Description
I signed Reinbacher and put him on the scratched list, but this is only to show that if they sign him he may play the first 10 games but would be sent back down to AHL. So don’t count the 24th player on roster. If he stays, then bury Hoffman, waiver him but pay him to stay home. Unless you have a sense he can actually play in Laval and not be a problem… which is … probably not the situation.

The bigger question is, what would NYR want for Lafreniere? He hasn’t developed into the franchise player they thought, he was a Gorton pick so may be a player he’s targeting to bring in. Could NYR think about getting a prospect centerman and a good young defenseman who both cost low on the cap plus a 2nd round 2024 and a 2025 1st (which would be top 5 protected and could become unprotected 2026 with a third…)???

I don’t see NYR looking for a fully paid NHLer with the team they have, they are good, I figure they would want that cap space and get prospects for Lafreniere.. This would still provide them with the capability of signing Tarasenko for a year or so.

Additional Details:
NYR get to keep the space, they get Beck and Kovacevic who are two great prospects with minimal cap hit. A first that could become a first and third.

They have a gap at RW, so probably Mesar or Roy instead of Beck.

I’d give Mesar if they wanted him. Just think that Beck is a better prospect for them.

Gotta remember, teams love overdrafting centers cause they can move them to the wing if needed. Versus wingers aren’t really good being moved to center..

But yeah, I see the possibility there.

Btw... Reinbacher is staying in Switzerland to finish his last year of business school. He already spoke about it publicly.

Of course. We are well aware that all players the Habs have are trash. Everyone not wearing a NYR sweater is!
