Why though? I am fine with trading Gaudreau, but Reinhart is the wrong target. Reinhart is basically the bargain bin version of Monahan. Plays well when he has a player to drive offense playing with him, but won't create offense on his own. Ok defensively, not physical, average at best skater. All in all Reinhart is an ok support player, but not a player you build around.
If you a trading Gaudreau at least one of the pieces should end up being a core player you build around. The best bet for that is to get a young forward that can grow into a top 6 role. There is risk involved for sure, but in order to build a winning team sometimes you need to gamble on players
