Reinhart will never be the #1 center here, ever...

With the trade for ROR it gives you flexibility to move Reinhart (if you can get a 23 year old Norris Candidate for the next 10 years)

Given what Bylsma said you win with great defense first.

BTW a stacked forward team turns you into the Oilers...

who cares if he won't be a number one center here ever. it's a great problem to have we have 2 number 1 centers who gives a poop you keep them both it's easier to trade for a defenseman then a number one center

It's not about the trophy...ugh .

It's about being a top 5 defensemen in the league for the next decade on the Sabres blue line.

I think top 5 defensemen (OEL) is = to top 20ish (if he pans out) center (Reinhart)

my point is it's hard to find a number one center then it is a defenseman it took us how many years to get one?

Chara at this point is probably just as effective, or less effective as gorges. And his contract blows.
