Sabres' Reinhart still looking for a new deal
'In the final 44 games of last season, Reinhart was back around the net doing what he does best. He was making smart little plays using great vision. That had all gone away for a long period of time. He had become a turnover machine, which isn’t his game. When he’s playing well, he might be Buffalo’s smartest player.

Another move to like by the Sabres
'Downside would be that he’s probably about to get paid by the Sabres and that will likely be hefty. Think in the $7 million a year range.
