He and Bobby Orr: best pp D of all time.  Reinhart or Bure, as first choices, for sure.  Just imagine Reinhart with Boeser?  lol. 

Reinhart was a legend.  57 points in 67 games as a D man in his last year in the NHL.

Back injuries ended his career....    With Reinhart on the Canucks right now we would be playoff team i would think.

Talk about hockey I.Q.: was there ever a smarter player than Reinhart?  His vision and passing were incredible.  And, as I say, the powerplay would immediately jump to a guaranteed goal a game.

Clearly, the most talented player ever to play for this team... Bure

 

Other notables, Messier (not Canuck Messier but Oiler/Ranger Messier), Mogilny, Sundin (Toronto Sundin), Bertuzzi, and of course a young Ryan Miller or Luongo

Paul Reinhart

 

Most skilled D man to ever play on the Canucks...   Drafted 12th overall.....

Rick Lanz takes that distinction. Drafted 7th overall. Not that draft placement matters, but by far the most underrated offensive D this team has ever had. If he had more luck and opportunity, he could've been in the HHOF.

Ollie Joulevi reminds me of Lumme. The skating style and the calmness with the puck. 

You mean heads up and gliding at 3/4 speed with his legs like riding a horse ...and those eyes open as wide as dinner plates to make his no look tape to tape passes to either cheating winger.  I also liked his flip up the ice out of trouble move, over half the players and into safety.   Good player.
