Reinhart slightly over Ortio. I think Reinhart has a good chance of being a 3rd liber for the next 10 years or so for the Flames and for me that just beats out the higher ceiling of Ortio.
I think after these two it gets tough as there are no more guys I see as likely contributors to the Flames long term. There is some potential but guys would have to show a lot of improvement/continued growth.
I don't get the Seiloff playing this year comments. He had an okay half of an OHL season, missed a year completely, is a slow, mediocre skater, offers zero offense, isn't great with the puck and isn't such a great defensive guy to be used in a shut down role. I just don't see where he fits in the line up or why he jumps ahead of the 6 vets we have plus Wotherspoon, Billins, Cundari.
Maybe he gets time at the end of the year when everyone young seems to get a call up but I don't see him on the Flames in anything other than a end of the year let's have a look/reward stint for 3-5 games.
