Prospect Info: David Reinbacher

[Adam Michaels]

We pick 5, 31, 37 and leave the draft with Reinbacher and Newhook lol. Can’t make this shit up

I personally like this outcome. A guy with the potential to be a Top-6 and a Top-4 RD who could also be your #1 down the road.

 

[ReHabs]

The Habs Galaxy Brain'd it didn't they?

 

[Vachon23]

I’ve got news for you. Reinbacher isn’t either. Guhle is better than him.

I’m pretty confident we have a #1 Dmen in him and a lot of scouts agree since he was ranked in the top 10:

This team is so disappointing. If Askarov, 15 and 24 was truly on the table, how do you not take that deal?

5, 31, and 37 into Newhook and Reinbacher.

Woof

 

[OnTheRun]

Brutal pick. What a bad day for Montreal. If you were so desperate to pick him, why not trade down?

His hard floor was the Yotes, so you can't move if you want him.

Look who Arizona took at 6. They were 100% going to take Reinbacher. Trade down makes sense if you felt OK with getting Leonard as plan B.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Dont know but if he becomes a number 1 RHD its a win even if you want the flash of Michkov or whoever.

We will see. If it doesnt work, well, then Managment will be canned.

Dont like drafting for need though and this feels like it

Why does our management, no matter who we have, seem to always think they're smarter than everyone else. I can't believe they did this. So all we get for 2 years on the bottom is slavkosky and reinbacher? And this being touted as a great draft, especially for forwards. So let's take a defenseman! Not a great one at that either. Morons! Hughes and gorton look smart and talk smart but it's just cosmetic. We should have known by what they did at new york. Great drafts there too. And we're stuck with this team for probably a decade. Sorry for the rant but I'm just so disappointed. And we don't have our late first and second for another Mesar. What is wrong with these people?

6 teams passed on Michkov. So I'm not sure the habs think they're smarter than everyone. They had the same concern as 6 other teams who also passed on the "second best player in the draft."

 

[Kaladin]

There will be no more stars, ever, lol

Yes yes everyone loves the sarcastic guy in the corner. Best chance at getting a star in the nhl is drafting high. Do you agree or disagree with that statement?

The habs will only be better not worse moving forward. Do you agree or disagree?

If you agree with both of those things then the only way we hit on a star is by luck when we draft lower. Great way to run a franchise. On a wing and a prayer.

 

[Hope Of Glory]

We really needed a future top pairing defenseman. Hopefully he is that guy because otherwise passing on Michkov will suck.

But I've Reinbacher all year. Great skater, good size, good defender and great production vs men in the top swiss league. Usually guys his age don't even play in that league and yet he put up .5 PPG. There's a lot to like there, regardless of Michkov.

This draft will probably make or break Hughes. Lets hope they picked correctly.

 

[Vachon23]

Brutal pick. What a bad day for Montreal. If you were so desperate to pick him, why not trade down?

Because he was getting pick at 6

 

[Walrus26]

Brutal pick. What a bad day for Montreal. If you were so desperate to pick him, why not trade down?

Because he was going to Arizona at #6, for certain.

 

[rickthegoon]

This feels as bad as the KK pick.

 

[Mr Kot]

Not a bad pick at all. Montreal hasn't had a possible top pair for some time, Reinbacher is going to be that one. Right handed too, don't poo-poo this pick just yet.

 

[RC51]

ok, well I did NOT expect that. BUT I need to see the rest of the draft just in case MTL makes a trade to get back in to the 1st round and then that might now make sense.

 

[Favster]

Reinbacher is nothing like Fischer. Nothing.

This place is insane right now lol.

Guys, I get it, it isn't a sexy pick but trust, this guy will be a stud for a long time. He put up incredible stats in his draft season in a men's league and his biggest strength is his defense. We got a good one.

 

[Eye of Ra]

price is low iq

 

[The Great Weal]

Dont know but if he becomes a number 1 RHD its a win even if you want the flash of Michkov or whoever.

I think Reinbacher can become a 30-40 point 2way dman.

We are drafting by need. Slaf last year because we wanted moar size, and now we see that Barron and Mailloux cannot both be in the top 4 due to their defensive game.

 

[CanadienShark]

Look who Arizona took at 6. They were 100% going to take Reinbacher. Trade down makes sense if you felt OK with getting Leonard as plan B.

So be it. He's not worthy of #5. He doesn't bring anything we don't already have.

 

[Pickles]

Guhle, Mailloux, Reinbacher. 3 big boys with size and skill. All 3 big minute munchers. Add Hutson and his skillset to them and you got yourself a future Top-4 who you can win with. And then you have the Sheriff on the third pair causing pain.

This is a killer d-corp. You can never have enough skilled defenseman.

 

[Garbageyuk]

None of those guys are futur #1 Dmen expect maybe Guhle and a top 4 is the most important thing in hockey

Reinbacher isn’t either.

 

[CoopersFalls]

Was iffy about 5th for Askarov and 15th.

I take it back, I’d rather 5th for Askarov straight up!

 

[Jaynki]

Solid pick.

Reinbacher, Guhle, Hutson. It has the making of a top defense corps in the league

I know many will be sour but Reinbacher truly has a case as BPA at 5.

 

[BLONG7]

Has anyone seen this kid play?
I thought they would pick a forward too guys, but the sky is not falling.
