Prospect Info: David Reinbacher - Get Well Soon Edition

[Redux91]

Hopefully, Laval goes on a long playoff run, and he manages to play 30-40 games (reg + playoffs), and he looks good enough so that we can pencil him to the NHL lineup for next season.

Hutson - Matheson
Guhle - Carrier
Xhekaj - Reinbacher

That's the dream , jimmy

Matheson must be turned into a real RD1 before its too late tho

But I can see them try to give RD3 to Reinbacher next year if Mailloux is traded in the summer or something

Curious about when his Entry Level Contract expires. I'm under the assumption that he signed for three years:
2023-24 played 11 games in Laval
2024-25 let's assume he plays a few games towards the end of the season
Does that make him eligible to sign a new contract on July 1st for 2026-27 and beyond?

Puckpedia shows his current contract going until the end of 2026-27. I'm assuming that's accurate but I'm not sure why. Does the 11 games in Laval simply bump the contract 1 year because no games were in the NHL?

ELC contract slide for 18-19 year old players who didn't play 10 NHL games. He also has 5 years from his signing at 18 and 160 NHL games of waiver exemption.

Guys don't worries about Reinbacher's knees.
The medical technology to replace or repair a knee is nuts now indays.
They end up with a better knee after the surgery, look at Monahan and Dach.
The only thing that sucks is that he lost a full year of not playing,, sets him back a bit.
I still have faith in Reinbacher, he still can end up being the best D of the draft.

Is this sarcasm about the better knee lol, Dach has the worst agility in the league

Maybe you haven't been watching for the past 2-3 weeks. He's moving great out there and he's also a giraffe on skates lol

Just another person who put their stake in their ground on a player at their worst and won't change their opinion.

Someone forgot about Carey Price's knee lmao

There is nothing in the orthopedic field that can repair the knee with proper hyaline cartilage. Most for fibrocartilage and it's not same density or strength. So the stress that hockey players put onto their knees will overpower that weak cartilage (let alone if collateral or cruciate ligaments are affected). It's chronic and the more they put stress on them, the more they develop osteochondral lesions and marrow edema (bone swelling) and so forth. So no, there are no better knees yet. It's TKA awaiting.

If no cartilage damage, prognosis is definitely better.

He can't turn without making a big circle, he gets his ankles broken a lot defensively

He can move in a straight line but side to side mobility he is clearly one of the worst in the league
