What happens next? General manager Kevyn Adams, having been fired on Monday by owner Terry Pegula and replaced by Jarmo Kekalainen, is gone after a five-and-a-half-year run in which he failed to build the Buffalo Sabres into a playoff team.

The Buffalo Sabres are expected to hold a press conference at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday after they let General Manager Kevyn Adams go following over five years on the job. The announcement of Adams’ departure came on Monday as a playoff drought stretches on.
