deluca67 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 What i get from hearing him speak, and what probably has been a big part of him getting picked as well. He wants to be in buffalo, hell he even has been training with hodgson already. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! :doh: That being said i would send him back to Kootenay, let him fill out his body a bit more. I'll agree with this. This team is still a mess right now. No need to rush the kid. Quote
DR HOLLIDAY Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 I thought they retired 23 after Ville Leino died. LMAO I think this is a solid pick and I can't wait to start watching all the young Sabres play together and turn the page on the last couple of horrible years Quote
Rasmus_ Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/buffalo-sabres-fill-key-need-by-selecting-sam-reinhart-with-no-2-pick/article19384029/ His presser was refreshing. The maturity coming from the 18-almost 19 year old was impressive. The fluidity of his game is also impressive in every sense. Got the guy I wanted, after so much useless suspense. Tim Murray said it best "paraphrasing", there were so many rumors at the end of the day, you just do your homework and let it play out. Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 All I can think of is "Hart Foundation." You mean the one where a talented group of brothers following in their famous father's athletic footsteps, had someone plunge to their death in an arena in front of 18,000 people?? PASS!!! :) Quote
eball Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Pegula could be paying both very soon. El Pegual needs to have a 1/2 Sabres - 1/2 Bills tie made for him, so he'll never need to think about what he's wearing before press conferences. Quote
thewookie1 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 I'd do exactly what they did with Zadorov. Play him a few games and barring a spectacular performance send him back to Juniors with a bit of experience and a better understanding what skills he needs to improve. Quote
Eleven Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 I love this pick to the point where I have nothing to say other than "I love this pick." Quote
biodork Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Worth a watch. Got me even more excited. Random question: When did we introduce Risto/Zadorov last year to the Buffalo media? Was it within a few days of the draft? Nice. Excited to see what this kid can do in camp. Quote
Trettioåtta Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Hodgson and Reinhart could make a nice 1-2 tandem. I think they both have good hockey IQ and could make pretty nice passes to one another. If Foligno finally returned to playing the power/banger role to give these guys space/dig the puck out of the corner it would be a sweet line Quote
Huckleberry Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Foligno or Girgensons are there to protect Reinhart in the future. Quote

Hoss Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 This was put out this morning, but did anybody point out that Rip Simonick tweeted that Reinhart will be wearing 23? Pretty quick work there which is probably because they want to get one made for him when he comes to town. Quote

darksabre Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Uh... Yea? I can't believe I have to do this. Rip Simonick does not have a twitter account. Quote
WildCard Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 I think they'll give him the 9 game tryout and he'll impress people enough to let him stay aboard. Least I hope so. It'd be nice having at least something worth watching in the ice Quote
Trettioåtta Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 I'm actually really psyched we got Reinhart. Despite leaning towards Bennet all season. Reinhart seems happy to be a Sabre and is not flashy by the perfect guy who can carry this team. We needed a work horse and we got one. Girgensons can be our energy guy and Reinhart can be our backbone. Also takes fan pressure off Grigo, which I think will be good for his development. Does Reinhart make the Sabres this year? Quote
Hoss Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 I can't believe I have to do this. Rip Simonick does not have a twitter account. You can't believe that not everybody knows what you know? Holy ######, your life must be hard. I saw it RT'd on my feed right when I woke up. Didn't think to look because it would seem strange that somebody would have a fake Simonick account and tweet that out... Quote

Hoss Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Learn to Internet. Or you could, you know, learn to not be a dick. It was one mistake and suddenly I know nothing while you're the all-knowing internet king? I almost never make the mistake of believing these fake accounts. I believe it was freeman or webster posted a fake Bob tweet and it was nothing when they did it. Your pointless hatred for me is showing. Quote
