Rhinofan, Gordong, yourself. Reinhart is a good player, but there is a reason why he got a bridge deal and not a long-term deal like almost every other forward in that draft class. Yes, he was a second overall pick and that label will always be on him. If Murray showed the same patience Botts did we don't trade for ROR and Kane and we probably have one of Matthew Tkachuk, Pierre Luc Dubois, Patrick Laine, or maybe even Auston Matthews to show for it. All of those guys I'd take over Reinhart as well. Maybe my hate should go towards Murray's handle of the tank and not Reinhart but when we simply throw a season away we better end up with a darn Malkin, Barkov, Laine, Seguin or another Eichel. Reinhart is a good player but we might use our next 4 first rounders and get similar talented players without having to tank.

Ummmm.... not even freaking close... I HAVE NEVER SAID HE WAS ANYTHING EVEN CLOSE TO JACK....


but I don't hate the guy because he was drafted 2nd over all.... and have illusions he should be something he is not.

that's just not true

none of us think reinhart is on the same skill set as jack


this is why the hate continues, you guys have this false impression of what we think of reinhart


I mean a poster listed sam as a top 5 problem on this team right now




skunk is a really good complementary player, nothing more nothing less

we are better with him on the roster then off the roster

value contract, chemistry with jack and skinner

- homiedclown


I explained my reasoning for my hate in the second part of that post that you didn't quote in your response. At the end of the day he is a good player but isnt like the other guys I mentioned. Is it his fault ? No. But at the end of the day I wanted Reinhart to be the 2nd line C who also earned a 8 year 10M dollar deal. If he ended up as a winger I wanted Reinhart to be the Marner on our team. Good player, perhaps undeserving of the criticism, but I wish he was the guy that made Sheary and Okposo better then they are not the guy that played with Eichel and put's up the kind of numbers I wish he could put up on his own.

does it matter, impossible to have a hockey related conversation with you and your clan
- homiedclown

Nah, you just like to bait people into these convo's and then play victim. See 4 posts in on first page and then this convo now.

I'm all for civil hockey convo's, but when you bring up Armia and Myers in posts to slight me then pretend you get "attacked" about Reinhart I have 0 sympathy.

Either let it go and I will too, or we can go back to not responding to each others posts

Tampa did us a solid last night by coming back and beating Montreal in regulation. The Leafs did us no favours, however I enjoyed watching the Barzal show stick it down JT's throat.

you don't get it both ways though


you can't attack posters and expect them to stay quiet


I am all for letting it go, not sure others will


also if sam makes a few great plays, and he is one of our better players on this team (probably 3rd to 5th best), people are allowed to like him

we watched this team suck for so long, and now we are a fringe playoff team, and a few knuckle heads constantly bash a player that has 38 points, in 39 games


this place becomes anything but a place to relax for a few minutes during daily life

Right, and when I made a simple joke of "Sam to you as well" as a play on Sam/Same you got pissed and made a big deal out of it.

I'm letting it go.

not so sure sam could put up 60-65 points w/o jack...not on this team
- Michael Pachla


We are praising Sam for the same things that we hate on moulson and okposo for: only can produce with a talented center and can’t carry a line.

I have no problem with Sam and he and jack have a lot of chemistry and sams cap hit is great.

I just think that if Sam could produce on the second line as center then we have a much much more balanced team and I think this year we have talent to put on his wings.

I want to see a repeat of the reinhart 2c experiment with sheary and mitts on his wings.

You go:

Skinner eichel Thompson
Sheary/call up reinhart Mitts

Thompson learns how to play with some time in space while eichel and skinner draw most of the attention

Reinhart has some skill on his wings

Mitts gets a little bit more space and hopefully builds confidence

This team desperately needs Sam to produce away from Jack. Until he does, he's going to take heat. It has nothing to do with where he was drafted and everything to do with how he looks when he's expected to carry a line vs. being the #3 guy.
