OK.  If you have a point to make, then make it already.

 

In particular, if you have a cogent argument supporting the proposition that lack of speed isn't a handicap for forwards in 3-on-3, or that Reino in fact is as fast as the other forwards that play in OT for the Sabres -- let's hear it.  But enough zero-value-added snark, please.

 

 

All I can say is to really watch him next game. He's not Larkin fast, but the kid can skate. The plays you mentioned, I know for a fact one of them happened at the end of a very long shift for him, and I think Karlsson chased him down in the other one. 

 

If you can, see him live. It hit me like a sack of bricks when I saw him live. 

 

Ya, I get where you are coming from nfreeman, but I agree with WildCard here. I understand the method you are using to come to you conclusions, I just think we are quantifying Reino's speed differently. I see a guy who is every bit as fast as ROR, and you see him as slower. Kinda hard to reach common ground then without someone changing their opinion on his speed.

 

We'll have to try and watch for it a little closer!

I think that Reinhart is faster than O'Reilly, and is such a smart player it's only a matter of time before he figures out 3 on 3.  It might help if he got a single shift of 3 on 3 before this game, but Dan gonna Bylsma.
