Glad for Tobias Rieder. Seems like a good guy who had a bad year on a struggling team. Based on his play, It’s hard to fathom he didn’t score a goal all season long. He’s been one of the more noticeable players every game he’s played and I think he’ll do just fine as the team’s 12th-13th forward.
If he can use his speed and kill penalties at a decent clip, I’d certainly be happy with him jumping into the line up for stretches at a time. The 4th line needs to be relatively productive, so hopefully he gets one early and play with some confidence the rest of the season.
