Mark Scheifele had 49 points in the NHL when he was 22 years old

Sam Reinhart got 50 points

The Sabres don't have the luxury of having it's highest paid forward at $6.125 million like Winnipeg does either.

Now now....we can't use stats unless they tend to show the Sabres (or certain players) are bad.

Stick to the script.

I think you're setting your sights a tad high. Sam tops out on a really good year at 65 imo

he played on the worst team in the NHL, got 37 points in his last 37 games


playing on the team that scored the fewest goals in the NHL with a rookie coach at the age of 22



we have no clue what his ceiling is


if you base his ceiling on a season where he started out as the 3rd line center with clank light and ahl career hopeful as his wingers, and expected 80 points from him, way off base


but a kid that put up 37 points in 37 games once he got comfortable with a new coaches system, his potential is based more on his heart, and the heart of his line mates and situation the coach puts him in.

they also don't have the luxury to move a 22 year old who tied for the team lead in goals with 25

That’s basically 60 points

how many points does reinhart get next season if he is playing on a line with eichel and kessel?

- homiedclown

It's not about luxury. It's about necessity. This team needs speed desperately.

One of O'Reilly or Reinhart need to be moved.

a 22 year old that found his game halfway through the season with a new coach

or a 7.5 mil player that doesn't have the heart to go all in


I will take the kid 100 times out of 100 if I had to chose to keep 1 of them

Losing your love for the game at certain points, does NOT necessarily mean u “quit” or don’t give 100%
Just means u aren’t enthusiastic about it

U can hate your job situation & still give it your all when you’re on the clock

60. A monkey on skates probably gets 50.

you don't think reinhart had issues when he was the third line center with 2 players that shouldn't have been on this team?


he responded with 37 points in the last 37 games

I’ve always been a “Sam defender”
But idk that he takes the leap to be a ppg guy

Do u think he will?

- homiedclown

Much better.

Against teams' backup goaltenders....when it no longer mattered.

pouliot

I think he hit a few goal posts in october

if you put him with jack and kessel


all 3 are ppg players this fall


if you put him with e-rod and wilson, he is a 30 point player

I want Sam to succeed...but if Sam is puttin up a ppg....would Eichel be putting up McAutoHartJesus numbers?

And that's the problem. If that happens, he can't move the needle. You shouldn't pay him like he can.

Like O’Reilly?
I thought he was a “quitter” though?

got 3 goals vs this preds team with rinne in the net

I am just responding to a post that reinhart will never get more than 65 points in a season

I never brought up money

Nashville's entire offense is PK Subban.

Why do you pull you Vezina lock is beyond me.

They already lost this game.

To keep him, money is going to be part of the conversation. He's a RFA.
