While Reinhart, a healthy scratch for Saturday's loss to Boston, will make the current road trip with the team, he doesn't seem guaranteed to play every game, The Buffalo News reports.

Analysis:

"Not 100 percent next game, but he will play during this trip," coach Ted Nolan said of Reinhart's prospects in the near future. Reinhart has no points in five games and seems like a candidate to be sent back to juniors once he uses up his nine "free" NHL games. While his long-term future is bright, in single-season leagues he's pretty much worthless right now.
