Griffin Reinhart is continuing his downward trend.

Following his "very poor camp" in the eyes of Sportsnet's Mark Spector, Reinhart has been sent to Bakersfield to start the season in the American Hockey League.

Reinhart, acquired for first- and second round picks at the Connor McDavid draft, made the Oilers out of camp last season, but was soon demoted.

He dressed in a total of 29 games, collecting an assist and 20 penalty minutes, while throwing 62 hits.
