Very good comparable. Perry is another one.
Reinbacher better be a top pairing or it us a miss of a pick.
Mailloux is most definitely a 2nd pairing and himself could surprise some people as a top pair guy. I'm big on him.
It's very possible the Habs have a Need/BPA strategy in terms of who we pick.
One thing to note is we went after skating/size and hot trending picks with both Slaf and Reinbacher. Whoever we pick, I think we have the same strategy. To me, that looks like Tij Iginla in this draft.
Both Slaf and Reinbacher had this on their resume:
* Hot trending player
* Size/weight
* Skating is very good
* Compete level is very good
Are fans going to go insane if we pass on both Demidov and Lindstrom and take Iggy? Would kind of remind me of passing on Wright/Michkov and taking Slaf/Reinbacher right?
Reinbacher to me is our Lindholm pick the Ducks made in 2013. Doubt he puts up 40+ pts as a D man but he's just going to be good all around. Someone you can ride 25 min a game and makes the coaches job easy
