I'll give you this.... I do believe Reaves is a guy that other players love on their team and their bench. However, I will never ever eeeevvvvvvveeeerrrr believe that translates into more than the smallest actual tangible benefit on ice other than fights and hit counts. Personally I'm still ambivalent to the trade. We gave up next to nothing for him and I don't think he hurts the team with his limited time on the ice... right now. When Duhaime and Hartman are back and, assuming, Guerin/Evason continues to play Reaves there will be some tough choices to be made. I'd rather see Dewar, Shaw, and Walker playing over Reaves and I'm assuming one of (if not two) won't be.
