Keeping Matt Ellis and letting Peca go was a mistake, not acknowledging that Ellis is a bad coach shows how this organization thinks.

Agreed.

Each moves has such a ripple effect throughout the organization. It reveals to me how little (if any) structure is in place with this front office.

This will be the 4th rebuild, this is the 3rd time IMO that the major concerns are up in the suites not on the ice. Regardless of this fact, that forces you to move out talented players (usually entering their prime) to ensure the new regimes culture is at the standard it needs to be at without the bad taste in some players mouths.

VGK was built on a mound of unwanted players and a will to succeed with great coaching.

These players that GMs constantly glaze over, a lot of them are in need of a different opportunity. These players can likely be had for a reasonable price. Yet the guy in charge won't make these moves, and will settle on comfort and known quantities instead.

Running it back was yet another sign of gross negligence.

Krebs had 22pts in 48games in his first year with us. Sorry to say, but that is good for a 21yo. His ppg pace has went steadily down each year as he's gotten more and more time with SirFalls and Okslowpoke, yet less overall ice time.

Or we need to sign some players who are ABOVE replacement level. That'd be pretty cool.

Levi and Kulich for Skunk. I’d throw in a first too. I know it’s too early to tell, but feels like another fail.
Apparently Adams was quoted saying Kulich is not on the table for discussions. Why?

Don Granato says on WGR that Owen Power is going to miss tonight’s game and likely “a few more”.

Said it’s not a long-term injury, but that he’s probably out for at least a week.

From what I was told, if Kevin Adams was so concerned about this season he would make his moves now and not wait for other teams or the trade deadline. To much loyalty for Okposo, Girgensons and Johnson. 3 players that have no business being here still. The players are saying it with out actually saying it after games, WE NEED A CHANGE, this is not working and it seen daily. Can't blame all the coaches, players are to blame also, leaving the team hanging out to dry with these 3 goalies was a very bad decision. There is no urgency from Adams or Pegulla.

dems do that in every major city when it gets dark outside

but those people gunned down don't matter to the media or dems


they killed that story real quick when the shooter in texas was a pro palestine female that goes by a male and brought her kid in the church to be a prop before shot started shooting

I think she only hit 2 people and one was her son

maybe she should have spent less time on tick tock and more time at the range

Very hard to argue the logic. 6’6 puck moving defensemen don’t come around very often. I don’t think they realized he’d be this soft though

Boy, if there wasever a time for a legitimate 3rd Party, it is now.
It is being teased, but nothing concrete. Maybe as we get closer/into to summer?

I still have faith in him, the coaching staff that cannot push him forward, not so much.
