Could trading the first pillar to the Sabres' rebuild be the answer to what ails the team?
Sam Reinhart was the player I wanted Tim Murray to select in the 2014 NHL draft. I was well aware of the fact that Sam Bennett and Leon Draisaitl had higher ceilings, but it was Reinhart's high floor that sold me on him as a prospect. Murray's first pick of the rebuild was critical and I felt the ideal course of action was to take the safe bet in 2014 while banking on landing our superstar in the following year's draft.
