If Peca didn't have that nasty holdout to go finish his career here he'd easily be my top guy. Yet looking back Mike Foligno was a favorite of mine during my childhood but ultimately the one guy I always respected before he became a Sabre and after he left was Chris Drury.
It's fear if a team does it opens up the can of worms that another team will do it to them. I agree it should be done more as to me draft picks, especially in the NHL, are over valued.
He did well under Krueger in Edmonton. I thought be a small chance he landed here. If we did land him it definitely help but it better not for the sake of losing Reinhart.
For balanced scoring I prefer him on the 2nd line. Now if we do sign Taffoli than I move Sam up and Skinner down. As think Jack and Olafsson stay on top line and the other winger depends on the rest of the team.
Reinhart's in the discussion of third or fourth best player on the team as long as he makes no more than $7.5 million a season I say you keep him. The kid had plenty of hockey in front of him at 24 and while he'll never be a full time top line guy he's a good second line guy that can also be part of the top PP. He's a healthy Tim Connolly.
