I'd lean to Reinhart. There is no guarantee that Colborne, Knight, Jankowski or even Backlund will work out 100%. I think Monahan is truly the only ''guarantee'' we have at center ice now. If 3/4 of those guys falter, suddenly that leaves us with the Flames weak up the middle...again. The more centers you have, the better. Top tier defenders can be found in later rounds. High end centers are much more rare.
