Just checked on the game. Looks like Malone and Ogelvie (PP) with the goals. Johansson in goal.

Maybe Eichel will beat McDavid in fastest skater. Eichel looks more powerful this year. Blows by other skaters in games.

Hahaha okay dude, but you are so far off that you honestly justify how I feel about boomers. Selfish wieners who ruined the country, never want to help their fellow man, think millennials had the same oppprtunity as you. You are srill living in 1982, worshipping the beaurocracy.

I make enough money by myself to be considered lower middle class, I have seen other places that aren't America and I can tell you with absolute certainty that this country was never great and it will never be until the boomers finally die.

Just go deny a minority their food stamps or something and stop making assinine assumptions about people you know nothing about, yet resent because of their individuality and common sense that dictates logic and compassion when talking aboit sociopolitical topics.

Go plow the cubicle field you sterile mule.

ROFL so wrong in so many ways. This country was never great. I know, defeating the NAZIs and then making the Moon Shot were the work of losers. Inventing the internet and providing enough food to feed the planet absolutely sucks. Running the capitalist economy that has brought the world Apple, Microsoft, Tesla, Google, and Amazon is so F-ing terrible.

IQ of 45, or is that being too kind to you?

McDavid skates like a turtle on ice. Only 27 mph no big deal.


That's equal to the fastest man on foot Usain Bolt.

VO definitely would have had a shot if he hadn't gotten hurt.

I was saying to someone earlier, Nico Hischier in the all star game reminds me of Okposo representing the sabres in '16-'17 because they felt bad for us

Those teams need their token guys too. A lot of those spots are figuring out a puzzle, more than picking the best players.

Ullmark would have been an option as well. I think it would have been Dahlin.

Regardless of the narrative around him being a 2nd overall bust, Reinhart is currently the 2nd best player on the team. He would have gotten the spot, followed by VO 3rd and Dahlin 4th

Cozens, 4 points tonight.

Have discussions started with 23 on an extension? How big do you think? (@sabresbills18)

I told you we’d get to Reinhart later. I don’t believe discussions have begun yet on a new deal. That’ll probably start in the summer. My feeling is Reinhart will cost the Sabres between $6.8 to $7.25 million in annual average value (cap hit). He’s an arbitration-eligible restricted free agent on pace for close to 70 points, which would be a career-high again. Like him or not, that is the going rate for a player that produces at his level. I’ve always looked at the William Nylander deal ($6.97 million cap hit) with the Toronto Maple Leafs as the ballpark for Reinhart and his agency.

Some people have discussed the idea of using Reinhart as a trade chip and I’m not there at all. The Sabres need more impact forwards not less. Trading Reinhart in a package for another forward seems counter-productive. I’m also not saying he’s untouchable, but for me, it would have to be a really sweet deal to move him off the roster. I feel like he provides more than what is measured in terms of production that the Sabres can’t afford to part with right now.

I’d be in favor of moving him onto another line to give him a chance to drive his own line as the general manager has previously alluded to. I think it would help spread out the scoring and they can explore this when they get healthy at forward. If the Sabres don’t take him off Eichel’s like that isn’t a deal-breaker for me. A lot of good players play with other good players. Top lines all over the league consist of more than one good player on that line. It’s not a knock against him. Eichel and Reinhart do things in their game to benefit each other.
