That Aud Smell Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Am I misremembering, or was Samson in front of the net playing a role in four of the five goals yesterday? Reinhart the D-Less quietly has the best net-front presence of any Sabre since __________. Play it as fill in the blank, or choose from the choices below: A. Dave Andreychuck B. Chris Gratton C. JP Dumont D. Thomas Vanek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I dunno. Vanek did some incredible things in front of the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickie Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I think A. And he's figuring it out at such a young age, I think he's going to score a lot of goals from his "office" in front of the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Aud Smell Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Hey - thanks for doing this. I was hoping that someone would see my inclusion of Chris Gratton and come up with some other random, facetious candidates. /Pages PA Also, I'm unsure whether I should ever trot out again my Reinhart the D-Less.

No, because it makes it seem like you don't think he's any good in his own end, rather than the spelling thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Also, I'm unsure whether I should ever trot out again my Reinhart the D-Less. I vote for retiring it -- primarily because I can't shake the association I have with the customized Bills jersey of a random meathead I saw at a game last year with the name "D. Gozinya." The jersey #, of course, was 69. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also wanna say that, when I searched for a random multiple choice candidate from the 1982 roster (I don't think I wound up using one), this is what Google returned to me as an initial results page: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Fun Reinhart fact: at more than $9 million less against the cap, Reinhart has more goals than and as many points as Jonathan Toews so far this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwksndmonster Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Vanek and Reinhart have very different styles in front of the net. Vanek planted himself and hung in there. His signature tip was usually between his own legs. Samson is more of a lurker, constantly swiveling around the goal and timing his screen with the shot. I remember most of Reinhart's tips being higher than Vanek's, with Sam bringing his stick down to make ridiculously exact slight contact.
