Maroon brushed it off, attributing Bissonnette's comments to his allegiance to the Leafs. Past encounters between Bissonnette and Reaves fuel the anticipation for potential clashes in the series.
"And that's sugar coating it! He's going to pump your eyes shut. He's going to give you so many rights, you'll be begging for a left."
"Well Biz is a Leafs fan, that's why. And the only reason Biz is saying that is because Ryan Reaves pumped his eyes shut, too."
