Not really he’s still soft and gets overpowered many times if he worked more in the summer then other things maybe his game would be complete by now

He at least has some man strength now and wins a ton of board battles whereas he used to get pushed aside very easily. I definitely agree he is far from perfect and needs to work on his consistency. I still think his biggest issue is his lack of quickness when time and space gets tight.
You must be watching a different guy then he definitely is easy to get off the puck
Sam didn’t have a good game. It happens.
In the laundry list of things to worry about conerning this team, Sam’s name doesn’t appear on my list.

When jacks not scoring people complain about him even when he is piling up assist
But when golden child Sam Stinks and gets outplayed the excuses happen and gets a pass
Why is that ? This dude would’ve been our so-called franchise center if we didn’t draft Jack

Outside of one person, Sam is often one of the most criticized players by posters, enough where said this one person is attacked on these boards for defending him. He gets anything but a pass.

Reinhart is deserving of criticism, and gets his share. I think he was especially poor today, but on average, he's done a lot more good than bad this season and is nearly a top-50 scorer in the NHL. He's not a franchise player, and that's unfortunate, but there's no value in being disappointed about that forever.
Going back to the beginning of the 2nd period in Tampa, we've scored one goal with a line other than Eichel's on the ice in the last 14 periods (plus about 8 OT minutes). And that was Thompson's 3rd period goal against the Lightning. A non-Eichel line hasn't scored a goal in four games.
So perhaps we should spend a little less time whining about one of the two forwards actually pulling their weight during this slump, and worry a bit more about the other three lines who aren't doing shit, or the coach whose strategy to get off this shnide is to continue banging his head against the wall by trying to win hockey games with one functioning line.

He does, though.
The pressbox rotation should be Sobotka and Thompson. Instead it's been Berglund, Rodrigues, and now Girgensons.

Getting spanked at home, while rested, by one of the worst teams in the league...Absolutely pathetic.
Should have expected a let down with extra rest after usually being surprised by the effort on little rest.
Sucks to take it on the chin like that in the third. Tied game with 20 min left,at home that needs to lead to points if you hope to be a playoff team.
All i have to say is that Tuesday needs to go exactly like the last Kings game went. Complete beatdown for 60 min.
Big week coming up. 2 very winable games at home followed by two big tests on the road.
A poor showing against the Kings, and Botts better get off his ass and get to work. (He should be doing so regardless at this point IMO.)

I just find it pretty meaningless to be the 14th person to say he did something bad/had a bad game. It gets a little redundant at some point.
So 71 and 37 sit which i strongly disagree especially 37 since he is part of our core over 17,10 and 29 who bring nothing to the table.if you want to argue that 10 should play because his line of 22 and 28 were effective fine except 28 didn't play i never heard of a reason .You are correct in putting reinhart on another line .I think Sheary and okposo see getting a free pass,neither has scored in awhile.Would love to see Nylander and oloffson to see if they can provide some offence they can't be any worse then the other 3 lines
Sam has created plenty of offense himself during this stretch, so your thinly veiled "Sam is living off Jack" post is nonsense.
Oh it wasn't thinly veiled. It wasn't veiled at all. Like I said I enjoy the 19 minutes per game 9 is on the ice because during that time they might actually score.

Stop accepting failure
Philadelphia sure can cycle in the offensive zone. Something I've seen Buffalo do like 3 times all season. Granted, it was against(not A-GAIN-st damn canuckleheads) our vaunted defense...
