Tkachuk this year 10/24/34 Reinhart this year 25/15/40 Tkachuk average per 82 25/39/64 Reinhart average per 82 24/30/54 Tkachuk has bonus points for being nasty. I wonder if Sam gets the centre bonus yet? Reinhart is an RFA this summer, but Tkachuk has a poison pill contract requiring a $9 million QO next summer. 1 Quote

IF we were to trade Samson (not convinced it's the right move) I wonder if you call hometown Vancouver and ask about a Samson for Horvat or Boeser swap. There were rumors one might be available last offseason. Quote

San Jose and Anaheim are teams that might be itchy as well. Quote

I've always had an affinity for Logan Couture purely because he's a Bills fan but he's probably aged out as a target now but Hertl and Meier could be of interest. 1 Quote

Hes just another loser like tom wilsion (Matthew Tkachuk is actually available, but the scribe believes that Calgary should be open to entertaining offers. He writes, “They should also be open to offers on Matthew Tkachuk, who has one season left at $7 mil before becoming a RFA.” Noting his production has dropped and his leadership skills brought into question, this might be the right time to make a move.) Sounds great to me ! We dont need this attitude here Quote

Johnny hockey would be interesting but everyone believes he signs with the flyers next year . Monahan is terrible his defense is Ristolainen bad we can do much better.

Sounds great to me ! We dont need this attitude here Tkachuk’s 77 points and 61 points would be Samson’s first and third most points in a season and he’s not that far off this season point production wise. He’s three years younger. If both were made available more teams would call with stronger offers to Calgary. Your verbiage makes it clear you’re letting a personal grudge impact your thoughts here. 1 Quote

Huckleberry Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 looking at his stats though, how can his agent not ask for 8 mill a year. Quote

triumph_communes Posted May 4, 2021 Report Posted May 4, 2021 Lest we forget Reinharts heroic end of season awakening he has done every freaking year of his career. Stats junkies won’t plot production vs games played year after year and see how he is invisible until any hope of playoffs is over and then he starts padding stats. There’s no doubt he has the talent. The gripe is that he chooses not to use it properly. At least he’s playing center now, but he’s still the guy not tying up a stick in front of the net as he doesn’t play physical at all, allowing critical goals when the other team is actually pushing hard.

You claimed it, you do the work to prove it. Go for it, breakdown Reinhart's production by week and plot it against when the Sabres were officially eliminated from the playoffs. This year you probably should exclude as he got a new coach and position right when his production increased which makes that a more plausible variable as opposed to "out of the playoffs". But for let's say the previous 4 years, what does it look like? Quote

This is entirely false. Look at the numbers. https://www.espn.com/nhl/player/gamelog/_/id/3114722/sam-reinhart The history of Reinhart haters moving the goalposts has become laughable. At least do what @PerreaultForever has done and say “I just don’t like him and I’m not going to change my mind” Its a lot better than making things up, or holding him to higher standards than 90 per cent of the league.

Last year points by month: 11, 9, 11, 11, 8 that’s remarkably consistent for one thing. For another, the last month of the season is his worst. Previous year: 6, 15, 17, 7, 12, 5. Pretty inconsistent, but, again garbage time was his worst month 2017-18 was the year he he kicked ass in the 2nd half after a horrible 1st half when some started calling him a bust, which may be the source of this myth. (4, 6, 1, 9, 13, 14). For the record, that whole season was garbage time. 2017 4, 8, 9, 9, 8, 8 - about as consistent as it gets. 2016 - 4, 5, 6, 5, 8, 12 - steady improvement as a rookie Edited May 4, 2021 by dudacek 2 Quote
