What most people did not see is two minutes before this the refs tellling reaves if he does this again he going to the box. He did it again and he went to the box. he was warned and on top of that Middleton sucker punched the 19 year old Johnston and got nothing. someone was going to the box and it just ended up being reaves
Horrible call in the playoffs, but it is still obvious what happened, reaves was the last man in to the scrum so he got penalized which is a very common call in hockey lol. This shouldn't be called in the playoffs though when hockey is at its roughest and chippiest with scrums happening every whistle. Im not sure what the standard is during these playoffs and I don't think the refs do either lol.
No one else picking up on the fact he called it verbal violence? I think we need asylums back filled with bubble wrap, if words are violent you need a real safe place to stay.

Penalty should have been on Middleton. Wild prefer the trade off though. Reaves doesn't kill penalties.
I’d be pissed too. He only wrapped a guy up which is extremely common in the NHL. Shit call by shit refs
Garbage call
Lol well refs are starting to get better i guess…..
Right call just wrong guy

Right penalty, wrong guy.
Too many missed calls and too many bad calls this series!! Haven't seen officiating this poor in a long time.

Reeves gave him a hug 🤔🤔🤣
Reeves is just a big dumb goon. Dude can only skate a straight line into a wall.
Such a bullcrap call. Just average post-whistle shenanigans. I love how "big bad" Jamie Benn didn't defend himself against a real tough guy.
@jens95 so what did he say?
Dwyer has always hater Minnesota. We’re used to it.
Technically the ref is correct in terms of roughing call, only thing wrong was the player but he did get the call right.
Reeves' reputation works for him, although he has nothing to do with it.
Verbal violence? Homer for sure…
Middleton get 2 shots in on Johnston and they take reaves lol
I like Reaves!
Reaves did nothing but hug him, give me a break
Refs have been shit all series to both teams. Dont call the cheap shots but call these week roughings…this is the playoffs
I love the fear in Jamie Benns eyes after the scrum when he looks at reaves.
A player arguing a penalty deserves a video? lol.
Verbal violence? What the fuck are you?
Only in our dreams will the nhl have fair and consistent refereeing
Verbal violence is non existent. That’s not a thing.
That was not a ref that was an idiot
Reaves is a useless POS diversity hire slow stupid and has zero hockey skill . Black privilege at work for him.
…I mean that ref is pretty retarded/
Pathetic he gets the only two
Benn literally causes a scrum every whistle he’s on the ice for.
Reaves is nothing but a THUG!!!!
Reaves is a goon. Always has been.
Terrible call. Refs are giving way to many misconducts too
What a joke of a call! The game is to big for the Referees now, they can’t decipher basic calls properly
Starts announcers are so soft
no way gordie dwyer made an awful call!!
So Middleton actually did more and didn’t get one
Crap video
NHL Refs are racist only punish the black guy!
