Reinhart for TDA

Buffalo need one or two Top 6 Fowards.....The only place that we have depth is RHD, so 0% chance this trade works

lol these 2 aren't really on the same planet.

But also the premise is pretty wrong. Buffalo doesn't need Defensive help. They have a top 10 defense. What they need desperately is goaltending help. Ullmark and Hutton are both below average and UPL's struggles in the ECHL aren't inspiring.

Reinhart is pretty similar to Strome in that he's a 65-70 point player with an elite linemate. 80+% of Reinhart's NHL minutes have been spent dragged along by ROR and Eichel. He was a 45-50 point player next to ROR and a 60-70 point player with Eichel. Logically next to lesser linemates he'd a 35-40 point player....similar to Ryan Strome.

Swap Deangelo for Strome + 2nd and you'd be a lot closer in value...

Ullmark is fine just has injury concerns. They do need a better 1b or backup. UPL was an ECHL all-star this year too, he struggled a little bit in his limited AHL action.

Ullmark has been pretty terrible - 57th out of the 65 goalies over the last 2 seasons who have faced 1000 shots. number 58 was Martin Jones lol.

UPL plays behind a very good defense but his individual play has been pretty poor, he's a middle of the road ECHL goaltender. SV% is close to league average.

It was his first two years. A .915 save percentage is pretty good. They need another reliable goalie that can see the puck that can play 30 games. I don’t know too much about the Cincy ECHL team, but a .912 save percentage for a 20 year old isn’t bad. Hopefully an AHL season happens next year to see how close he is.
