That would have been horrible. Florida is a team on the up with an enviable roster. Their 1C is MVP tier. Their 1D is Norris tier. And they have two goalies who could ostensibly throw up a Vezina caliber season next year. Adding a piece like reinhart completes their forward roster wonderfully;
Verhaeghe - Barkov - Reinhart
Huberdeau - Bennett - Tippett
Denisenko Lindell - Duclair
Heponiemi - Aciarri - Hornqvuist
Then if as expected they add Suter:
Suter - Eblad
Forsling - Weegar
Nutivaara - Gudas/Stralman/Montour?
Knight
Bobrovsky
they've pretty much got their whole roster complete and their draft pick should be somewhere from 25 to 32nd overall. At most they need to shore up the 4C position by playoff time and add a depth LD.
Calgary doesn't even have a bonafide 1C or 1D and our 1G played like a tandem goalie last year. Reinhart doesn't solve our problems. So giving up a potential 1G in Wolf and a 1st (which could hypothetically be Shane Wright) would be a disaster.
