The best part about Reinhart getting this center time is that we never have to say "what if" with him again. Either he takes it and runs with it, or he shows that it's not his spot, and we no longer have to argue about it and what we have in him. 

 

Now go make us all proud, Samson.

What if he was given decent wingers

Indeed.  IMHO Reino won't have gotten a fair shot at C if he doesn't get anyone better than a washed-up Pouliot or a never-got-there Bailey (although it's far from clear that those are fair descriptions of those 2 guys).

Power play work:

 

PP1: 15 90 21 23 55

 

PP2: 9 26 29 82 47

 

 

So

 

Eichel - RoR - Okposo - Reinhart - Ristolainen

 

and

 

Kane - Moulson - Pomminstein- Balloon - Bogosian 

 

 

Hahaha just found the easter egg on this board. Well played, SDS :lol:

So, Housley is smart enough to leave the NHL's best PP unit together. Good on him.

 

If Nylander does get a shot whe healthy, I'd expect him to take Pominville's 1/2 wall spot & Pominville to take either Beaulieu's (my best guess) or Bogosian's spot.

 

Moulson had best produce on that 2nd unit or he'll be in the pressbox before you can say 'Bylsma overthought stuff.'

Sabres’ lines:

Kane-Eichel-Pominville

Girgensons-ROR-Okposo

Pouliot-Reinhart-Bailey

Moulson-Larsson-Baptiste

Deslauriers-Josefson-Griffith

 

Sabres’ defense:

Scandella-Ristolainen

Beaulieu-Bogosian

Antipin-Fedun

Gorges-Tennyson

Falk-Goloubef

 

EROD watching with a cast on his right wrist, and Nylander is watching as well

Fedun over Falk??? 

Indeed.  IMHO Reino won't have gotten a fair shot at C if he doesn't get anyone better than a washed-up Pouliot or a never-got-there Bailey (although it's far from clear that those are fair descriptions of those 2 guys).

Perhaps its worth a try and they all click together. Bailey needs time with a good player and Pouliot has done something before. They won't be facing top defense so maybe this works

In the AHL, year before

 

42-26-68 in 74 GP 20 years old

 

23-13-46 in 53 GP 21 years old

In fairness, Vanek was playing w/ (& against) young NHLers during the lockout.

 

Bailey was playing w/ post-Sabres tank Amerks against AHLers.

 

Can't totally discount the effects of those around a player. W/ that said, yep, no friggin' way Bailey comes close to Vanek production. :lol:

Taylor Fedun just left Sabres’ practice. Jake McCabe is already out with injury.

The Sabres are an NHL team that consistently suffers from a lot of injuries. This cannot be used as an excuse, as it must be accounted for in advance, as sure as the sun will come up tomorrow.

I like the lines I think, aside from Moulson being in the starting lineup seemingly. Just, no. He ruins the visual, seeing him there with Larsson and Baptiste. Not to mention ruining the line itself.
