actually, all the crap and suffering we have seen the last 10 years



watching eichel, reinhart, dahlin, risto, skinner and casey turn this team around this season will be all the joy I need


reinhart is a very good player and as this team gets better, so will his stats


he does a lot of little things that go unnoticed on the ice

in years of pathetic results, IMO the kids were the least of the problems and I saw more then enough in the last half of the season to have 60 plus points as a realistic floor if reinhart is in the right spot on the lineup


this pp will get better

this team scoring will get better


and quick

Good post

Heard on Nightcap Jeremy White tweeted his “Sabres source” said Sabres want 4.5 for Sam and Sam wants 5.75. I didn’t hear what either side was asking for term
- Hatboro_Swords

seems pretty easy to get it done


unless darcy and peca replace botts and reinhart

for this??


I for one am glad the dolphins were dumb enough to get him out of our division

Really? I can't believe no one posted:

Good post
- Boss34

I think we will be really good

and with our lack of rw depths now (big difference fro 2 months ago) reinhart is pretty safe to be on this team next year and many years to come IMO

Also, Samsonite has more goals and comparable points as MacKinnon or Scheifele had on their rookie deals? Impressive.

nah, I brought that up many times in the past

duchene got 59 points this year, 6 mil
eberle 59 points, 6 mil
jvr had 54 points same for evander and gallagher
Ryan Johansen is really good IMO on a good team 54 points, 8 mil
Paul Stastny 54 points, over 6 mil


all guys almost everyone wanted on this team in the last 18 months

the great Matthew Tkachuk couldn't get 50 points last season, and the flames top 9 was much better then ours
- homiedclown

I would say you have 3 centers on that list, 1 30+ goal scorer in JVR, and Eberle was paid too soon by Edmonton - I believe he's still on that contract.

Reinhart is not a center, nor a 30+ goal scorer (yet), and I don't want to pay him too soon

If he takes the step they did, I’ll be impressed and shocked

and those are old deals for the most part

stuff has gone up 20% since then

A GM who bases his evaluation of a player based only on the games he’s seen himself is in the wrong job.
- Der Kaiser

You're an executive:



You watch an employee of another firm and form an opinion

Then you hire that guy.

One year passes and you review his production over the past year under your watch. Talk to your management team.

Could be 2 different opinions.

Could be the same as your 1st impression

Well thought out.

Let me guess: he scores goals and points

He was the #1 forward chosen in 2014. 50 point season 4 years later

Yay

Not punching someone and not throwing bone rattling checks does not equate to soft.

Soft is a guy who blocks a shot and misses 5 shifts. Reinhart gets slashed and crosschecked from here to oblivion every night and has missed 6 games in 3 years.

If he takes the step they did, I’ll be impressed and shocked
- sbroads24

Scheifele was one that shocked me at the time.

Decent second line numbers and then bam 6 mil per



the kid elevated his game and is the real deal and the jets now have a bargain contract

and those are old deals for the most part

stuff has gone up 20% since then

I still think you're muddying the waters a little bit including centers in an analysis.

I like Reinhart, but he has a lot to prove before he cashes in big time imho

Unless it’s you, someone tweeted the station or something and using your material as their own. There is a plagiarizer amongst us. Little Finger will need to take the stand.

I cant wait until the season starts.

I like how relevant the Sabres have been this off season

Lottery
Combine in buffalo
Draft
Prospects camp
Ror trade
July 1st fa hutton
Skinner

I set them up

Although, to be fair, Iverson was one of the great shooters of all time, the Browns could use all the practice they can get.

it's a whole different contract era then it was 5 years ago


stuff goes up, big time


water can be as muddy as you want it, he was a top 20 scorer last half of the season

I'd rather have reinhart on jack's wing with skinner then pommer, okposo or any of the run of the mill prospects

Olofsson is the one prospect I would like to see with Jack but he plays LW so that will not happen with the addition of Skinner, at least not for the first 2/3s of the season

wasn't me, I actually had to work this evening



plus I refuse to interact with wgr and I do not do twitter

- Hatboro_Swords

Would 3er trade sam for either of those guys?

Impressive though

Scheifele led my " eich snipes" fantasy team to the championship

Although, to be fair, Iverson was one of the great shooters of all time, the Browns could use all the practice they can get.

I thought it was a well times speech


opposite from the vibes I heard from him in miami


dolphins could use that fire in their lock room, so could we
