nfreeman Posted April 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Well, Reino didn't seem any happier IMHO last night, even with a hattie and leading the team to a win over the Bruins -- and if he was interviewed after the game, they didn't show it on the MSG post-game show and it's not on the Sabres' website. Again -- my point here is not that his demeanor is bad for the team -- it's that I'm concerned that he's counting the days until he gets TF off this team.

A fist pump, an acknowledgement of the guys, and back to business. Again, not dismissing your overarching point - I’ve thought he is gone since he signed his one-year deal - but I see no evidence that it’s affected his game, or his on-ice behaviour.

Radar Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Could care less about the demeanor. Care a lot about performance. Actually I don't care much about athletes other than performance. L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre fan Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 I recall Sam being pretty cool even back when he was winning the championship with Team Canada. Guess that is why he made a captain...doesn't get too high or low. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi2000 Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 Reinhart was great today, he was engaged, winning pucks, winning faceoffs, back checking, seemed like he actually gave a damn.... might be the best game I've ever seen him play. That said, why does he only play like this once every dozen games or so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabrielor Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 I'm ready to do a 7-8 year Reinhart deal, if he'll take it. Sam's a core piece, and the answer to the 2C question at last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up. (89% on faceoffs last night) That’s why I don’t take those posters seriously. At all. On some subjects they might be knowledgeable. But on others especially pertaining to Reinhart, it’s pure ignorance mixed with site allowed trolling/flaming. It’s a shame some still engage with them on that subject matter. Reinhart lives rent free in some heads 😂 I don’t find it to be a regrettable act, if the Sabres sign him for 6 - 7 years at 6.5 - 7.00 per. Like The Skinner signing was/is regrettable. And some like to think Eichel is the best passer on the team… granted it’s close… But I think Reinhart is the better passer. In fact I don’t think it’s wrong to say he’s the best passer on the Sabres right now. Followed very closely by Eichel, then Dahlin. All three excel at seeing the Ice very well and puck placement on sticks. Edited April 26, 2021 by Zamboni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(89% on faceoffs last night) That's pretty good. I bet it really helped the team win the game. I would expect Reinhart to get slowly better at faceoffs as he is forced to re-learn how to take them. 41 minutes ago, Zamboni said: That’s why I don’t take those posters seriously. At all.

To suggest that those you disagree with are ignorant or are trolls/flamers (?) is wrong. Criticism of Reinhart is not so objectively heinous. Folks aren't saying Hasek sucked.
