2010-11: Reinhart had excellent offensive numbers in his second full season with the Kootenay Ice. He scored 34 goals along with 45 assists and a plus 30 rating while taking 41 PIMs in 71 WHL games. The talented playmaker was one of the offensive threats for this high powered team, second in goals behind Cody Eakin (WAS) and Matt Fraser (DAL), second in points behind Eakin and second in plus/minus ratio to Joe Antilla. Reinhart contributed to the Ice winning the Ed Chynoweth Cup and a chance at the Memorial Cup while finished third in scoring for the WHL playoffs. He scored 15 goals with 12 assists and a plus 13 rating in 19 playoff games. The skilled centerman scored important goals for his team in big games including a record tying five goals in a game against the Medicine Hat Tigers to advance to the WHL final. The 19-year-old scored a goal with five assists and a minus four rating in five Memorial Cup games. The Kootenay Ice lost in the semi-finals to the Mississauga St. Michael's Majors by a score of 3-1.
Talent Analysis
Reinhart can play the power play, kills penalties and is a solid two-way player. The playmaking centerman has good speed with a quick accurate release and sees the ice well but must add muscle mass and continue to mature into his body. The 19-year-old has the potential to be a star at the CHL level this upcoming season and a top six forward in the NHL.
Future
Reinhart will get a really good look in training camp but he will be returned to the WHL Kootenay Ice where he will be expected to play a bigger role on his team. He will be challenged to put up better numbers this season and try to offensively dominate the WHL while leading his team.
