Whichever team Reinhart is traded to will be signing him shortly after the trade to a long term deal, so the Sabres will get more than what you said above.

That said, with the demand there is, they're not trading Reinhart to Seattle for something involving protection relief.

Correct, not when a 2nd and Miller will do

Sam reinhart is not a "pro's pro" . 😀😀😀

He had a good season, has a bad attitude and contract situation.

He gone

And for not the 2OA

His Coaches disagree, but haters going to hate.

With the above laid out, who are you tapping as coach?

A) The beard.
B) The meatball
C) The bbq.

D) The assistant (Carolina, Islanders, i forget where the other guy is from)

E) unnamed someone.

* caveat, the bod ends up in Carolina or Seattle… I don’t see him leaving for buffalo, especially with skinner as the veteran leader…

Been on the Granato train for awhile and am not changing my tune now.
The Beard as an Associate Coach would be cool ,apparently he has stated he's open to it.

Really, I've watched him take shifts off, live in person.

I've watched him lose for 7 years.

What happened to the extra ror practices.

Never hear of his work out ethics or training, just the opposite.

He does show up for work everyday. That's important

Eichel and others have talked about it often, but please continue to reveal your nonsensical opinion.

an untenable situation, imo, as a novice head coach will be to looking over his shoulder at and associate who has his eyes fixated on a head coaching position

Don't many assistants have their eyes on the head coach position? I doubt many of them are looking to be assistant coaches for life.

If he's traded, everyone should get ready to be disappointed at the return. I'm going with a 3rd round pick for Risto right about now - and I'd take that.

Sam, oloffson, and Risto to LA for Turcotte and #8. They get two forwards they want, a D they need and are ready to roll now without gutting their system.

We get two young pieces to start a re tool

Just checking if you have adjusted your thinking. If we are going down this path. I’m with you on the meatball and the beard (if the beard can coach the pp, I don’t know his specialty)…

My main reason, I liked watching meatball hockey and the kids looked better with him, even with a 4th. 5th. And 6th tendy…

That's a lot to give up for that return, no?

Why not also take cap back to up the return?

If they don't hire Granato I'm going to be sad.

A center compared to Cozens and the #8 (potentially Guenther) is more than fair IMO
