Don't speak for me, speak for yourself. Besides not getting space, he's not tough on the puck, the player, not high energy. There are more flaws to his game than just being unspectacular. Hall is going to make Reinhart Mr more Insignificant on this team. No longer top line player, no longer starting OT, we'll see if he is 1st line PP., fewer minutes. But this is all good because the team will be upgraded, hopefully in these areas if that happens so better for the team. Who cares about the decrease Sam will take, it's all about the team.

I'm not a Sam lover I'm a Sabres fan. And if you think VO is a good 5v5 player, I can't tell you what you're watching. What I saw from him was an elite shot from the right wall on the PP. Other then that, he was getting outscored by 3rd liners 5v5, and was a defensive liability. Could he correct it? Sure. But sorry to tell you this, even with Hall, Sam is still our second best winger today.

Olofsson got better 5v5 as the year went along
He was a rookie ffs

WTF? No, I am just bringing up the fact that so many thought the Sam and Skinner show would be good enough and that mua, me, said it was nowhere near good enough. Now, I know you do not enjoy that you look like a fool but sticking up for Sam like your red-headed stepchild now, all of you, is going to allow me to do this again in the future when he is dealt or falls flat on his face when they cut the cord from Jack. We have seen what blind loyalty brings and it isn't pretty.

“Good enough” for what exactly?

if the sabres were to move reinhart, it's next offseason

assuming jack jr is ready
tage is a second line winger by then
cozens and casey look to be in a position to be difference makers


and they lock hall up for the left wing slot to get with skinner

I respect the hell out of what jumbo joe did but his play dropped off last season and will probably drop more the following season

Agreed, but it still wasn’t good. And he’s worse then Reinhart at 5v5. Which is my point

I agree Boss, that is their vision...hardworking guys who buy in, are professionals of the highest level, who want to be here.
Big, big steps forward!
I can't complain about that at all.
The financial for a couple I do have issues with...just hope it doesn't get in the way of being able to add that one last piece to get them over the top into the playoffs

- IonSabres



👍

Take a look at the Lightning

High end talent

Middle good draft pick/ defensive players

1 year guys/ trade deadline vets / cup chasers


Hope we get there soon.
