To be fair to Adams, this was intended to be a thread for the end of last season. Perhaps a different thread should be started to air grievances on this round of failure?

Not sure how a chunk of last season can't be put on him as the help he went out and got up front in Staal and Eakin while keeping Hutton around did more harm than good to that squad, as well as keeping the Ralph's horseshit generator plugged in behind the bench... which we have seen help f*** up another high-end pick. They pooched last year so hard that he had to make tear-down moves. He had a hand in that directly.
Other than Hutton still coming back, he at least tried to improve the team by getting a theoretical 2C and 3C in Staal and Eakin. I give him no credit for Zamboni Hall, because I’m sure that was all Terry.
Tried and flopped.
Once they signed Hall there was zero cap to ditch Hutton so they were forced to hope his eyesight had improved.Other than Hutton still coming back, he at least tried to improve the team by getting a theoretical 2C and 3C in Staal and Eakin.

In fairness, he hasn’t been any better.
I think a lot of that has to do with losing games 6-2, 7-4, 5-0 etc. Honestly I didn't expect them to win much but I expected or at least hoped for closer games 4-3 , 3-2 etc. Early in the season win or lose it felt like they were in every game albeit on unsustainable play by Anderson and Tokarski. Lately that has turned into complete blow-outs where they just don't even look like the same team most nights. Now obviously having your top 2 goaltenders out is a huge part of that, but the complete lack of team defense sure doesn't help.The most predictable thing has been watching people go from fine with a bad team on paper to not fine with a bad team on ice
Better to try and flop than not try and flop.
Accurate, but infuriating.... this rebuild is different than the previous 3 in my Eyes
