Cole Reinhardt

Reinhardt was a solid presence for AHL Belleville during the 2024-25 regular season, providing 14 goals, 32 points and 40 PIM across 45 outings. He also logged 17 regular-season appearances with Ottawa, but his offense didn’t translate to the top level, resulting in him recording a goal, two points, 15 PIM and 37 hits. To be fair to the 25-year-old, he averaged just 8:12 of ice time in Ottawa, so he wasn’t in a position to showcase his skills with the puck. However, he inked a two-year deal with the Golden Knights over the summer, which means the best he could realistically hope for at the NHL level is another fourth-line assignment. Reinhardt will probably fall short of even that, instead starting 2025-26 in the minors, but he might see time with Vegas in the event of injuries to more established forwards. Read Past Outlooks
