Sam Reinhart scored one goal and two assists on six shots in 18:04 in the Panthers' 5-3 win over the Blackhawks on Wednesday, November 4. He posted a plus-3 rating and added one blocked shot.

The line looks strong, but Reinhart already averages 0.99 points per game in his recent sample. This performance aligns with his established production, making it a typical night rather than a reason to reassess his roster status.

Sam Reinhart

Reinhart's three-point outing matches his recent averages of 0.51 goals and 0.48 assists per game. His six shots exceeded his 2.6 per game average, and his 18:04 of ice time came in below his usual 21:12 a night. He plays on the top power-play unit, averaging 4:20 of power-play time per game, the most among all Panthers skaters. No power-play points were reported from Wednesday's game.

His underlying play grades 47 out of 100 among forwards in shots, scoring chances and ice time, a measure of how sustainable his scoring rate projects to be. The Panthers have four games left this week, playing Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday. Hold Reinhart where he is rostered, as his value was already reflected in his recent numbers before this game.

What to do

• Hold Reinhart in all formats, as his three-point night represents his usual production level.

• Keep him in lineups for the Panthers' remaining four games this week.

• Do not chase this performance by adding him if he was dropped, as his value has not changed.
