I agree with your assessment OP but where do you put him? I'm not so sure he would currently be ahead of Roslovic at his current play. Even at his best how far off would Roslovic be if he had top 9 minutes from Reinhart's best season of 47 points? I'm not sure I see a spot for him here if Roslovic can't be a regular player.
I'd like the Jets to find an upgrade to help their PK and overall GA if they are going to give up assets to improve this team.

I was thinking same that Jets don't really have "perfect spot" for him, but if the price is right he could become steal.
Perreault - Scheifele - Laine
Connor - Wheeler - Armia
Ehlers - Little - Reinhart
Copp - Lowry - Tanev

If I'm the Sabers I'm not looking to give him away. A package of our trash isn't going to do it. There will be a decent price on him.

A current scratch/a fingers crossed hopefully 3rd liner and a 5-10% chance at a NHL player for a guy who had 47 points last year. I'd be asking for more.
Guys in this situation usually don't get traded. Underachieving young guys don't command a premium. And Buffalo has an opening they'd need to fill as soon as they trade him.
My guess is they are looking at swapping him for a good young D and someone caught wind of it.

In my opinion the Jets would need at the moment a very good playmaker for the offence and also at least one for the defence. These players could help the general offensive play big time, and also make the power play even much deadlier than it is at the moment. The PP has been for sure good when comparing it to last season, but in my opinion it is still lacking the clear playmakers, both from the forwards and from the defencemen.
I honestly don’t see much of use for Reinhart. I never saw him even close to the prospect that he was hyped to be. And for sure he has not become anything special. Not really that great in anything, although pretty ok in many things. The Jets have already this type of players that have still better special skills than Reinhart has.
For example Lowry is much better defensively, Armia has much better hands and skating, Copp is much better with his skating and tenacity and I at least believe that Roslovic is generally a more skillful player, although I’m not sure of that yet though. The only reason to get Reinhart in my opinion would be how he is versatile in that way that he can play pretty well either as a center or a winger.
But I’m really afraid that his price would anyway be way too high for how mediocre player he really is after all. Just don’t see a real reason to go for him. Get the playmakers for both the offence and the defence and I’ll start being pretty happy with the Jets roster.

I agree that Powerplay needs better playmakers, we have the defenseman already ( Morrissey ) but he is sitting on bench.
That package doesn't get you much. Reinhart still has too much draft pedigree to get him on a low ball offer.
I think you always should try to acquire assets to improve your team and organizational depth.
However, I doubt Reinhart will be worth what Buffalo wants. Too risky of a play, especially considering how our forward talent is developing, and how we already have players like Reinhart who can't make the team.
If the right deal came for him, indeed - but I'd rather work on improving our defensive depth - specifically the guys who are currently 'cooking'. We are pretty weak there right now.

Bergevin sent me an offer sheet
I mean if we could trade Marko Dano for him I don't see why not, even better if we could trade De Leo or some Moose guys for him.

Give them Connor/Morrissey + Dano and they will maybe consider it. That's the reality.
nobody important
