It takes a verybrave, confident man to walk away from a king's ransom and a treasure chest full of young, skilled hockey players like Jack Eichel, Sam Reinhart, Rasmus Ristolainen, Zach Bogosian, Evander Kane, Zemgus Girgensons, Tyler Ennis, Hudson Fashhing, Nikita Zadorov, Mark Pysyk, Jake McCabe.

Toronto be damned. It's a greasy move for Babcock and his agent to take Buffalo's best financial offer to the Leafs for them to meet or beat it. If the Leafs are the "winner" in the Babcock race, then so be it. He won't have much fun coaching a losing team for the next 4-5 seasons. Babcock will surely have a ball tasering veteran malcontents Dion Phaneuf and Phil Kessel on a weekly basis to get them to play to their lofty contract statuses. More on that later.

No he wouldn't. Reinhart has done little to justify his draft position. He appears to be too small, too slow and unwilling to battle at the NHL level. Heck, the guy hasn't even been playing centre for most of his NHL career. Just like his older brother Griffin, Samson appears to be a bust. Another reason the Sabres rebuild has been a failure. You can't miss with the #2 overall pick.

If the Ducks do decide to trade for a centre ice man, it will be for a journeyman. Not some jabroni with two goals. They will buy time until Getzlaf and Kesler get back in January

Trading Reinhart to Anaheim now would get Botterill a great young, top four D in Brandon Montour or Josh Manson, and D prospect Jacob Larsson.


You are so franking delusional it's embarrassing. And stop calling him Samson for frank sake

- westcoastleaf


His name is Samson.

"Samson Edward Reinhart (born November 6, 1995) is a Canadian professional ice hockey centre who currently plays with the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League (NHL). Reinhart was selected second overall by the Sabres in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft."


And yes Garth is delusional if he thinks that would be the return. You don't trade a player at his lowest value.

I'm well aware that is his full name. But he obviously doesn't go by that. Never heard him once called that other than in a garf blog. Julio jones' real name is quintorris but I don't hear any reporters or writers or anyone else call him that.

Kessel only has the one left, so that would be extra cruel.

Yeah, for some reason Kessel's nut was the first thing that popped into my mind. I'm not proud of it.

Also, I hear that not only Pens scouts, but the GM, Owner and Head Coach, will be in attendance for the Sabers game tonight. I should make for an interesting blog....
