The biggest-name cut here comes from the Montreal Canadiens, who have sent 2023 fifth-overall pick Reinbacher back to his club in the Swiss league, EHC Kloten. It’s not exactly a surprising decision, as the Canadiens had before commented on Kloten being the best place for Reinbacher’s development in 2023-24, though there was belief by some that he may have received a nine-game trial in the NHL. He impressed with his poise and calmness in the preseason and training camp, and even managed to earn his first point in North America with an assist on a Josh Anderson goal.

But with the Canadiens’ blueline already well-stocked with talent meriting placement on the NHL roster, it seems that simply letting Reinbacher get back to Kloten where he’ll resume the minutes-eating all-situations role he played last year was the decision Montreal felt was most appropriate.

Beyond Reinbacher, Trudeau had also impressed at training camp, but fell victim to the same defensive roster crunch that likely cost Reinbacher a shot at a nine-game trial. Since he’s still exempt from waivers, the Canadiens have opted to let Trudeau get a head start in Laval, where he’ll potentially be the team’s number-one defenseman.

In years past, when the talent in the Canadiens’ pipeline of young blueliners was less abundant, a player like Trudeau may have been able to parlay his exceptional training camp and preseason performance into an immediate NHL opportunity.

A big wave of cuts hits the Canucks as they inch closer to the roster they’ll bring into their opening-night contest. Some big names were sent to Abbotsford, including 2019 10th overall pick Podkolzin. The hope was that Podkolzin would seize a regular NHL role and begin to deliver on the promise that got him drafted so high, but it wasn’t to be. He’ll instead start the year in the AHL, where he scored 18 points in 28 games last season.

Alongside Podkolzin is Hirose, who impressed in a short cameo with the Canucks late last season. The 24-year-old Minnesota State-Mankato product registered three assists and figures to be a top callup option should injuries strike the right side of Vancouver’s defense.

One other storyline to monitor regarding the Canucks is the fact that former Michigan Wolverine Cole McWard has survived this round of major cuts. He has spent training camp stapled alongside franchise defenseman Quinn Hughes, and the undrafted 22-year-old could now be under serious consideration to remain in that role for the start of the regular season.

This page may be updated throughout the day.
