It is becoming more and more obvious why the Habs coveted David Reinbacher, a very technically sound player
His NHL-confidence level had soured, consistently very good in the AHL. Hope Dobes will continue to improve as it seems Primeau will get an opportunity to be an NHL goalie in another organization. Habs brass saw his potential and kept him over Jake Allen, but it did not become a storybook ending. Hope he can lift the Calder Cup with the Rocket this year!Primeau is a really good goalie...will he ever be able to take his game another level?
Oh my god dudeArtist interpretation of the few Reinbacher fans defending him against the horde

Yeah, and you can’t be perfect all the time either.
When he is the last man back and he closes the gap at a wrong angle no smarter player can help that. When he closes the gap and takes out his man like he did later in that second period sure a smarter player would cover his ass. Unfortunately Barre Boulet was not the smarter player on that particular play.While I agree he needs to clean it up and take smarter angles in the NHL, he will also play with smarter forwards who should back him up more consistently.![]()
it's gonna be very satisfying when a Guhle-Reinbacher pairing shuts down McDavid in game 7 of the Stanley cup finals winning us our 25th title
One or the other it’s gonna be awesome.I've always imagined Reinbacher as a Hutson partner, and Guhle needs to stay healthy.
Yes me as well, but depending on the match up you would switch it around. Against guys like McDavid, Mackinnon, Hughes, I would expect our two best defensive defencemen to pair up and be exclusively deployed against them especially in a tight playoff series. Guhle without a reliable partner already plays well against McDavid.I've always imagined Reinbacher as a Hutson partner, and Guhle needs to stay healthy.
His offensive skills are eliteHe has his warts, but Mailloux can sure score goals.
Not sure the offensive skills are elite per say but his shot, yes.His offensive skills are elite
