It's also not page 10 yet.

I hope but I doubt it.

Reinhart can skate fast and is intelligent
Tavares is slow but has crazy hands and vision.
- sbroads24

Both scouting profiles are below I took out both names. They are the same size as well who is who?:


Player A
He is very composed and never panics under pressure. Has great ability with the puck, but is improving substantially on his defensive play without it. Not afraid to mix it up physically and has added a little more of that element to his game. At 6’0”, 183 lbs, he will get bigger, but is already strong at protecting the puck and working down low.

He has great vision and anticipates plays before they develop. Has excellent offensive ability, with a quick hard accurate shot and is a threat to score anytime he has the puck. He has under-rated passing abilities. One on one he is absolutely deadly and is deceptive to read on what he will do with the puck. He has a very sublime hockey IQ. He definitely thinks the game at a higher level than anyone else.

---
Player B
He has been a dominant player since arriving full time as a 16-year old. He is superbly gifted and skilled and can dominate games in many facets. His intelligence stands out and he is always steps ahead of the play. Combined with excellent feet and hands, he is able to be a prolific offensive contributor. Versatile and adaptable to changing circumstances make him very difficult to keep in check. He is a nice blend of poise, maturity and a high hockey IQ. He's got creative hands, excellent vision and superb instinct in the offensive end. He's able to slow things down and dissect the play. He battles hard and is a true team leader

IMO Reinhart = Tavares. DalColle and Dras are not in that class.

Reinhart is much better than both in tersm of everything else he brings to the table along with the offensive talent
- ImThatGuy

Dal Colle is a bull who uses his natural talents well. He's got an imposing frame and already shows great balance and strength on his skates. He plays a two-way game, battles hard and displays quick hands for his size. (August 2013)
"William exudes confidence when he plays. Exceptional poise with the puck and is always looking to make threatening plays in the offensive zone. Excellent skater who is very difficult to check because of his agility and because he is always changing pace. Can make pinpoint passes in traffic and if you are his line mate, best be ready, as he will provide opportunities. Top line type player."

Leon is a blend of skill and power and comfortable in either element. His skill derives from excellent hockey sense and the ability to make plays and recognize what is unfolding. His power is more along the lines of being hard to deter and imposing himself on opponents, with a serious determination to make a difference. Skating is good with much room to improve. A Top 2 line type forward."

Works for me

Thats just not true your going to have a chance to get a better prospect with the higher the pick I dont see how you can possibly make a case otherwise besides your opinion that this draft is comprised of all the same talent in the top 10. The lateral move to go down say from 2nd to 3-4th is not worth a scenario of taking someone like Ekblad and then moving a d-man like Risto-McCabe-Pysyk etc and whatever else for a top 6 scorer.

I surrender!

Ok you win take Ekbald have 10 top 6 d men and 3 3rd lines will love to see the 1-0 shootout loss

cant fault me for trying to goad the kid into some bad decisions in the hopes of making my day better

A. Reinhart

A ) JT
B ) Reinhart.


I happen to think they are very similar.

A- Reinhardt
B- Ekblad

Its actaully
A) John Tavares
B) Sam Reinhart

Hmm interesting.

I can tell you right now Reinhart is a much better skater than what JT was.

That makes it all the more better. Im all in for Reinhart.

Ok you win take Ekbald have 10 top 6 d men and 3 3rd lines will love to see the 1-0 shootout loss
- hubie

Top 6 D men?

So regardless, if your a NHL d man you also fall under the category as a top 6 guy just because your on the actual roster no?

Ekblad is projected to be a top pairing beast

- SiloCity

Then let someone trade up to get him.

You will not get full value for any of our young defensemen right now. It's almost like a new car, it loses value once it leaves the lot (or is drafted). I highly doubt we could get the 8th pick in the draft for Ristolainen right now. Teams want "their guy". Let someone get their guy in Ekblad and fleece them in the process

- SiloCity

is supposed to be want to view the long list of top 5 d men that did not become beasts
what happens when in 3 years then when you have to pay myers zadorov and risto? Who goes?

p.s. if hes such a beast then why is my yak trade so one sided?

is that the best you got?
- hubie

I don't want to get a ban today ...

but ...

I just dont understand why people would favor a Buffalo Sabres team in a scenario where Reinhart is off the board

with taking Ekblad and moving another piece for top 6 help

over

trading down for a different forward in the 2014 draft

you honestly think we lack a D man capable of bringing in a forward who's is equal or greater talent than one of the other forwards not named Reinhart?

You get the best of both world in having a major upgrade on the blueline and having another great chance of acquiring scoring help...

Gents.... whats going on??

what have I missed?

A ) JT
B ) Reinhart.

the only thing keeping Reinhart from being a elite prospect is his Skating..

he get's that worked out look out

cause if hes there we take it we assume we will be dead last so if we dont get 1 we get 2

if hes there you take him end of story............... reeding is good, can we start the story now

dont forget hes playing on a team with much less talent then Halifax had, could you imagine if he had a drouin with him

- hubie

Who was the last d man this highly touted?
The kid is going to be great.

Tavares,McDavid,Day, and Ekblad...only exceptional status players to date in the OHL

Hes not the position of Need on this team but you dont pass him up if hes there

I think it's more realistic to see a trade for the draft pick than to see us find a partner to make a trade for players with.

Holy god all mighty Im IN FAVOR OF TAKING SAM REINHART NO QUESTIONS ASKED

Im not talking about that in this post jesus christ how can you not understand this?
