French Collection Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 I find it hard to gauge Reinhart’s leadership with the Sabres but he has had that role before. Captain of the Kootenay Ice, Captain of Team Canada at the Hlinka U18. Captain of Team Canada at the IIHF U18 and Assistant Captain for Team Canada at the IIHF U20. I would like to see him extend with the Sabres and be a candidate for the C. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is believed he is well liked in the room and has gotten better every year. Also mentioned there is a big disconnect between how Sam is perceived by local media in interviews and how he truly is behind closed doors. Says Reinhart may see himself as part of the solution for Buffalo getting better. Go to WGR and at the 9:14 ish mark of howard and jeremy you can find the audio. Paul Hamilton dropped of a heart attack on the spot while listening to WGR during this interview.🤣 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly would like to see him extended and if Jack is traded, yes I think with an extension he should a candidate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way he was playing to finish the year he would be maybe a 21-50 kinda guy? But he is serviceable enough in that role to insulate Mitts and Dylan. (I also think if he Brendan Gallagher or Chris Kreider on his flank instead of Jeff Skinner and Nader Bjork he would have had more assists, but I know that's touchy subject 😜) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He, too, would have been playing wing on that Avs team that had 17 centers on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted May 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 I don't need Reinhart to be a top 20 center. I ideally need him as my #2 center with veteran presence who gets how to grind out a win but also drops 50-60pts a year. So he's just gotta be in that 21-30 range at center. He's never going to be a top 20 center, that's okay we will need him before the end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashsabre Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 What is a top 20 centre in people’s minds? Is it a guy who puts up 80 points? Tavares puts up points but I would much rather have Reinhart and everything he does, especially in a playoff series (cue Colts “Playoffs?” Video) The Drury comparison is pretty solid. Not a top offensive centre but a super important one for team success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he means John Tavares, not John Tavares. Why would you want a lacrosse player (all-time leading scorer or not) on your hockey team over Sam Reinhart? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that Drury was as good as his late game heroics had people believe. Many of which were the result of Lindy shortening the bench and putting him together with Briere. I still think Reinhart is Drury and would love to see what he could have done on that team. Edited May 14, 2021 by SwampD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerreaultForever Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 Well if he is a leader, it will likely be leading another team. Maybe we can trade them both (and throw in the tandem bike) to LA. https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/sabres-sam-reinhart-wants-to-play-canucks-west-coast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
