David Reinbacher just made a major revelation about the CH's fifth pick
Anthony Martineau is doing a colossal job at the NHL Combine in Buffalo right now, who notably has the chance to interview the best prospects of the 2023 class. This morning, the journalist at TVA Sports met a player who seems to be greatly appreciated by the Canadiens organization.
Indeed, it is the Austrian defenseman David Reinbacher, who according to several experts could be targeted by the Canadiens in the next draft. However, the 18-year-old rear made a rather surprising statement during his interview with Anthony Martineau. Although he is seen as the best defenseman available this year, Reinbacher doesn't think he will be drafted in the top-10 on June 28th.
I just asked Reinbacher if he expected to be drafted in the top 10.
His response: "no".
Is the defender being too modest? Did his interviews with the general managers who will be drafting among the top ten selections go poorly?
Anthony Martineau did not seem particularly impressed by the young man during his interview with him, finding him not very talkative.
It is difficult to have a definitive answer at this stage, but let's just say that if his prediction comes true, many Canadiens fans will be thrilled. In a class with so many talented forwards, Kent Hughes absolutely must select a player with the potential to come and help the Canadiens' top-6.
According to you, will Kent Hughes opt for a forward on June 28th?
