Reinhart has been a RW for 90% of his career. He only played centre for a portion of this past season due to injuries and trades.

? - Barkov - Reinhart
Hubderdeau - Bennett - ?

With the success Bennett had in that role, I don't see them disrupting that - especially with Reinhart having a long history of being a productive/strong RW'er.
