    Re: sabres prospect talk

    BUFFALO – These are the final weeks of top Sabres prospect Sam Reinhart’s spectacular junior career. As expected, the slick 19-year-old has dominated the Western Hockey League in his five months back with the Kootenay Ice, compiling 18 goals and 59 points in only 44 games. But hockey observers knew Reinhart, the No. 2 pick


    Nice article on Sam reinhart. Remember him? While everyone's out obsessing over mceichel, it's nice to recall the top prospect we have at the time.

      People forget that we have waiting in the wings and we'll probably add a Mc somebody soon, those player will make an immediate impact on the team.

          Come playoff time I think Sam will average 2PPG at least and dominate a bit more. I think this regular season was likely kinda boring for him

            it sounds like he put in the necessary work and got stronger, so hopefully, come next season, hes ready. he has the skill and intelligence. just needs to ripen a touch

              Well you have to play someone next year so he probably gets a shot at least.

                    Funny, talked with Harrington of the Buffalo News who covered the world juniors and he said that Compher was invisible. Good to see that hopefully he is growing.

                      he didnt impress during the WJC or the first half of michigans season. after the WJC, he came alive and really played well. michigan had a really solid team this year, but their scoring was down. as a result, his numbers took a hit. still, a good season.

                      sadly, michigan lost the big10 title game and just missed the tournament as a result. his season is over.

                          That's what I said. After he returned to Michigan however, he began to play extremely well. At one point he had 7 goals in 3 games I believe.

                            Sabres center Mikhail Grigorenko appreciates coach Ted Nolan’s honesty and tough love. The 20-year-old Russian sees it as a sign of support.


                            Glad to see he's responding well to Nolan criticism.

                              interesting theory being floated as to why point wise Sam Reinhart hasn't been as dominant as he should.. Since being back with Kootenay Sam has been doing a ton of weighlifting sessions way more than any of his teammates do and his heavy weightlifting workload has affected his performance a bit.. as come game time he isn't a "fresh" as he would be if he wasn't weightlifting a ton during the season.. Kootenays playoff season starts tonight perhaps the Sabres development coaches will now have Sam lay off the weights

                                honestly, hes probably bored. think about it. kid gets drafted, gets sent back. he doesnt want to be there. he gets up for the WJC, because its a huge stage, then back to the WHL. its obvious, with all the weightlifting sessions, hes taking his obligation to be a pro extremely seriously. so playing in the WHL is probably a huge let down for him. its not an attitude problem or anything. hes simply bored of it.

                                thats my take, anyways.
