Thanks for sinking Sam's value Paul

Wow.  

My mind is blown.  

Paul Hamilton will have zero impact on Samson Reinhart’s trade value.

You don't think reporting like this forces teams to do more homework on the player?  

No. A reporter like Hamilton can count on one hand the number of sources around the league he actually has. The front office of teams around the league have phone numbers and emails of all the people a wannabe reporter would call sources saved to their phone/computer and can talk to them at the drop of a hat.

Paul doesn't care for the Sabres too much. He's certainly a lot saltier now then he was when he first started. Personally I don't like his reporting now.

....or anybody else for that matter

I might have believed you but after I saw Ullmark give Hamilton attitude for his leading and garbage questions, I realized nope it's the reporter not the player.

He probably feels underappreciated as he can't get a long term deal and or not looked as to be in Jack, ROR, Kane level of important guys. He showed me something this season by finally playing Center as felt he'd be an ideal 2C since we lost ROR.

That would also be horrible only thing good is Krebs

I must be crazy because I think that would be ok.  I doubt they will make a trade that good.

Yeah, Ullmark seems like pretty much the nicest guy ever.  It’s Hamilton.

Every time he asks a question it has three parts, and he tells you the answer he wants you to give.

It’s probably that Hamilton is awful and Reinhart isn’t the kind of guy who will just humor him over and over again.

Some people don’t suffer fools well.

I’d love to see more players call out the boneheads in the press. I dislike soft questioning but there has to be a happy balance without the guys like Pham pissing into the wind and pissing everyone off. He’s a troll.

It is this exactly, the leading questions. I noticed he would go on WGR during the day and spout some ridiculous narrative he thought up. Then after the game he would bend over backwards to try and lead the player to answer the question in a way that would prove his narrative correct. 9 times out of 10 the player would disagree and then Hamilton would go on WGR the next day and start slandering the player.  Just crazy stuff.

Seeing the responses here…. It’s a classic example of “is this anything negative about a player I don’t like? Then I’ll believe every syllable uttered” 

 

“If it’s at all positive or neutral, then I’m gonna be skeptical or flat out not believe any of it” 

 

Obvious is obvious …

It's almost like Reinhart doesn't like Hamilton 

He was clearly rude towards, and not interested in talking to, Hamilton.  I can’t say I blame him.

Those first rounder would be considered 2nd rounders

No.  They would be 1st rounders, although very likely to be late in the round.

Can’t be any later than 31 this draft!  😋

You know what's weird, I think the official pick would still be 32 even though you are right it would actually be 31st player.
