1st Round pick #2 Sam Reinhart

[nfreeman]

Moulson and Gionta are the perfect wingmen for him, pros who are skilled enough and good guys to show him the way.

Not sure if that is our first line - the Sabres look to be more a team with three second lines this year.

 

My expectation for Sam is to make the team and score 30 to 40 points.

If he's not able to play 14 minutes a game with some PP time, he should be sent down.

But I think there is room for him on this roster and he think he shows enough to make it happen.

 

I kinda like the idea of Foligno or Stewart on Reinhart's line to provide a bit of muscle.

[Hoss]

Stewart if either. Foligno still hasn't found himself or proven that he's actually a skilled player. Don't want him searching for himself on the same ice as Reinhart.

[Hoss]

His former (or potentially still current) GM from Kootenay said on WGR that he believes strongly that Reinhart will be in Buffalo full-time right away.

If my opinions on music older than me are invalid then I know about maybe 10 bands.

At least we've come to an understanding :P

Justin bieber fan ?

Nein. I was saying that almost all of the music I listen to is older than me. And if all that knowledge was invalid then I'd know (like really know, discography and such) around 10 bands.

I listened to some Mozart this morning. Complete hack. But what do I know, he was before my time.

Any red blooded male who was around when Carly Simon released "You're so Vain" thinks it is a great song!

I always thought Carly Simon was slightly creepy. Just as I blame Yoko for breaking up the Beatles. I blame her for James Taylor's work throughout the 80s.

I often wonder if the famous composers and authors from the past are truly the "best", or just the most famous. Is Shakespeare a 16th century Stephen King or, well, Shakespeare? Mozart might have been Britney Spears or The Beatles.

[Doohicksie]

The thing to remember when listening to classical music is that we only hear the best... maybe 5% or 1% of the music written, and by the best composers. So we never hear the Baroque Era version of something like "Seasons in the Sun" or "Come on Eileen". That drivel of that era has been lost to history, thank God.

....I love Mozart! He was Austrian, you know. But for this kind of work, I find him a little bit light. So I tend to go with the heavier guys. Check out Brahms, he's good too.

Did not see this posted anywhere, but it looks like what we all expected came true, he is wearing #23

I understand what you're saying there. Shakespeare is undoubtedly a literary genius, unquestionable. But there had to be tens of thousands of other authors from the same time period that were pretty damn good, but likely have been buried by the sands of time and the inability to mass produce books back then. 400 years from now, I don't think today's authors will have this problem.

 

Anyway, so Sam Reinhart...

I certainly hope the denizens of 2300 don't view Miley Cyrus the same way we view Bach (who was considered a "rock star" back then).

I watched the video of the first pitch. Buffalo's already in love with this guy. I hope he lives up to it. It seems he loves Buffalo already, too.

Haven't they learned anything from Tyler Myers? He's being paraded around like a recently proposed to fiancée parades around her soon-to-be husband.

For a revitalized downtown....kid took a 1 mile walk without being stopped.....

 

Please don't keep showing me clips. At least Pommers spent his first days here with Drury, Briere, McKee, Grier....and had the nads to call out Doug Weight. This kid is CRYING Pommers to me as his max.....

[dudacek]

And Lemieux could turn out to be a self-absorbed ass.

Growing up changes people. What you see now might not be what you see at 25.

Or they could be great ambassadors for Buffalo, the Sabres, and bring a Cup to the city. Geez, talk about jaded. :blink:
