Thread: Why not Sam
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Narwhal90</b></div><div>As I mentioned the deal only happens if Reinhart agrees to a long term deal prior to the trade.

We already know Reinhart is at least a 2nd line center. No guarantees with the 8th pick, or turcotte.</div></div>

You are preaching to the choir my friend... you are not going to find many posters on the site who will agree with you that Samson has REAL value. Samson would most certainly sign a long term deal with the Kings and almost any other club on the West Coast of USA &amp; Canada if the following are addressed:

1. He wants to be wanted by the team so term is critical to him.... he has never been made to feel as if he is important or matters to the development of the Sabres organization as it has been others who get the long term contract and the money;

2. The dollars have to be in a range that is acceptable for his talent. he has been grossly underpaid for his career and that is on the Sabres;

I for one would love for GM Adams to say hey Samson I will give you a 8 year deal for $9,000,000 a year once I move Capt. Jack. I think the Sabres chose the wrong player to make the face of their franchise.

Thanks for taking the time to post this trade for us to comment on. I appreciate the effort.

I do not think you need to add Tage Thompson in the deal. Tage flips this trade in the favor of CBus IMO.

The draft picks are a wash as you are swapping pick #25 of pick #33.

I for one am not a big Domi fan as his CAREER year is an outlier in IMO. I do not think he will ever sniff 28 goals 44 assists for 72 points. I think he is a 3rd line winger and agitator.

What is the value of a player that puts up the following numbers:

Year 1: 79 games 23 goals 19 assists 42 points

Year 2: 79 games 17 goals 30 assists 47 points

Year 3: 82 games 25 goals 25 assists 50 points

Year 4: 82 games 22 goals 43 assists 65 points

Year 5: 69 games 22 goals 28 assists 50 points

Year 6: 54 games 25 goals 15 assists 40 points

What value would a team acquiring this level of production and availability (this player very rarely misses a contest).

If GM Adams was to move Samson in this deal I think proper value would be:

Reinhart
