Should Buffalo Sabres fans be on watch for Kevyn Adams to be fired?
The Buffalo Sabres lost again, this time to the Colorado Avalanche, and they’re now six points out of a playoff spot. With the season going off the rails fast, should we be on the lookout for Terry Pegula to fire Kevyn Adams? There are a couple of signals that point to the answer could be yes. Should we expect a new GM or coach to do any more with this team right now than the current regime is?
Plus, what went wrong against the Avs, and why Joe actually is interested in a bet on the Sabres to make the playoffs.

Hell yes. Lindy needs to go also.
Terry Pegula is dealing with the health of his
Wife, the Bills and a billion dollar stadium build. I doubt he even remembers that he owns the Sabres.
There is nothing that is going to happen unless fans boycott the building and protest out in front. You have to embarrass Terry to get him to even care. Anyone who thought this year would be different based on the roster to start the season I legitimately hope they are seeking professional help. This team’s goal song should be I hate myself for loving you. Even knowing thy were at best the 25th best team in the NHL I watch and get hurt every time.
haha, the MINIMUM a serious organization would do is fire Adams. But here we are Sabres fans….here we are… in glorious Pegula hockey heaven!
The betting odds comment is not super surprising. Lots of hockey left, six pts out versus the Bills on the teetering edge of a wild card spot and a shorter season with bad trends currently.
Is this also not just a result of the endless injuries? You have basically a top 2 line out with Benson, Zucker and Kulich out, nevermind the loss of Dahlin.
When the team was healthy while still not perfect was in games, collecting points even reached 3rd in the division.
Ill steer GM blame for no depth but any NHL team losing a top D man and a full top two line of players will create struggles
Seasons over.
One month in and the Sabres are eliminated already
Its not just the GM that needs to go, its the entire front office. No promotions form within. New GM, new team needs to come in with fresh eyes, with zero connectoin to this franchise or any players on it.
What are they waiting for? Even if you LIKE Adams, this isn't working. This isn't fun. There is no hope to even hold onto.
I think there is internal problems with our team players because they're a better team than what they're showing if I was Lindy I would put those boys on the ice and I'd work their asses off until they can walk anymore and then do it again
Im not an expert on business but i worked for a jew who owned a major insurance company and a bicycle shop. The bicycle shop was his write off. Anytime the shop would prosper he would get pissed. Terry had 16 years and its getting worse. Im thinking Sabres are a write off and Terry can gaf less. Its sad and its never going to change with a owner like Terry
you can't bring in Tortorella with this young of a team they just don't mesh
Not expecting it, nor will I ever get my hopes up, as far as I'm concerned Adams has a lifetime job and nothing will change
E-Sack Rose-Ann
Ownership, management and coaches need to go. Reminds me of Mylnick, Dorion, crappy coach days in Ottawa. Things happened and team got sold. Now terrific owner that want to always win, new management that will do whatever it takes to win, a coach that taught them to play for defensive as well as offensive and they finally made the playoffs. I know you hate Ottawa but these two teams were so similar both talented teams with no direction just in different times. 🤞
I think Adams should be moved up the list. I mean, he's got two 1st overall dmen on the ice. This isn't Detroit or Vancouver where they're not allowed to win the draft lottery. Buffalo has had plenty of lottery "luck", they just squander their picks…who then go on to raise a cup for another team.
Fire Terry
I've been on the watch for 4 years lmao.
Full clean house imo.
The commentator guy asks, should we be on the firewatch for the GM Kevin with a Y Adams.
That’s like Captain Smith on the Titanic after the iceberg ripped it to shreds asking should I have not been going so fast
I see a Adam’s extension coming, this years excuse will be do to the injuries
Injuries will be the excuse as to why Adams will keep his job along with Lindy. Let's also remember that if Lindy goes does anyone really think it will be Torts or Deboer that will get the job ? no it will be Seth Appert because that's how Pegula will do things. That should set us back 5 more years.
Detroit is light years ahead of buffalo. Biggest difference is that they develop their young players rather than just rushing them into the NHL. Adam’s never has learned how to develop a prospect. Slow small steps rather then panic aka the buffalo sabers.
Adams should so get a Pink Slip stocking stuffer , in lieu of being jettisoned into the sun He should be relegated into Regina " The Land of Misfit Toys , as thats all he is is a disrespected no hockey sense or contact / track record in his favor to rely on . The guys a hand puppet . The end !
Young team? Top players in late 20s & some early 30s many have seasons worth of experience. Torts would be ideal coach, call players out & demand more out of them. Finally abandon 3 goalie roster & bring up LEVI or else trade him. He is ready than ever to be the guy .
Joe , Joe , Joe ….. if Elmer Fudd was going to Adams , he would have done it in the off-season . And he ain't gonna pay Torts for at least 4 – 5 mill. a season .Torts would say thanks but no thanks , always. Nobody is going to Buffalo , and they ALL want out of Buffalo . That's the truth .
this team ~sighs~is as record goes in last 5 years 172(W) -188(L)-36 OT losses …..enough CLEAN THESE BONEHEADS OUT! Adams is useless so pretend its a fire drill ,as its time to burn it down . Total ineptitude ! That takes work to be that bad !
Kevyn Adams should have been gone last season. He is still here because he is Terry's yes man.
