Liked him a lot in his draft year
He’s looked good with CGY

Been playing RW, but played Center previously

- jdfitz77



His shooting percentage the last two seasons are really high, like well above his career average, can he keep that up? If he can I would be all for it, even if he goes back to his average, playing with Jack he puts up lots of points and has a good contract...

I like Reinhart, but contract with term sounds good to me

Top 6 FWD and a goalie being talked about coming from Calgary.
- Pegullaville


Where’s this coming from?

Do we even have Cap room for that?

Seems like that very same person also heard what you were hearing about previously to Hall.

He said there was a bigger deal being talked about with Calgary, and that Botts was targeting Monahan.

Here is the start of the twitter thread. Apparently the poster on Sabres space had the Botts firing the night before and also had us targeting Hall and Granlund in FA.

Make of that what you will.

Maybe celery in, celery out hockey trade. According to CapFriendly they could use a right D.

On a Cup contender,
he’s more of a 2nd line guy imo
Tough to play against at both ends
20goal scorer

He’d be a nice addition

I also like Sam though
Would be ideal to have both

I doubt CGY would wanna move him though

Yea I heard Monahan but the Sabres where the ones that called about him, I said they weren't done before the Hall deal, so maybe it's D man going now.

That sh!t is GROSS

If someone wants one,
I pour them with good liquor & charge $20

Don’t need idiots slamming a few & them throwing up all over the place
Keep that BS at the frat parties

I agree with this take.

You know what else is "gross"? IPAs and PBR, yet everyone wants to be "cool" so they order them.

People like what people like, don't be a d¡ckhead. It's pretty easy for most people.

Montour + Tage ?
- jdfitz77


I kind of like Tage at 1.4 for three years. I think Risto/Montour/Miller, Reinhart and Hutton for Lindholm, Rittich and a pick.

Hear me out. An upgrade at 1B, a competitive RW who is cost controlled for several years and a future. Should open up space for us for potentially another signing. HOWEVER, works only if they are willing to fill that almost 6M in cap they have left and they like Reinhart.

So what does arbitration hand Sam (if it goes that far)

Like flacco said, arbitration doesnt care about covid, or linemates, just #'s.

I think they agree to a 1 year 5.66 deal prior.
2 years at 5.85 each. 11. 7 million total.

1 year makes sense , because you can re-face this team again next off season. Basically punt eichels trade thoughts, hall, stahl, dahilns contract decision and Sam's deal.

*re-face - new faces if we suck again.

What do you think stripes, years ,$ arbitration?

- jdfitz77


Bill's need a dependable tight end. Catch it when it gets thrown to you. Knox isnt that guy right now.

I think they planned to use zack moss a bit as a pass catching rb , until the injury. Maybe 2 back sets?

A lot of people’s fault:

Roberts on first int

Allen on 2nd int when team was driving to get with one score

Defensive pass Russ and secondary. Run defense was very good for the most part

Dabol - didn’t like his play calling This game. Three 3 and outs in first half were identical run run pass calls

Vrabel is a fat dbag

I don’t want anything to do with riitich. Not sure how high cut is in Hanifan but it would make a lot of sense to trade for him as he’s a LHD.

Hanifan and Johnny hockey are two of eichels closest friends too.

Riitich hanifan Johnny for Hutton Miller Reinhardt. Money is close enough

99% of ppl in my experience are ordering
Long Islands & slamming them quickly to
try & get (frank)ed up

Those ppl are generally bumholes to deal with

I’ve explained all this before

Also... PBR & IPAs are delicious

I don't do that deal If I'm Calgary. Also, why would we? For another left winger? Trading our only legit and experienced RW.

If you could trade miller or montour to cgy for a pick or prospect you now free up one to trade for a goalie, hopefully keumper

The 1st INT was Roberts fault...
AND Allen’s fault (for throwing it behind him)
AND whoever put Roberts in the game

Allen was off tonight... VERY off
Take away the INTs (and resulting puts) & it’s a close game

I think he's intriguing if he takes off at only 1.4M. He hasn't shown anything yet, to be sure. I'd like to think there is potential there with another couple players on his line, growth, age etc.
