Injury Report: Ryan Reaves

[rutz]

Reaves hopefully on LTIR and off to Robidas Island for next 3 years of his contract. Leafs need 4th liners who have speed on the forecheck, can hit and kill penalties.Hopefully have at least 1 on this line not afraid to drop the gloves to stickup for teammates would be a bonus.

Reaves gets a lot of hate man and I dont like that. Don't blame the player, blame the GM for signing him.

We all know what type of player Reaves was. Expecting him to come to score goals and assists, we are only disappointing ourselves.

He's a good guy and the players love him. Just wish we didn't give that big of a contract but I still dont mind him on the team I dont care what anyone says.

With all that being said, if we can find a proper playoff upgrade, go for it

Get well soon Reavo

Seriously the comments in this thread are petty And show an overall lack of class.

sure reaves is overpaid, but only by a couple hundred thousand. His cap hit is not really all that significant especially given the cap space we have now.

im glad the injury isnt as bad as initially feared. Hope to see him back on the ice soon.

What does Reaves offer?

Can’t skate
Can’t shoot
Can’t pass
Can’t receive a pass
Has no agility
Isn’t defensively responsible
Cant protect players as he is only good for 5 mins of ice time and yapping from bench isn’t intimidating anyone

Lack of class?

It’s just the truth

He received a retirement check

 

[ponder]

Only saw the last half of the third, which by the way was frigging awesome.

What happened to Reaves?

He skated himself awkwardly face first into the boards, appeared to injure his left knee or hip or something like that. Then he needed help leaving the ice, but the Leafs medical staff were like “nah we’re good”, and he fell down the stairs.

Looks like Friedman has to eat it, Reaves was placed on LTIR.

Would the island's income as a tourist attraction count against the cap or be subject to revenue sharing?

It goes into the salary of the players that move there permanently.
