And many of the old-time Sabre greats would have been run out of town after two years in this day and age of social media.

I changed my mind again. I am all for getting Stamkos.

He is probably the second best goal scorer after OV.

Kane has Panarin setting him up. OV and Stamkos have nobody in the top 35 assist wise..

Would love to see him play wing with Reinhart.

ror-stamkos-reinhart
kane-eichel-2016 pick


I bet ror would move to the wing to ride shot gun with stamkos

I said many would agree I wasn't speaking for you I was actually giving you compliments to your old players and not being disrespectful but of course you don't understand that and you like to start fights

Had a chance to meet Sam in San Jose last week after the game. Signed my jersey and then unprovoked decided to stick around and chat me up for a few minutes. I could not be more impressed with the young man. He's the real deal.

Probably. He set 89 up for 76 goals.

That is why I would keep Reinhart as center and Stamkos on wing.

If we have Stamkos you know for a fact he's not going to play in the second line that's just my opinion of course and you can't put Ryan O'Reilly on the third line

O'Reilly can move to wing to keep him off the third line.

If you have two great top two lines, what does it matter which one is 1 and 2? Kind of like 2005.

I think Sam has a long, successful career here. Looking forward to seeing him with a couple years experience under his belt.

P.S. I'm not an old vet of the site but I am old

It really doesn't matter to me it's a good problem to have from Derek Roy days but the way Ryan O'Reilly plays center you can take him out of the center position .

martin was busted up when I was able to focus on the sabres and tv

the one thing the sabres teams had in the late 70's/early 80's was depth

all 6 d men could score

top 3 lines, everyone was capable of 20 goals

outstanding goalie tandem

bowman's ego got the best of that "team"
