David Reinbacher ends his comeback night at minus-2

Tonight, the Rocket hosted the Rochester Americans.

It was Laval’s chance to avenge last Friday’s 4-0 loss in Rochester.

It was also the return to action of David Reinbacher, who hadn’t played a single regular-season game yet this year due to a fractured hand.

For the occasion, he played on the first pair of defenders with Adam Engström.

It appeared that the young back was still a little rusty as he finished the game with a minus-2 record, just like his partner on the blue line.

Reinbacher had had a fairly quiet game for the first 49 minutes of the match (which is usually a good sign for a defenseman), but he was on the ice for the Americans’ first goal at 9:38 minutes into the third period to tie the score 1-1 when the two clubs were playing 4-on-4.

Then, the visitors scored the winning goal with less than four minutes left in the game to run away with the 2-1 victory.
