  1. In what world is Sam Reinhart mediocre at best? He’s one of the best RWs in the league and on the verge of being a 70 point player at 24 years old. RORs interview made complete sense at the time and still continues to make complete sense. He was our best player year in and year out when he was here and had nothing around him for help. Of course losing non-stop while you’re doing everything you can to prevent it is going to wear on a person. He was candid. Hundreds of thousands of hard workers throughout the globe feel this way about their job then move companies and poof everything is better. And St. Louis didn’t give O’Reilly the Conn Smythe, he earned it by being a fantastic player during a Stanley Cup run.
  2. Three or four years ago I understood where people were coming from when they didn’t like Sam Reinhart, but at this point I’m at a complete loss. It’s like some of you enjoy being bad and are looking to keep it that way. As someone alleged up-thread, players come to Buffalo and play worse than before and then leave and get better. What happens when the same happens with Sam? Oh wait, I know that answer: ”he won’t get better because he relies on Eichel and is complete trash.”
  3. I just found it hard to believe and thought maybe you lived in an area with an exceptionally stable power grid. You should free yourself for a day in the mountains or woods sometime, it’s quite liberating.
  4. But you’ve spent an entire day without electricity in some capacity right? That seems hard to believe you haven’t gone 24 hours without electricity as an adult.
  5. Do you really think Babs will coach again after the Marner incident because I don’t
  6. Uh...Kessel’s Penguins teams won two cups. That’s the best result you can have...twice!
  7. Absolutely on Skinner and thankfully there will likely be one with the new CBA
  8. Safe to say Jack is the curly haired princess from Brave (I think that’s the name)
  9. The way I see it is we have four top six players and two middle six players then a bunch of trash. There’s a lot of work that needs to be done to be competitive.
  10. Great fight from Tkachuk there. I thought all he did was turtle and take runs?
  11. After we re-sign Reinhart and Montour (ugh) we really don’t have the cap space that it’s made out we have. I’m glad to see Botts starting to catch flak for the Skinner deal, it’s funny how he says he won’t let the fans affect his decision making then he gives out that god awful contract because of a looming fan revolt. This is a bad team and is going to stay bad for a long time.
  12. It’s not. He’s worth $8m at most, but probably closer to 7.75m
  13. I can’t believe he’s only 24. Seems like he’s been around forever now.
  14. Is this serious or facetious? Because there’s only one top 6 player on that line...
  15. I would trade Montour for that in a heartbeat. I’m not convinced he’ll get a better contract than Risto not that he’s a better player than Risto. Probably would trade either though.
  16. Anyone who wants Sam below $8m should have been clamoring for an extension when the rest of us were. Anything less than 8x8 will be fortunate.
  17. I feel stupider for having read this thread
  18. Peak? PEAK?! Jack Eichel has not reached his peak. The whole WORLD will feel it when Jack Eichel peaks.
  19. They had three games in three days and wanted to use him for a spot start (sounds like he got two of them). Returning to CIN so he can get more consistent reps.
  20. What I find amusing is there’s plenty of posters who were fine with signing Skinner to a $9m but refuse to pay Sam more than $6m. Sam is by far the more complete player.
  21. There used to be a whole thread of boobs, so it’s definitely been done
  22. How can he be bad in front of the net while also being by far our best player at deflections and tip-ins?
