Prospect Info: David Reinbacher

[salbutera]

 

[Rapala]

If he does I am good with that too. Remember when Caufield signed he played 2 games in Laval then came up.

Whatever happens I'm pleased we've taken the whole possibly getting injured in a stupid relegation series out of the equation.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

lmao my bad i thought it was him playing and you guys were going crazy hahaha I deserve the flame gents

 

[dinodebino]

David, pack your shit.

 

[salbutera]

David, pack your shit.

Engstrom not far behind..

 

[Captain Mountain]

David, pack your shit.

David, get ready to learn Lavalese.

 

[Andrei79]

I hope too but honestly maybe KH is planning to make him play in Montreal?

Anything is better than Dumbacevic. But I'm buying every ticket I can for the rocket, so hopefully Laval or I'm screwed.

 

[Paddy17]

He's one of those players whose greatest strength is preventing plays from happening before they begin, and doing so in a boring way haha. So many can get fooled in thinking he doesn't excel anywhere but he's a guy that will control the game and close out leads, which is exactly what we want to complement all the offensive Dmen in the system.

And that's one thing Markov used to excel at too, which is why his defensive game was severely underestimated. He was mostly recognized for his offense.

Reinbacher doesn't have Markov's offensive game, but the defensive IQ and transition game can be invaluable down the road for a contender.

 

[Hinterland]

What make you so sure he is going to come to Laval? Does he not have exam?

He does but probably in June, not now. For now he only has classes and a 50% job, both doable from abroad. Is he gonna fly to Canada ahead of the exams? It's possible but I don't think it's a certainty. That decision will be made in the next few hours. I still think playing for Austria is an option as well.

Laval in a intense stretch would benefit Reinbacher and Engstrom

David, get ready to learn Lavalese.

[Gustave]

You know who’s going to lose his spot? Barron, that’s who.

His time is done here I’d say.

 

[Adam Michaels]

I hope too but honestly maybe KH is planning to make him play in Montreal?

If he plays a game for Montreal, he'd no longer be eligible for Laval.

Even if plays for Laval first, the moment he plays 1 game in Montreal, he can't be sent back to Laval until next season.

Classique Poudy & Chabot

 

[Hinterland]

Now we'll know if the orther guy was right about Reinbacher staying there to finish his studying, man are we desperate as a fan base

He's gonna finish his studies 100% and he's gonna write exams in Switzerland in June I think. Now the question is what he's gonna do until then. Flying to Canada is an option but so is representing Austria at the WC. We'll find out soon.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I won't quote everyone above but essentially, it seems like arm chair scouts see that only offensive traits can be 'elite' and that other traits can't be, which is why Reinbacher gets undervalued.

Yes his offensive tools aren't elite, but his poise with the puck is elite.. and there's a lot in his defensive game that project to be elite as well.

You simply don't get many chances to draft a smooth skating, rangy, athletic right shot defenseman with ice in their veins.

It doesn't look or sound sexy but as a goalie, and I'm sure what coaches and GMs will tell you, is that having that guy on the ice for 25 minutes a night is invaluable.

Not everything that contributes to winning is sexy and spectacular, sometimes it needs to be understated, subtle and efficient which is what Reinbacher is.

He will be the yin to Hutson’s yang.

 

[Sagikev]

Jesus, that was awful

Get ready to learn french buddy

Yeah HuGo might decide that Laval has enough munitions. But if they want the kid to taste a bit of NA pro hockey is, they will advise him to come.

 

[Goldenhands]

I watched Kloten for 3-4 games this year, so painful and hard to watch, hopefully thats the last player we draft out of NL.

Finally we will get the opportunity to see what he can do on smaller ice and more skilled teammates.

 

[Tyson]

You know who’s going to lose his spot? Barron, that’s who.

His time is done here I’d say.

I don't agree, management isn't giving up on such a young D prospect, one that has shown some NHL qualities.

For guy's who have great passing skills and hockey IQ this is the most important thing, that's why sometimes we see guy's having more succes in the NHL than they had in the AHL

 

[Redux91]

It hinged on how Mailloux would look in his 20 yr old AHL rookie season

He's looked pretty damn good all things considered

They took a stab with Barron and it's fine and I totally get it, it's clear now they didn't have all their eggs in just 1 basket, and they knew we don't really need 3 of Mailloux, Reinbacher and Barron to hit, we just need 2 of them to hit , and that bottom pairing can always be filled by a numbers of means and ways
Hell you could even sign a Savard again himself lmao but just play him bottom pairing minutes

 

[Gustave]

Something’s gotta give I’m afraid. There are limited spots in an org and with both DR, Engstrom and maybe Hutson coming in this very season, his role is now in high supply.
What he provides won’t hold up against who’s coming up.

You maybe right but I am not sure Hughes is ready to move on.
