I think reinhart plays a good team first style. Always goes strong to the net, never neglects his duties on the forecheck or backcheck. Lets his teamates drive the play. The kid Knows how to play and might not ever have the speed to be flashy but he was a safe pick. Only been a handful of games to judge him off of. Probably too soon for this but i appreciate that you are trying to keep the conversation going though!

None of this is being disputed. It's the part where the expectations of a 2nd overall pick are higher than that.

Reminds me a lot of the Jordan Staal situation in Pittsburgh. Never really looked like a typical 2nd overall pick but the team has never been the same since they moved him.

I expect a #1 overall pick to be a superstar. 2-10 i expect to crack the nhl by their 2nd year and by their 3rd year start being a good player/point producer. There are exceptions ofcourse. For instance if a player is praised for being a generational talent.

Id expect the same out of reinhart as i did out of ristolanen both being top 10 picks.

Oh ok, a couple teams asked about Reinhart, Ennis and the number 2 pick before and Murray said no. I think I mentioned that to you before ?

From what I was told, the Hawks called about Reinhart, Ennis, the 2nd overall pick for P Kane and Murray said no. Hawks also tried at the dead line to move Kane to the Sabres. No once again from Murray.

Ducks had interest in Ennis when Darcy was here and Darcy said no, they have some interest once again.

I wouldn't have done eichel, ennis and reinhart for kane.

So next year hall of fame class....

Mogilny
Andreychuk
Lindros

Last thing we need IMO is P Kane on this team, great player don't get me wrong but his contract is horrible.

I would like to see Kariya in thay group too, but I don't think he has a shot until Lindros is in.

Sadly the safe bets are probably Roenick, Recchi and Lindros. I don't see any first time eligible candidates making it.

Edit: oh and I like to see Fleury get into too, was one of my favorites as a kid.

I thought I mentioned it, the Hawks called 2 times about trying to move Kane to the Sabres, before draft.

Oh no you mentioned that part I just forgot it was Reinhart who was discussed on our end.

@TSNBobMcKenzie: Justin Abdelkader on verge of finalizing 7-year contract extension with DET. AAV is expected to be $4M+.


Why is this a thing?

Watching the Ducks and Oilers, Oilers have a lot of young talent on that team.

Nuge developed a ton last year, real underrated player imo.
Yak has the skill but the hockey IQ is lacking (Mcdavid should fix that)
Hall can be the best player on the ice...when healthy
Draisaitl is going to be their wildcard
Lastly i thought Schultz was going to be a rock for them but he's a tire fire in the d zone

The same. I certainly wouldn't pay him more yet. He needs to prove more to get a deal bigger than that. Zemgus is a good bridge contract guy with his numbers. He will want to have a big season to up his contract in the next two years.

And we're back to The Iliad.
