Should be a steal with how good he looked as a panther
Or a disaster with how he looked before becoming a Panther
Should be a steal with how good he looked as a panther
With Reinhart being acquired and other Panther fans have told me that Lundell is getting called up, is he gonna play wing?
4x4,4 isn't that much in todays NHL so i find it very unlikely that it would be a disaster.Or a disaster with how he looked before becoming a Panther
whether the contract will end up being a steal or a burden will depend heavily on the usage of the player(s). Both Bennett and Reinhart thrived in the 1C/2C roles, but neither is about to dislodge Barkov. So at least one of them is going to get throttled and be underutilized
For Florida's sake that's realistically the best configuration, but Reinhart just got a taste of being 'the guy' and proved his worthiness in Eichel's absence; it's something that might complicate his current contract negotiations wrt how long term he'll be willing to commit to Florida knowing that he'll likely find himself stuck on the wing when he'd prefer to play the pivotHow’s that? Reinhart will play on Barkov’s wing, and Bennett will center Huberdeau and Duclair/Tippett on the second line.
That's a lot for Bennett coming from a Calgary fan. I think you'll find all Flames fans have an affinity for Benny, but I doubt he puts up more than 40 points next year. Hope he proves me wrong.
Reinhart for Buffalo started playing center and started playing better than he was then a winger.Reinhart is a winger.
As long as Bennett is stapled to Huberdeau, Bennett will put up 60+ points while adding a lot of physical play to the Panthers top 6.
Yep. Ryan Spooner was PPG for us (NYR) after we acquired him in the Nash trade to Boston at the deadline and then he fell off a cliff. Have to be careful with signings like thisThat seems very steep for a 15 game sample size.
In a small sample size Reinhart was good at C but remember he’s not good defensively and he’s a bad skater. That doesnt bode well going forward. Very likely he goes back to wing soon. May play a season or two at C thoughReinhart for Buffalo started playing center and started playing better than he was then a winger.
Could have been a hot streak but at the exact time to switch happened?
He won’t complain at all playing on Barkov’s wing.Reinhart for Buffalo started playing center and started playing better than he was then a winger.

Bennett is fake tough. He only started getting the reputation for being tough because he was disappointing offensively and decided to add a physical element to stay in the leagueSpooner was soft 1dimensional C, atleast Bennett brings/adds toughness if he goes for cold streaks offensively.
I have not seen anything that would indicate that.Bennett is fake tough. He only started getting the reputation for being tough because he was disappointing offensively and decided to add a physical element to stay in the league
Bennett has been a tough/physical player his entire career, even back in his Kingston daysBennett is fake tough. He only started getting the reputation for being tough because he was disappointing offensively and decided to add a physical element to stay in the league

They would if it was right after the playoffs. Guy has been their best post season player whenever they make it.If you told Flames fans 2 years ago that Bennet would be making 4.4M per year.... lol.... as if they'd ever take you seriously again.
And move him to the wing . . .They would if it was right after the playoffs. Guy has been their best post season player whenever they make it.
Then the flames drop him to 3rd or 4th line and he isn't good at that .
