Where are you getting the spear sh*t from? That was a figuative example from TM. Please don't dictate to me what grit is because I'm kicking your ass with rationale as to why the Sabres should draft someone with more of the total package.

What is this package? Hitting more and taking bad penalties?

In your dreams. Like It has been said Bennett's temper can get the best of him and he can take stupid penalties . I am sorry you are in love with Bennett . All the folks that rank Reinhart better and say there is a drop off after the top two in the draft are wrong and you are right.

Or I'd take it with a grain of salt like I always do.


Unless there's a name attached, it has a greater chance at being made up.

No everything has to be true on the internet . It is a law , isn't it ?

Where are all these people with who state this big drop off? I tell you the p ussying of America is showing its face in these discussions. The Sabres have been one big wimpy team for what, since the last Nolan coaching relm? I can't believe an agressive sport like hockey and people are saying with a lisp: No we can't draft him he's a meanie.

Current NHL executive and scouts and going to remain nameless. I'm sure if he drooled over Reinhart nameless be damned, that would be good stuff.

Mr Nameless . Yes who is the GM of again? Oh yea his fantasy team . Please use credible sources. Who we all can verify . Everyone here has given you them . . Going to ask you again . How many games of Bennett and Reinhart's did you attend to determine their grit factor? As you seem to know more than all the accredited sources.

You do know that scouts on TSN, ESPN and Sportsnet who give their opnions of players in this draft and any others draft are going to be anonymous, correct? You know that, don't you?

No we all think we should draft Reinhart for his hockey smarts . We can get meanies later in the draft . High Hockey IQ's are gone by then. Please show us where Reinhart was called a wimp . The WHL is a lot tougher than the OHL according to most. I value toughness as much as the next guy . But I also value smarts. That is why I choose Reinhart . No one in here has slagged Bennett. They just like the package they see in Reinhart.

You do know that Bennett was voted 3rd smartest forward in the OHL at age 17? Not too shabby. You seem to be downplaying that for whatever reason.

I guess all the scouts who do show who they are are full of poop then .It is a mass conspiracy against Bennett . I get it now ! The few scouts I know I have not asked about their franchises draft boards . The only one that will count to us is the Sabres draft board anyways.

And you seem to want to ignore that a majority of scouts who will list their identity say Reinhart has the highest Hockey IQ in the draft . Not third in his league. Why is that ?

So it could be said depending who the other two were (my guess is one is McDavid) that Bennett might have the 3rd or 4th highest in this draft?

That's not enough for me though and not enough for CSS either which ranked Reinhart #4 annd Bennett #1. Matt Freaken Ellis is smart too but he's not #2 worthy.

And ISS has it Reinhart 1 and Bennett 4th.

Man get over it . The majority of draft boards have Reinhart rated higher . But you won't acknowledge that . You just choose to dwell on this Bennett fascination and everyone else has no idea what they are talking about . Like I said I will take the superior hockey IQ this time . This Grit factor you are dwelling on is not enough for me .
Interesting sportsnet article on Bennett being ranked #1

Matt Ellis has a high hockey IQ , sees the ice better than other players? Never heard that before.

Is the speed enough? How about the shot? The first step? The competitiveness? I have no more facscination with Bennett than most of you have with Reinhart so get over it back at ya! The prominent board has Bennett #1 and the Kris Baker boards have Reinhart #1. It will be a fun Friday night.

We are talking about a lot more than the Chris Baker board . But don't let facts get in the way here.

The only board that matters is Friday night's

Bennett was relatively unknown for half this season. Everybody was focused on reinhart. Teams knew when he was on the ice at all times. Still scored just as much as Bennett and if I am not mistaken he took his team farther along in the playoffs with a pretty good showing.
