The Leafs’ relationship with the Chicago Steel has been well documented and incoming Senior Director of Minor League Operations Ryan Hardy could potentially influence the selection of Bar if he is still available when the Leafs’ second round pick rolls around. He still has some physical maturing to do but Reynolds possesses the high-end instincts and play-driving traits that this Leafs management group values so highly. While he has good speed, he isn’t the fastest player in the draft, but he does a good job of adjusting speeds to manipulate space and passing lanes off the rush. He doesn’t have an outstanding shot but he has a knack for getting open in scoring areas at just the right time – a skill that should translate to the next level. Reynolds has really strong habits all over the ice and can turn an impressive defensive read into a rush chance the other way for his team in short order. He is more proactive than he is reactive with great off-puck movement to support play in all three zones and he has the vision to complete area passes, creating more time and space for his teammates to make a play when he finds them. He fits the mold of a play-driving center with his ability to process the game at a high rate and make intelligent reads under pressure. Reynolds is a player that Leafs management would have gained familiarity with while monitoring the progress of his Sea Dogs teammate and 2020 Leafs fourth rounder William Villeneuve.
