I fire Granato and staff immediately. I immediately hire like 5 more scouts.
I then have an intense, detailed discussion with Adams. I want his vision/plan. If, as I think, he doesn't really have a plan....he's gone.
Praying for some sick bastard who sincerely wants to keep both
Continuity, as in keep things nosediving in a rapid descent? Talking about both government and Sabres hereBeware the disaster scenario like in the USA State of the Union Address where both houses of Congress are assembled, the cabinet, the Judiciary, etc., they keep 1 or 2 members of the cabinet in a locked room in case something tragic happens so there is continuity in the government...
Matt Ellis, GM
Marty Wilford, Head coach.
This is the way.I fire Granato and staff immediately. I immediately hire like 5 more scouts.

His plan was flawed from the outset. You cannot draft your way to the playoffs. You need to parlay draft capital to acquire pieces. His inexperience will prevent any coach worth their salt to steer clear. Nobody is going to want to work for him.Fire Granato, Keep Adams.
Don't go another GM yet. The vision has been volatile enough. 100% a new coach though, not even a question.
Adams has esembled the most talent theyve had since the 05-07 days. He needs a coach to get more out of them.
The problem I see here is if you keep Adams, what if he needs to be fired within a year? What GM is going to want to come in and keep the existing HC on? Would Pegula be wiling to pay Granato, next years coach and a coach after that all at once?
I think it would be much cleaner to cut them both loose.
I'm not defending Adam's last 2 summers. Both were failures to me.His plan was flawed from the outset. You cannot draft your way to the playoffs. You need to parlay draft capital to acquire pieces.
