Correct. He's more electric.

He has more star power to his game, Reinhart is just good all around

Reinhart hopefully is perfect for what we are building

Yea, I think so too. Wouldn't surprise me if Bennett is the better scorer though.

I think it may come down to ice time. If Bennett's playing 1st line wing and top pp and Reinhart's playing 2nd line C and top PK... (which is certainly plausible).

I think Bennett will have injury issues due to his play style.

Definitely. I think Reinhart will do a lot of things off the score sheet as well.

Bennett was voted smartest player in his conference by coaches though too. He has intangibles

It's easy to like the flashy player more. Especially when he is the only one playing in the playoffs right now.

No I don't write anything for Yahoo or anywhere else. I'm just a fan who has his opinion. I watched Reinhart live and he was a joke. I can't believe we wasted a second overall pick on a guy who skates worse than Paul Gooser. Even Reinhart himself in an interview said he needs to work on his speed, strength AND intensity. He said Intensity 5 times in one interview which is NOT a good sign. David Cooper also said he "needed to work on his intensity"...How'd that work out? I don't like heartless players lacking in desire.

So he's played 3 games in Rochester and got 3 points. Not enough for you?

If he keeps getting lit up like that we won't even need to discuss this after next year...

Neither's a slouch and I think both have what it takes to win. But there's no doubt in my mind that there will be plenty of "The grass is always greener on the other side" moments.

That's worth mentioning as well. He's got a nose for the net but how many games will he miss because of it.

Missed the entire season basically plus went out in game 1 I think? Kid is good, just already racking up injuries in the NHL

That's nuts

30. Stanley Cup Winner
29. Runner Up
28. Conference Finalist
27. Conference Finalist
15-26. rest of playoff ordered by points, division winners, no matter of points seeded last

Since STL won their division, they'll have a lower pick than the NYI as long as NYI dont reach the conference finals. If STL doesnt advance to the CF but the Islanders do, thats a worse case scenario for us because the Blues were a division winner. Our other 1st round pick will be mid-20's.

But if Isles lose in 1st or 2nd round, AND any combination of the teams in front of them make the conference finals (Ottawa, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Calgary, Winnipeg, Minnesota) then their pick goes higher in the 1st round for us.

I think the major difference is Reinhart has the personality of a wet noodle. But then again lot of NHLrs have this problem. Bennetts intensity definatly is exciting to watch. I think Reinhart will make this tem out of camp and do fine

They did today, completely normal to have more than one ball vacuumed up

Edit: i was thinking one of them wouldve freaked out, but theyre were good cracked a few TM jokes about he should call the winer line hahah

Thought from my older brother this weekend:

Trade Arizona Reinhart for their 3rd + and reunite Reinhart, Domi & Duclair

We draft Echiel & Hanifin

Trade Zadorov plus to Edmonton for Eberle

It's a decent idea but I don't know if Reinhart gets you third overall. Can't imagine oilers would move eberle now.

Few quick points: auston matthews broke Kanes, kessel and eichels record this year. I thought he was a truck in the WJC this winter interesting to see where he goes next year. Juniors or college

Imo: im not worried (yet). I saw Samson this past friday and he looked fine. I was laughing with a friend because he doesn't look like your typical hockey player but makes good play after good play. Also remember Bennett has had a year to develop since Reinhart played.

Also easier to generate offense on a fast pace scoring team than a historical league low scoring team with bottom 6 linemates. Still wish Reinhart stayed up this season and was loaned for the WJC. Honestly there wasnt much harm in keeping him here wouldve been better than Varone, D'amigo imo
