I'm not sure what your argument is here, these players all were better than Reinhart this season.

Draisaitl had 9 more points in 7 less games
Larkin had 3 more points
Bennett had 6 less points
Ekblad won ROY last season


I loved Reinhart's development over this past year, but is he better than really anyone above? I mean, he's not worse, but what exactly are we celebrating?

THE 4 MONTH PISSING CONTEST WHEN YOU F!CKERS SAID HE EITHER DIDN'T BELONG IN THE NHL OR COULDN'T GET MORE THAN 30 POINTS IN THE NHL


or is that a big pill for many to swallow here?

Reinhardt is barely the best of him Banety or Ekbald.

Panarin wins, Eichel is nominated because he's second in points, and one of either Ghost or McDavid is also nominated. It doesn't make sense to me to nominate both McDavid and Ghost based on projections of what they could have done in 82 games when Eichel is second in points and goals

Is he the best of the bunch? He's a lot closer than he was 4 months ago.

you can make a case, if the skunk kicks it up one more notch next season, he will be the best of the bunch

I think he will be. After this season hopefully he adds more strength and works on his skating.

His vision is out of this world.

I think he can be similar to Tavares.

The Skunks overall game leaves the majority of Rookies in the dust . His movement without the puck is what I marvel at . Always probing, always looking for the weakness in both the offensive and defensive zone. It is not a fluke how he always seems to be in the right place at the right time . His movement is so fluid he can almost lull you to sleep and it seems like he is not using any effort . But the fact is his hockey sense is so off the charts that is movements are so efficient. I see his ceiling as infinitely higher in the long run.

Assuming the others don't, sure.

I think he has a long way to go to beat out Ekblad.

Okay, of which only three of those players were mentioned in the article, and all three of the mentioned players had more points. Reinhart had a decent rookie campaign, Panarin, Eichel, Domi, McDavid, Gostisbehere, and Duclair all had better ones. Like I said, I am not sure what your argument is.

I agree, but Draisaitl's physical talents are out of this world, Bennett's speed and tenacity is pretty great, Ekblad is already a #1 D on a playoff team

I just think that whole group is way closer than anybody thought

It's so hard to judge for me who is better between a forward and a d-man.

How do you compare the two? What metrics do you use?

Remember when everyone said this was a "Weaker draft" and the top end talent was "meh"

That was fun...

different position though, plus the sabres had no chance to draft him


it was bennett this
draisaitl that
larkin this
pastrnak that


I said then, and I will stand by it

Reinhart will be one of the ten best players drafted in the nhl between when Patty Kane was drafted and when mathews gets drafted this summer

I can't help you if you don't see what I was getting at


and I disagree Domi had a better year
