P Ham speaking directly to Kevyn Adams on the morning show was pretty good.

Hey kevyn, remember when you said you would always pick up the phone and take my call?

“I’m very embarrassed,” defenseman Rasmus Dahlin said. “This is not acceptable. This sucks. It’s the worst.”

You mean Rivet and Peters saying you have to respect the coach.

That BS they were spewing.

It is Sabres run radio, so they are not allowed to question the powers that be.

My favorite quote was Rivet "You better believe in a different season Adams is making trades to shake this team up, but with a covid situation its harder to do so"

Adams's response (probably): that was when you were laid off and working for Channel 2.

RoR has a 7.5m cap hit. That year, he was paid a 7.5m bonus and a 1m salary. The idea that it was some kind of poison pill is massively exaggerated. It's a 1m difference.

Now, the idea that his lock-out and buy-out proof contract matters holds much more water. No idea why GMTM felt the need to go to such extremes.

Not really. It’s the sole reason he’s a Blue and not a Hurricane or Coyote who both has better offers with established top 6 NHL’ers but also teams who couldn’t afford the cash

Wish Dahlin would have punched him in the face after that play in front of the net yesterday, maybe Eichel would have woken up.

You are kinda missing the point I think. Good GMs are given leashes, but they still have to answer to their boss, the owners. The owners will always want to see the bottom line, even if some are fine going red for a little bit. 7.5 for one guys is a tough pill to swallow when he hasn't played one second for your team and just got done saying he lost his love for the game (with the obvious implication that he would get it back somewhere else, yes, but that was defiantly used against Buf). The timing of it 100% suggests he was instructed to get the best return without paying the salary. The deal was made so late before the bonus was due.

I don't think I'm missing the point here at all. I'm just looking at it from the opposite side. RoR was paid 1m above his cap hit that year, and then 1.5m below for the next 4. If that limited interest and prevented deals, that say a lot about his value at the time. 1 year later, 20 teams would be calling and no one would mention the 5m bonus.

This is all coming up because of Jack. He doesn't have this kind of baggage. Almost every team in the league is making a call if he becomes available.
