Lapierre is right.

 

[SannywithoutCompy]

that shot looked weak af....... right in the chest the plekanec special

Yeah, can't believe this guy who's been out for a year and is a veteran at training camp didn't stop up and clap it bardown. Why did we even get him?

 

[Jaynki]

Lapierre is right.

Strange sequence to make this claim honestly. Although it has not lead to offensive rushes, the transition ability is on full display here.

We got him to ruin our room and chemistry!

He did add this

Yes, Reinbacher did miss his clearance on that play, but claiming he was in a transition situation on this sequence is a false premise on the initial analysis.

We need to hold pseudo-hockey analysts jabronis accountable.

Josh Gorges made a career of doing this even if he had open passing options

Reinbacher is fine.

i don't remember the last Habs prospect that had a microscope on him like Reiny does. guy does nothing wrong and it turns into a series of tweets

Does Reinbacher have the let’s go boys ability in the lockeroom though ?

I don't think people, including Josh Gorges himself, understood just how much he owed to P.K. Subban.

Because casual fans are used to watching highlights which always include players like Makar and Quinn Hughes going end-to-end and think that’s the only way you can be effective in the league as a defenceman.

Here we go Redbacher!

 

[Skip Bayless]

I'm pro-Reinbacher, but I can't lie that the Reinbuster moniker is infectious.

Yes he plays a style of game that many fans don’t understand how important it is.

Look at Hamrlik how he was massively under appreciated

Hamrlik is a great comparison. Just good at everything and makes the team infinitely better. Never stands out though.

i agree about casual fans but if you're gonna pretend to be a journalist, eh... it almost feels like they want to see him fail or they think all we need is Mailloux on RD

 

[Redux91]

Be careful out there Kirby

Lol he really makes it hard to push back the injury obsessed skeptics mannnn

 

[Deebs]

Do most teams have thousands of fans who would watch it anyway on a Friday morning?

Every Canadian market will as well as a handful US based teams.

 

[Tyson]

Poor Roy….. one or 2 scrimages with these 2 plugs is enough to get you sent to Laval

Yeah the kiss of death playing with those two.

 

[Deebs]

Yeah the kiss of death playing with those two.

By the sounds of it, Roy isn't bringing much to the table either. Hope he doesn't think he's a lock.

This guy just signed for $8m+. Most fans would be hard pressed to name a 'sexy' quality about Seider's game, outside of his slapshot. Rein had a better D year than Seider, though struggled in his d+1 thanks to Kloten being a tire fire. Once he got to Laval, he immediately caught up to Seider's AHL D+1 point production rate, albeit in a smaller sample size.
