Maybe that's your opinion, but I thought he made some really nice plays. He was playing against Girgensons and Ristolainen most of the time. Two guys that have NHL experience,
- HonkFortheGoose

Not to mention, it was one frigging game, right?

Good God, the guy doesn't dominate in his first NHL scrimmage and all the experts on here think he's not ready.

Tyler Anus is an overpaid midget.

This is all speculation. He took 1 hit from Girgensons. I'd hardly say that's enough evidence to say he's not physically ready.

Ryan Nugent Hopkins played (and Produced) with an even smaller frame than Reinhart, as long as he can learn to properly absorb a hit he will be fine
- sbroads24

Agreed.

Look at Ennis. He is a pipsqeak. A buck sixty five, soaking wet. He's fine. Kane, same thing. Like you said, RNH. There are plenty of players like that. Reinhart's 185 lbs. It's not like he has the frame of a high school freshman.

People act like he's going to go out there and get killed. It's quite humorous.

It's all about having the vision and awareness to realize the hits coming. The NHL is faster, going back to juniors won't help that

It's going to have to be the ones that go in sync with his skating. I want it to match his heartbeat and brain activity.

So is reinhart an injury prone bust yet?

No?

I don't know. I give up.

No . He was granted exceptional status by the Buffalo media and fans , and was given the day off. Nothing more.

Agreed.

Let's just wait to see what Tim & Ted say . I think Nolan wanted Girgensons to lay the body on him Tuesday to see how durable he is. . As said many times if he is ready great . But don't keep him here to keep a fan base happy. He needs to earn his spot . Remember how screwed up it was when a player was just given a spot and did not earn it.

My money is he went out for some famous buffalo wings after the game and his stomach couldnt handle it.

That outstanding analysis from the land of bad contracts !

Looking at the Sabres site and whos in the system...

Roster:
7 C
4 LW
3 RW
5 D
3G

The rest in the system...

16 C
4 LW
3 RW
5 D
3 G

how many 20-goal seasons has he had?
- Michael Pachla

you gonna tell me their stat lines aren't virtually identical? Ennis a little smaller

Ennis is better, lets not kid ourselves.

He also will go to the corners and front of the net.

Wasn't a joke . Ennis is better.

- TheNugeIsHuge

I'm going to tell you that their stat lines aren't that similar, seeing as Ennis has done something twice in his five years of the NHL that Gagner has yet to do in his seven years... top the 20 goal mark.

Ennis is and always was better. He scored 20 goals playing with Steve Ott and Matt D'Agostini. I'd love to see his production if he got PP time with Hall and Ebs

With Ennis being younger and has flourished at the center position this past season . He will be sticking to it going forward. Last season with all the changes in mgnt and injuries he never had consistent line mates. This season with a more stable team and no drama going on . He could (should) be even better.

Let's just wait to see what Tim & Ted say . I think Nolan wanted Girgensons to lay the body on him Tuesday to see how durable he is. . As said many times if he is ready great . But don't keep him here to keep a fan base happy. He needs to earn his spot . Remember how screwed up it was when a player was just given a spot and did not earn it.
- Maximum Signal

Agreed on the fan base thing.

And I think TM & TN will make the right choice

Sabres should be interested in Andrei Loktionov

Ennis is 2 months younger than Gagner. His time in the NHL shouldn't have to do with anything.

Who cares? He's not a goal scorer. "Well Ennis hasn't cracked the 30 assists mark so...Gagner>"

Ennis has not had 3 #1 overall picks to play with either. Why in here talking about Gagner . Not your problem now.
