2016-04-11 analysis Reinhart was acquired from the Islanders in a draft day trade but hardly distinguished himself this season with one assist in 29 games. There is still hope that the former first-round pick will become a top pair defender but if he does develop it looks like it will be later, not sooner. Reinhart was acquired from the Islanders in a draft-day trade but hardly distinguished himself this season with one assist in 29 games. There's still hope that the former first-round pick will become a top-pair defender, but at this point he's starting to look like a late bloomer.

2016-03-07 analysis Reinhart was called up in response to Brandon Davidson's lower-body injury sustained Sunday. If Davidson gets shut down for awhile, Reinhart is in a good position to pickup some additional playing time in Edmonton. The 24-year-old defenseman has notched 11 points in 51 contests with the Oilers this season.
2016-03-07 update Reinhart was recalled from AHL Bakersfield by the Oilers on Monday.
2016-02-09 analysis Reinhart had been recalled ahead of the All-Star break, but he only dressed in two of the club's four games during the week. The 22-year-old will head back to the AHL, where he's tallied six points and a plus-1 rating in 17 games.
2016-02-09 update Reinhart was reassigned to AHL Bakersfield on Tuesday, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.

2016-02-01 analysis Reinhart and forward Zack Kassian were both sent to the AHL Bakersfield affiliate just before the All-Star break to get in some extra work, but the two were both recalled by the parent club Monday. The addition of Reinhart gives the Oilers seven defensemen, and he remains a suspect lineup option on a nightly basis.

2016-01-24 analysis Reinhart's first recall since November was short-lived, though he recorded an assist in the lone game that he played in. It's highly probable that Reinhart is recalled after the All-Star break concludes, as the Oilers likely sent Reinhart down to get some more game time during the break.

2015-11-28 analysis Justin Schultz (back) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, so the Oilers are no longer in need of Reinhart's services as a depth defenseman. The 21-year-old blueliner drew into Edmonton's lineup on 12 occasions during his stay with the big club, registering 10 shots on goal and 17 blocked shots in those contests.
2015-11-28 update Reinhart was reassigned to AHL Bakersfield on Saturday.
2015-11-02 analysis Reinhart has been out since Oct. 18 after suffering an undisclosed injury, but he'll now return to the club. The 21-year-old was a healthy scratch on two occasions already this season, but figures to slot back into the lineup now that he's healthy.

2015-10-31 analysis Reinhart is eligible to return from injured reserve whenever he's healthy, but it appears as though the undisclosed injury he's been dealing with is still nagging the 21-year-old blueliner enough to hold him out of Saturday's tilt against Calgary.

2015-10-27 analysis Reinhart has been dealing with an undisclosed injury since late September, but was only put on the IR after missing the last three contests. The defenseman has played in just four of nine possible games this season and will now likely miss the next three matches as he heals. Fellow defenseman Brandon Davidson and Andrew Ference will have opportunities to pick up Reinhart's minutes on the blue line. Coach Todd McLellan indicated that the defenseman is nearing a return, as he was able to return to practice Sunday, but he'll miss at least one more contest. His next chance to draw back into the lineup will come Thursday against the Canadiens.
