I'm going to preface this by saying I bid up to $1900 on a Reinhart jersey so......
The issue I have is MY eye test. Sam has not once in 3 seasons impressed me with an outstanding play. Not once. During our game with NJ, they have a 19 year old rookie named Blatt I think. Unheralded, and who knows what type of career he'll have but he impressed me more in that one game with a burst of speed, a flashy finish, hustle and battle for the puck then 23 has in 3 seasons.
Sure, corsi and stats have their important roles but after an over two season sample size, I'd figure once he'd go "wow'd" me.
That is very deflating to me.
