Why The Canadiens Shouldn’t Draft Reinbacher at Five

When the Canadiens are on the clock next Wednesday for the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, there’s a very good chance they will be picking fifth, despite their best efforts to move up. But even in that scenario, the Canadiens will still be able to select a very good player, perhaps even a franchise-altering one. But that still depends on the Habs making the “right” pick, as not every player available will be able to do that. And that’s why it’s imperative that when Kent Hughes walks up to that podium, he doesn’t call out David Reinbacher’s name.
