Reinhart’s view on being late: Stuff happens

‘As Sam Reinhart returned to the ice Thursday following a one-game benching, he clearly felt the punishment didn’t fit the crime.’

Sabres Notebook: Smith signs max deal; alumni auction

‘“It just kind of fits the person I am,” the Sabres’ newest forward said Thursday. “I grew up in Des Moines, Iowa, blue-collar city. I played in Lowell and played in Austin, Minn., all kind of blue-collar communities, and they all play blue-collar hockey.’

Sabres’ Sam Reinhart says misread text led to benching

‘Did Reinhart try to convince Bylsma and Murray to let him play? “A little bit,” he said. “I wanted to let them know (expletive) happens. Sorry to swear. I didn’t sleep in. … I misread a text.”’

Sabres newcomer C.J. Smith believes Buffalo ‘fits the person I am’

‘“There’s a … young core in here that’s going to grow this program,” Smith said.’

Sabres’ Reinhart benched for arriving late to team stretch

‘As it turns out, general manager Tim Murray and coach Dan Bylsma had changed the team’s disciplinary policy only a day earlier. Previously, players would miss a power play if they were late for a team meeting. The decision to have players miss an entire game was instituted because not all see regular time on the power-play unit.’

Sabres sign UMass-Lowell forward C.J. Smith to 2-year deal

‘Smith joined the Sabres for practice Thursday and could make his NHL debut Sunday when Buffalo hosts the New York Islanders.’

Sabres sign F Smith, assign D Austin to AHL

‘Smith, who recorded 56 goals and 69 assists in 120 career contests, was named to the Hockey East All-Rookie Team in 2014-15 and to the league’s All Tournament Teams in each of the last two seasons.’

Sabres’ Reinhart said he was late due to a mistake

‘“It’s a coach’s decision, it’s a management decision, from my aspect I would’ve rather battled with my teammates, I don’t think five minutes in the morning is going to influence my preparation for the game, but it was a team stretch and I should’ve been on time.” The situation is over and Reinhart is back on the right wing with Jack Eichel. He said he’s received plenty of support, “I know the 25 guys in here know I’ve been a team guy and I’m still going to be a team guy, so that’s the most important thing.”’

Sabres’ Smith has his first day in the NHL

‘Many teams were interested in the UMass-Lowell junior, but he had his reasons for picking the Sabres, “It kind of fits the person I am, I grew up in Des Moines, Iowa which is a blue collar city, played in Lowell and played in Austin, Minnesota. They’re all blue collar communities and they all play blue collar hockey and I think that’s what the Buffalo Sabres are about and I think I fit their identity.”’

Sabres’ Reinhart on benching: “it was a tough one to swallow”

‘”It’s the coaches decision and it’s a management decision,” Reinhart said Thursday morning. “From my perspective, I would’ve rather battled it out with my teammates. You know, I don’t think five minutes in the morning is going to influence my preparation for a game, but it was a team stretch, and I should’ve been on time.”‘
