dudacek Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) I’d be surprised if Sam misses any time. It’s probably from the cheap shot he took (what the hell was he doing in the dirty areas anyway?) after scoring comes on the heels of another that made him miss a shift a few games ago. They kept him out of practice to rest and heal, but he’ll play. Dude never misses. He’s one tough *****.

He has been a consistently good bottom 6 forward. He was off from action for 10 months, then suffered an injury that kept him out for another 3 weeks. It might take a guy a few games to get back to full speed. And I didn’t even think he looked particularly bad last night. U said it all right there. He hasn't been in action for close to a year. He has had his moments in this league and on this team but the league has passed him by. It's a young, fast guys league now. They have the energy, they have the drive. He can still win puck battles and snipe a goal or two but he has to get to those areas first. So far, he hasn't been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s how it works. @Taro T help! 3 hours ago, GASabresIUFAN said: He gets the full $6 mill salary. We just get a cap credit of 1.1 mill. Yeah, I'd be ok with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I’m very interested to see how Hall and Cozens look together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we should give it a few more games. The alternative is paying him $6M with a cap hit of $4.9M to not be on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's missed a TOTAL of 6 games in his entire 5 year career, all of which were in his first two seasons (and I don't even know if he missed due to injury... that would require some digging). In the last 3 seasons he hasn't missed a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly don’t question his toughness or ability. Paul on the other hand had demeaned Sam on every occasion possible.
