anywhere. That’s really depressing. He’s easily surpassed Taylor Hall, Slava Kozlov, Ville Leino, and the soccer coach as my least favorite Sabre of all time. My hope tank is empty as long as he’s making the decisions.
It’s clear the Sabres operate with their own cap at $10-million below the real cap.
The Sabres looked down the hallway to give Adams the GM job.
Point is the Sabres are a minor-league franchise without the people or resources to compete at the NHL level.
It’s hard to imagine having a lot to talk about from a Sabres 7-3 loss. My opinion is that if Pegula doesn’t fire Adams after this miserable season ends the night of April 17th, he should just sell the Buffalo Sabres entirely.
He's not going anywhere sadly
As an outsider, I believe the Sabres rush their prospects to the NHL and don't have enough veterans to support them. The NHL is not a developmental league. The key is the owner has to have the patience to let the GM have patience. If you rush a rebuild, you will end up starting over.
Owen Power is useless. Out muscled by a player 6 inches shorter and Benson has more hits than him this season. Softer than 12ply toilet paper
Just be happy Samuelsson didn't injure himself watching the other players fighting
If Terry doesn't want to pay guys to not work, that leaves out half our team…..
He 100% will be back, Terry is saving his Pegula bucks for yacht upgrades.
Cant say no one will take him when you say they all leave and win a cup…
GMKA needs to throw the entire organization at Mitch this off-season. 13-14-15 per . Bills season tickets , golf with Allen , endless la Nova BBQ wings , keys to the city , a statue outside the area , retire his number , Sabres hall of fame . My point being whatever it takes.
No buy-out Joe for Sammy. Trade him away for a draft pick or future considerations lol. San jose , Chicago would take him. Put him on non conditionally waivers.
You are so right the damn refs manage the Game
Your best show in a while
Hopefully he's gone a long a lot of other people
He keeps saying he's making moves to make the team better. But he keeps making the team worse. In 30th place now. Sabres keep going backwards.
wouldn’t be surprised if this clown pegula lets adam’s make these trades n fires him. then hire another adam’s that he can control. i’m so sick of the sabres being the pegulas science project.
No!
At this point everyone in a leadership position has to come together, discuss all issues and create a unified plan. Then do the complete opposite! Maybe then we will have a chance with these incompetents.
Can Sabres undo his damage even in 10 years ?
He needs to go. Hire a hockey president as well.
In any forward thinking franchise, he would be fired, but anything is possible with the pathetic ownership we are forced to live with.
I sure as hell hope you don’t keep yours!
No , he won't lose his job. If not in his current GM role, then he would become president of hockey operations. I wouldn't be surprised if Ruff takes another role within the organization. And a new coach and GM come into play. If Rick Tocchet is not back with canucks next season…..pay the man and get him here
Wow Sneaky one I doubt SHEIN was aware of the history. Also Norris started it. If Byrum has a history why did he fight?
Adams needs to go. Let him work for Pegula Sports & Entertainment in a different capacity if the Pegulas love him so much, BUT KEEP HIM AWAY FROM THE SABRES GM job. His contract is up. Getting a new, REAL GM gives the team a "CHANCE" at a re-set with their reputation among NHL players to get some decent players willing to come to Buffalo. But if Adams gets a new contract as GM, we will lose this team.
