Post of the day. Kudos.

For the record, I'm not hating on Reinhart. I'm pointing out the hypocrisy of some about hating on ROR for his salary at a harder position, with the other attributes he brings, while getting ready to pay Reinhart big bucks

Next years forward lines
?-Eichel-?
?-ROR-Reinhart
Erod-Mittelstadt-Pominville
Wilson-?-?

Leftovers
Okposo Baptiste Bailey Girgensons Larsson Moulson

That's a great breakdown. Maybe 3 moves for 3 spots?

Hoping still babs or bailey pan out
1st round pick plays next year
Sign vanek or James neal

As with most draft picks. D men take longer . Would we have to wait 3-4 yrs for Dahlin to be a force . seems to be the norm.
- cabin

Dahlin would be a force by year 2 and that might even be generous.

You’re my boy blue!
Hahaha

Time to pour some drinks
Later f#ckers!

Even jack wasn't a force his 1st yr . Yes he was good ,but we had nothing on the team to compare him with . Sam was a yr or 2 behind him.

That looks pretty accurate barring any trades or fa signings. Something like this could work as well

Erod- Eichel- ? (praying for Svech or Z)
Smith- ROR- Reinhart
Bailey-Mittelstadt-Okposo
Wilson-Malone-Pominville

Fasching looks like a guy that won't make it, Botts did specifically mention Malone maybe O'Regan has a shot
Seems like Olofsson and Asplund are on the way I'm guessing they start the year in Rochester

Glad Sam is included in these scenarios.

He has my attention

We have 1 top 6 winger. This group needs a lot of work.

Seedy...watch him play. He was invisible for the first half of the season. Again, he is slow and rarely wins one on one battles. This is a contract year for him.

I thought we all really liked him 4 years ago.

4 years is a long time.

A clear captain will make him play like that every game or be a vote to be in the pressbox

Damn .. speaking the truth

Preach brother

This blues an avalanche game is insane

"Sabres center Ryan O'Reilly won 19 faceoffs in the game to break the all-time NHL record of 1,268 set by Carolina's Rod Brind'Amour in 2005-06. O'Reilly finished with 1,274."

2 pims on the year

60 points

3 consecutive 20-goal seasons.


But he's overpaid and we're gonna give Reinhart $5m a year

This is mighty impressive, I will say myself

There’s no chance Sam Reinhart gets within 2 mil of 7.5

I still think it’s a 1- year deal

- sbroads24

It is, you'd think an accidental high-stick or trip here or there would get you. Is it just because he knows what not to do and doesn't commit penalties? Or is he never really in the play enough to get caught up and trip a guy accidentally, or high-stick him?

I like him, but I think it's a legitimate question.

I think that's dangerous for the Sabres, but in the end whatever they do won't be the end of them unless it's a stupid 8 year deal.

A perfect deal for me would be 3 years $13M. Get him "cheap" for 3 years and then go from there. You might have to pay him big money then, but you also know(I hope to God) where you are by that point. And whether he deserves a raise or a banishment.

Always struck me as a general lack of aggression. Wish he played a little closer to that line at times and took a few more penalties.
