According to Elliott Friedman of SportsNet, Over the weekend, "I started to hear the name Sam Reinhart, And I think a lot of people were talking about that because Sam Reinhart was kind of demoted in the lineup and he had gotten off to a really rough start. It wasn’t all his fault. As you said, a lot of the team was getting off to a rough start. But his name started to come around there."

“And when I looked into it, I think the thing they feel and the thing you kind of mentioned is it’s a new regime in Buffalo. You don’t want to make snap decisions that you’re going to regret later. I think that they feel that five games into a season you’re not necessarily going to do something simply because you feel the need to do it."

“Now, could I see a situation where Reinhart becomes available later in the year? Maybe. But I think that the Sabres are kind of looking at it right now as, ‘This is too soon. We still have some work to do to really discover what we’ve got here."

“But I wouldn’t be surprised if his name starts popping up maybe later in the year if things don’t solidify.”

I still remember the 2013 World Junior semi's where Jake McCabe victimized him quite badly.

i just watched the highlights from last night, looks like going high on him needs to be the gameplan. He kind of slumps his shoulders when he goes into the butterfly. He looks like hes using his big core area and bringing his arms into to eliminate the 6 and 7 holes but we's leaving the high stuff open

Is it true that Subban is playing tonight? If so, Jack's mantra needs to be "shoot, shoot, shoot" and let his linemates play garbage collector
- jcragcrumple



Yes. Yeah he won the other night, but that doesn't mean squat.

Jack needs to quite his i wont shoot play he has been doing.. i saw several times he could have taken the puck to the middle of the ice and got a clean shot but he passed it and it was either a bad angle shot from kane or the pass was deflected

Agreed. No reason to get cute with a rookie goalie. Get 35 shots on him

Agreed. He is a hell of a passer but he really does need to shoot more. Too many times he has looked for Kane or others when he should have shot.

But what does a skunk get?

A can of tomato sauce to get rid of the smell?

I'd love it if we could trade O'Reilly and Reinhart for Drouin and Galchenyuk

I just took a look at Montreal's stats. Holy lousy!

Drouin leads the team with 3 points. They've scored a total of 7 goals in 5 games.

Pominville is 1 assist away from tying Dale Hawerchuk for 8th all-time in assists for the Sabres

Edit: will probably pass Rene Robert next year for 5th all time


Edit 2: at 50 points this year and next, he will move into 5th all time in points, at 55 points, he'll be 4th

It's either Bylsma's fault, or Lehner's.

EDIT: Could be Mike Weber, too.
