Reaves hits on Rossi, Gaudreau – Have your say!



Ryan Reaves took out both Marco Rossi and Frédérick Gaudreau within 10 seconds of each other, before fighting Marcus Foligno. Were the hits clean or questionable? Have your say!

  1. Clean as a whistle, maybe he didn’t have to lean into them as hard. It’s one thing to assert your physicality so the other team has to be aware of your presence but trying to hurt them is scummy. Reaves is letting this golem of Toronto thing go to his head a bit.

  2. The guy he fought on mini is a friend. He said the hit was hard but clean and that Revo is clean player. Ill take him at his word.

  3. Both times his elbow extended through the face, how is this clean? Oh wait, the sweater, right.

  4. They need to remove this stuff from the game. In other news, purses are on sale at The Bay.

  5. Both clean, and I hate the leafs.
    Marner and the Swede had better keep their heads up now that reaves has announced its open season on skilled players.

  6. You just know if a leaf player got hit like that their fans would want a suspension

  7. Been wanting Reaves here for a long time . I know some will say blindsided and that’s your opinion. Mine is that they were clean and just didn’t expect that coming . Well when you play against Reaves you better keep your head up ! That’s why I love the guy here . We’ve been needing this plus the protection of the rest of the team .

  8. The Rossi hit could have been interference (based off the Roy interference in the LA- CAR game) but otherwise clean, hard but clean, and the 2nd was from a bad angle but shoulder to shoulder, both kinda toe the line, as a slight miss-judgment and someone gets hurt, but contact was clean

  9. Clean hit on smaller guys. You play in the NHL. You’re gonna get hit. 10-15 years ago teams were still apprehensive about drafting smaller players. Now everyone wants hitting to stop. At this rate: It will be non-contact in a decade

  10. Had no problem with the first one, but the skates cant leave the ice before a hit.

    Second one is kind of blind side. I know Gaudreau should protect himself and all but he got blinsided. At least it wasn't head targeted.

    2 hard hits.

  11. Craig Simpson is an Idiot how can you be on the ice with the puck on your stick and expect to get hit. It’s not pond hockey
