All year long, Sabres fans and hockey fans alike have raved over the name Jack Eichel. They have praised him and all he will do for the Buffalo Sabres after he was drafted by them. But what many people seemed to have overlooked is the fact that Sam Reinhart was picked at the #2 slot in 2014.
Sam Reinhart is still a fantastic player regardless of the hype that surrounds Jack Eichel. He still possesses a unique set of skills that will have him thriving on the team this year. If the Blue vs Gold Scrimmage game wasn’t enough of a showing of how much Reinhart has come along in the past year, I don’t know what else is.
