I don't think you're paying enough attention then. He's got some serious jets.

Very underrated player IMO.

Because he doesn't light the lamp every 3rd game, punch ppl in the mouth, or hit everything.

He is a guy that seems to always be in the right place at the right time and makes the right play way more than not. He's a very good role player playing on a bad team. it's not having players like him as to why Edmonton is having issues. Zero depth in the bottom 6 can kill an organization and is the difference for an organization in the playoffs.


That said, this team is the exact opposite. Tons of bottom 6 help, not much top 6.

projected to get 23 points on the third line

one of our best 2 way players
descent on the pk

he has wheels

great work ethic, one of the few


watch him closely when the team is down 4 goals

One of the few that is still trying to make a comeback.

On a competent team he is a 35-40 point guy that shows up huge come playoffs.


He is one of the few i hope are still around when the team is good.

Flynn is easily replaced. He really doesn't do much for me. hes not fast, not big, not physical. He's just there.
- ImThatGuy


He does have good speed, I wouldn't say fast, but above average
And he's pretty good on the pk, some offensive ability & decent in his own end
Along with versitality to play wing or center
He's kind of the perfect 4th line guy on a good team
U font want all 3guys to be scrapers & bangers

Think about your above description,
How would u describe Paille?
I think he's a GREAT 4th liner. He's not physical, doesn't score much, but ok in his own end with decent speed & also a good pk guy
Flynn is comparable IMO

So the Sabres are rebuilding, well just mark the 4th line off the list, we have that!

Things are coming together, haha

- Lilroot9

i think we have the 2nd line as well.. but they are playing as the top line.. we need an entire top line at this point

Reinhart does have the opportunity to play AHL hockey next year. While I do think he will be here next year, it does pose an interesting scenario.
- dadeadhead


I don't think so
Generally u have 2 years of Junior eligibility after u get drafted, this is just his 1st year
Remember Grigorenko for example?
Reinhart wasn't overage as far as I know

He's been one of the most consistent players for the past two years IMO.

Homie and I loved the signing as a college UFA.

This is Reinharts 4th full season of JR's.


Rule is 20 years old or 4 full years of Jr's.


See Kirby Rychel.

You kind of just proved my point. You could go through every team and find a guy or two that Flynn compares to. Im not saying he is a bad player at all.

He can just be replaced.

Its not worth it. His next step is going to be asking why you are attacking him.
