We Now Know Exactly When David Reinbacher is Coming to Montreal

Now that his second campaign in Switzerland is over, the fifth overall pick in the 2023 draft will be able to join the Montreal Canadiens or the Laval Rocket to make his North American debut.

Moreover, it seems that the 19-year-old could be joining the organization very soon, as some observers have mentioned he could arrive as early as this week. There's no doubt that adding Reinbacher could be a genuinely interesting addition for Jean-François Houle's team, which is still trying to qualify for the playoffs in the American Hockey League.

In this regard, during his appearance on TVA Sports during the game between the Canadiens and the Flames last night, Renaud Lavoie unveiled significant information about David Reinbacher's arrival. Indeed, the journalist stated that only a few details were left to be sorted out, but that we could expect an official announcement this week.

Wow! What great news!

We can now affirm beyond any doubt that the Blue-White-Red's prospect will come as reinforcement in the next few days. This is certainly excellent news, both for the organization and for fans who are very eager to see him in action.

After a first season where the defenseman showcased his offensive talents with a haul of 22 points in 46 games, his contributions slightly decreased in 2023-2024. However, this is entirely normal when considering the difficulties encountered by the European team this year, which changed head coaches three times.

Nonetheless, David Reinbacher remains an immensely talented prospect with very promising potential. It's no wonder that several general managers wanted to select him in the last draft. He possesses the qualities necessary to become one of the best defensemen in the NHL, and we are looking forward to seeing him start his journey with the Montreal Canadiens.
