Major Karma Hits Ryan Reaves After Disrespecting Brad Marchand
The signing of Ryan Reaves by the Toronto Maple Leafs initially stirred excitement among fans and the organization.
Reaves, known as one of the toughest players in the NHL, symbolized a commitment to not being pushed around.
However, after the early-season bouts, Reaves' impact waned, leading to a surprising move by Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe.
During the game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Keefe benched Reaves, signaling a potential shift in his role.
The broadcast team just indicated that Ryan Reaves may be benched.. Ohhh boy, this signing may become an ugly one in a hurry. 2 more years after this one.
Reaves' 3-year contract, worth $1.35 million per year, now raises questions about the signing's long-term success.
The experiment with Reaves in Toronto appears to be on shaky ground unless his contributions align with the team's expectations.
