Wow, that's so annoying when they put up a full screen video showing the person who scored the goal WHILE the puck is in play!

ehhhh at least nobody scored on the play, although carrier looked really strong on the puck
edit: though i did kind of feel compelled to "make some noise" while sitting on the couch

I blame Nolan when the Amerks lose.

I am glad you finally get it . Coach Theo can't coach and never should have been hired . And 1St round picks should not have to earn their ice time or what line they are on ! It should be like little league non travel teams or all star teams . Everyone gets to play whether they deserve to or not !

I wasn't gonna do it, but I feel after 8 games it's kind of sad

John Scott has more goals than Matt Moulson, Drew Stafford, Cody Hodgson, and Chris Stewart combined.

So you have been at all the practices ? Good to know . When do you have time to work ? The kid needs to go back to junior . Get a little bigger and a little faster . No doubt he has the tools . Just not ready for the NHL yet . No shame in that .

I hate when people say he has to earn it. He is a elite athlete who has earned the right to be the second pick. Why not play him 15 minutes a night for 9 games and see what happens. How has a guy like Mitchell earned it.

Ever played any sport at a high level ? You have to earn it . Goes for anyone on the team . Look what happened to Grigorenko when he did not earn it . He finally got it . Now he is earning it and should be here shortly as soon as Reinhart goes back to junior. No one on this team has earned anything unfortunately except Girgensons , Ennis , Myers and Enroth . That is where the whole team as so bad.

Pretty much this. Your work ethic and sense of urgency has to match your skill.

That's true though. About half our home grown guys never had to beat anybody out for a roster spot. I remember when ennis was up and comming, Connolly got hurt and ennis stepped in to center hect and pommer and that line was red hot. He also had to battle up and comming prospects like Kennedy and gerbe. Foligno kinda earned his stripes but stafford really was handed a roster spot. Weber was just in the system long enough where the sabres started needing roster spots at defense. Flynn did good at the ahl level but he never did enough to earn a roster spot on the sabres. Man I remember when we had a team where kotalik and pomminville were call ups and they were scoring for us and still couldn't stay on this roster.

He is on here all the time evidenced by the times I scroll through here, can't be getting much work done the way I see it.
Must be sitting on the end of a bar most of time ala Norm.
I'll blame Nolan for that too.

It should be all about results. Both of our franchises have had plenty of good "practice players" that have never delivered when it matters over the years. When the games are played for real, very few players doing anything of real value. Not to mention, Coach Theo has been complimenting Reinhart's efforts in practices as of late. So unless he's a liar for sport, that argument holds no water either.

He has 3 more games . should be his last as a SAbres this season at the end of the month. (3 left) He is at the bottom of the player stats for the team. If anything he gets from his tryout is what it takes to play in the NHL. Up to him to grow from it.

Oh look! Attacking what someone does for a living instead of addressing the real argument! That hasn't been done here before in the past 24 hours, ever!

That will happen when you're buried on the 4th line. Part of good coaching is putting players where they can best succeed. The past 3 regimes, including this one, have been very poor at that.

Could be he can't handle the amount of ice time the other lines get.
