I thought Adams has handled the last week well.

- Benson staying is well deserved

-Kulich and Rosen getting the call was desevred

- Levi going down to get more playing time was the right move

Coaching staff still needs to figure out how to utilize the roster properly, but the little things are starting to add up.

Can't complain about the 2 big decisions. Dodged the Kane bullet. Still need to figure out the 7D + Bryson.

Saw someone on twitter say UPL saved his job. Not too far from the truth. He kept things from getting really ugly.

Props to him for slowly, beginning to attempt to dig himself out of the hole he voluntarily jumped into.

Goaltending has been such a sore spot that it can be forgotten that they can steal games too.

Heck look at the run Swayman and Ullmark have been on this year to start.

Okay I asked for Corey Perry quotes and got nothing

Then where did you see it? Show me the link to what started all this nonsense.

I’ll be waiting.

I’m sure you will berate me and tell me I’m stupid instead of providing a link

Immediately stop with the 11 forwards and 7 d

That’s the next step

That’s on the coach, not the GM.

Along with the special teams struggles.

Along with the inconsistency of the play

Much of the same.

Wonder how good of coach Montgomery would look like if those two guys start to struggle. We have gotten a glimpse the last few games

Vanacek is a bad goalie and the Sabres scored on 2 out of 12 shots. Imagine if they played an average game.

Yep, if he kept his standard of play. Considering times change and upl and Levi have decided to switch, upl has earned majority starts and it's useless to keep Levi here. So we made it two months. Good thing I hedged.

The GM has a very large say in the personnel. Let's not pretend otherwise.

So Greenway comes back, does rosen sit in 12-6? Do they both sit in 11-7?

Blackhawks say Perry being cut is completely unrelated to him sleeping with bedards mom.

Personnel yes.

Does he set the lineup and dictate who plays how many minutes ? No.

No need to run 11/7 and sit Krebs those few games when they did. Especially when Ryan Johnson is the one getting 8 minutes.

Now they call up Rosen and Kulich to only sit one and play the other 6 minutes.

No you're right on that. But why is Don in the position that playing 11-7 makes them a better team?

I don’t think it makes them a better team, but he chooses to dictate his roster in that fashion.

Olofsson has been an asset, at least so far, and Krebs has been playing well as of late.

I don’t feel like sitting Krebs and now Kulich to save face on the depth of the d-corps was ever the right move.

Don't think KA is part of decision to go 11/7, or who comes out if they don't?

We’ll never know with 100% certainty.

But as a coach convential thinking suggests he can play who he wants with the 23 man roster he’s given (and has input on along with the GM too no ?)

I don't think there's any kind of divide there and Donnie influences roster decisions as much as KA influences lineup decisions.
