Buffalo Sabres’ fans received a dose of positive news on Sunday when the team announced the re-signing of Sam Reinhart.
The Buffalo Sabres didn’t re-sign 24-year old RW Sam Reinhart to a long-term deal, but his one-year deal for $5.2 million is making fans extremely excited on social media.
The one-year deal solidifies Reinhart as a restricted free agent after this season, giving us time to see if he can take that next step in his career — and see whether signing him long-term is in the cards or not.
