I've seen Rhino a ton, both as an Av and while on the Flames. I have to agree with Smokey - the 18 is way to much to give up for him. He relies alot on his speed to get his offense going, and while he is decent defensively, he gets hurt a terrible amount of times. Last year was not an anamoly for him in Calgary, it was more of the same on a higher level. We can do better, although if the price is right, Reinprecht would be a good addition. The problem is, the Flames need centers as badly as we do, and Rhino's value is somewhere between a 2nd and a 3rd round pick.
