To BUFFALO:
Sam Reinhart Pekka Rinne
To CALGARY:
Jake DeBrusk David Rittich Graeme Clarke (P)
**Calgary retains 50% of Reinhart's remaining contract
Sabres agree. This one came out of left field, and after considering the impact given I'm running hot right now, I still couldn't turn this down.
Reinhart is a clear upgrade from DeBrusk and while Rinne, who's come full circle now haha, is 38 and a little pricey for his abilities, he's adequate for now given that Cam Talbot has been exemplary for me thus far.
Great talks Theo!

Calgary agrees.
Rinne played exactly one game with Calgary before being shipped out for Rittich who lives in Calgary all year round. It just made sense. Reinhart has been asked about a lot this season by other GMs. I felt the time was right to leverage him for a player that I wanted. We get younger up front and in net.
Hopefully this is a deal that works out for both organizations.
Thanks Thomas.
