It would be insanity to pay big money for Reinhart(who is a good player). If he were a tough guy and a disruptor and menace out there PLUS puts up his 50-60 points then yeah. Sabres are soft soft soft...and they will not be a dominant team until they get more tough 2 way players. They are not naturally tough.They can act like it for certain stretches...But as we are presently seeing..it never lasts. And how about a big name free agent? A winner with experience who may even be 'slightly' over the hill?? This team is not working on the right formula.And I think this new coach will be able to see that this group cant play intense hockey every game .We dont have the type of players who will do that. Peca,Luce,Ramsay..where are you??

not literally...just the playing style/. peca was a big man

according to people on here--many of them----this is a new league now with better players.one guy said that McDavid is better than Gretzky was. I nearly choked from laughter. If we want to play a skill/speed game we better have great skill on the team.We dont. Not in any quantity. Therefore----you are correct that we need to be very tough like Korab and Schoenfeld and peca...-And we have no one that tough.

Briere was the most talented of those 3 and magic in the playoffs.Peca was an enforcer type at a scrawny 180.Drury was solid and great in the playoffs. I would say that they are in the 20-35 range. a solid 2nd. i think lindy is still in shock from #1

naaah....bills were good in 98 and 99....so if u were 10 then you are only 30 now. now if you are talking 'great ' then you are at least 40. If you remember 64 and 65 then you are OLLLLDDDDD

the sabres in eternal rebuild...or is that the bills? like the twilight zone....

Looks like Elton laced them up for the Sabres

hehe...very true.

even dumber post...keep going gretzky is a much better hockey player.

i hope this isnt the time for the usual buffalo sports team collapse

No thats the Bills.....as usual

Turgeon was a great scorer...But was also one of those guys that floated around and didnt do much 2 way playing. I saw him play vs the sharks in the cow palace----looked like he was taking a skate in central park

Thorny---lets all hope you are just joking about McDavid vs gretzky. That is laughable

Gilbert coulda been.... Peca was one of the baddest/toughest 180 LB guys I have ever seen

Looking at this vid reminds me that there is no one in hockey right now who is anywhere close in talent to the 160 LB magician named Wayne Gretzky. All time maybe Lemieux,Orr.............pre concussion Crosby??...a more motivated perrault??

haha...altho i think its was bow bow bow

if this year's team is bad then it aint the coaching.

why dont they have a womans hockey hall of fame?? kind of unfair for the women overall.

we need craig ramsays on this team as well as mike pecas...and don luce and daniel briere and chris drury. none of them big guys but all TOUGH. ever since briere and drury debacle

right on

the sabres franchise needs to toughen up.

Good for ROR that he had a chance to play for a decent organization.

I agree with you re the coaching. But until proven otherwise that they are in fact the worst team in the nhl --proven by the last 2/3 of last season.

hard to believe the sabres are the worst team in the nhl.

yep true with the sexu unis/… But really only tennis is the moneymaker. the Olympics are a short run. And tennis isn't a team sport. So really all womens team sports are non money makers. Not saying its fair...but its reality.
