RD Chase Reid - SSM Greyhounds, OHL (2026 Draft)

Had 1+1 last night. Now 4 points in 5 games. It’s not some big surprise either. He was the best player for the USA at the non-NTDP tournament summer 2023. Better than players like Rombach, Kevan, Simpson. Somehow didn’t get a Hlinka camp invite the next summer. Crazy.

2 assists tonight. Team gave up 10, so he might’ve been at fault for some goals, but he was one of the 3 stars of the game, so it couldn’t have went that bad for him. Has 6 points in 7 games so far with Soo. Second highest PPG of 2026 eligibles in the league. Only Roobroeck ahead, and Reid is doing so as a defenseman compared to Roo a forward. If you throw him in there with the 2025’s, only behind Schaefer and Cameron Reid (unrelated) for defenseman. Only 7 games, but yeah he’s good.

 
Yea and i saw Engle and Mcrate 2007 dmen - both on hlinka cup having tough year in ushl both traded yesterday . I think especially for dmen ushl favors 19-20 year olds which is common sense . not that many 2007 dmen doing great

It's a defensive league and USHL coaches approach it like the NCAA: defense heavy/structure, which lends itself to older veterans. Plus, the league is mostly a NCAA prep league, thus all of these guys coming out of MN HS, HS-Prep, AAA at 18 or 19 years old leads to a much older league than the CHL leagues, so Reid gets the shaft. Good to see him getting an extended run in the O

Truly incompetent by USAH that neither him or Nycz made the Hlinka roster. Reid didn’t even get invited to the camp.

Did they have some Connelly-like issues to cause it as Connelly had his 16 year old year with USAH when they suspended him from roster consideration?

i was saying mcrate and engle both 2007 made it - unknowns- just got traded in ushl after looks like difficult starts with their teams . how Henry bruczieski( spelled wrong ) of london didnt make it - who was battling first round picks up there and will go either late first to late second round is more baffling . zero accoutability

Yeah, it's truly wild none of those guys made it.

When you think of it, we could've had a very good blue line

Rombach-Fiddler
Nycz-Reid
Grimes-Brzustewicz

That would arguably be the best US blue line as long as I can remember the US icing at the Hlinka. So I think the players were there, but for some reason they picked all those bums you mention and didn't pick half of that blue line I mention. Crazy to me.
 
Assisted three of the four goals Soo scored in a 4-0 win. Has 9 points in 8 games. All three assists were basically hard point shots by him that resulted in scrambles around the net and goals (had 5 SOG and is 4th for OHL defensemen in SOG/G).



8 games, so let’s see if this can be sustained (almost certainly not to this level), but this is the company he’s in.

Scoring over 1PPG in D-1 (or younger) season for CHL defensemen since 2000:

Chase Reid
Landon DuPont

That’s it.

There’s only been four draft eligible defensemen seasons in the OHL since 2000 above what his current PPG is. The Q hasn’t even had a draft eligible defensemen at or above his PPG in that span, let alone a D-1. WHL has only had two draft eligible seasons of that in that span outside of DuPont (and one of them was 11 games of Zellweger).

And Reid isn’t 5’7. He’s 6’2 and an amazing skater. Starting to think he’s even better than I initially thought.

He will be considered as a first round pick by most scouting services for the 26 Draft.

thats the huge benifit for usa kids to play in the chl going forward . if you have a great year in chl your draft stock will climb and dramatically more offense in chl over the ushl . none of the 2007 draftable dmen really doing anything in ushl .
 
2 assist game. Both primaries.

This one was insane. Gives a player a cross ice near tap-in. Missed. Gets the puck back a few seconds later and a great cross slot pass for an easy one time goal.
