In an interview a few days prior, Reeves didn't sugarcoat the fact that he's not a Corey Perry fan, saying, «I never really liked him to be honest. We always seem to run into each other when we play each other. But yeah, not a lot of love for that guy.» Reeves also claimed that Perry «kind of acts tough; he's not tough.»
These comments sparked some controversy which led Avery to somewhat slam Reaves on his podcast, calling him a «clock killer» and claiming everyone in Toronto is giving him «back pats.»
Regardless of your personal opinions about Ryan Reaves, you can't deny that he's been extremely entertaining since the start of the season less than two weeks ago and I don't see his name disappearing from headlines any time soon.
