Cause you want your most physical player in the lineup during the most physical time of the year
He made 1 mistake in game 1 not covering for his D-man. Beyond that hes been solid for them. Played exactly how you need him to last night. Its a team sport though and 1 player doesn't make or break you.
If they have a goalie they probably win last night. Samsonov is reallll bad. - DirtyDan
And the leafs will make another first round exit. Good for them (frank) em I cant stand them or their fans
He isn't good at hockey lol played 49 games this season -13. Im not here to argue the physicality point, Reaves sucks and sabretoothless is just trolling everyone |

Moves:
Don't resign Bryson ($850k)
Greenway for futures ($3mm)
Package rights to Krebs ($900k) + either a prospect or draft pick for a mean 3rd pairing d - ideally late 20's with a history of fighting but known as a gem in the locker room (guy should cost in the $3-5mm range)
I would trade Joker for futures and sign a mean vet to league minimum
This opens the door to allow prospects to get playing time for injuries, to assess what's really down there, as well as balances the roster...while taking a big swing at the comfortable core players on the team now.
Then I would sign UPL on the condition he takes boxing lessons and I would make the entire team fight at the drop of the puck, every preseason game. - washedup20
Think there's room for a one year deal on D without trading Johnson. Go trade for Lauzon.

And thats not on their 4th line right winger
I dont care what he did during the regular season. They arent playing in the regular season. The playoffs is a completely different game and you want him out there for it. |

Obviously there will be injuries (Samuelsson) and I don't disagree we could us that type of d-man, but are you telling Johnson to take a back seat again (personally I couldnt care less how the player feels its there job to secure a spot) in his second year?

Actually no you probably don't want him out there. Plenty of grit on that team, if they had someone better he'd be sitting like he did much of the regular season
The leafs overpaid a 4th line fighting winger, are cap strapped and using ltir to be compliant and will be a 1st round exit |

Sure... paying a 4th liner 1.35 million is totally killing their cap. |

Reaves will go down as one of the best players in his role in the history of the game.
F the Laff's - Reaves is still valuable, hence all the top teams that continue to sign him - a stat you might not agree with or like, but a factual stat nonetheless.

Mitch Marner is making 10.9million and has the same stat line as Reaves but yes Reaves is the problem

What does the amount of years have to do with his contract effecting their ability to compete?
You realize he played 49 games or whatever cause the regular season is faster and they would want to be a faster team on some nights.... The playoffs is not the regular season. Space is limited, speed and skill get halted to some degree. Bigger stronger bullies are needed.
Leafs are up in the series had they spent time on acquiring a real goaltender. This is their only fault. |

They do continue to sign him, and none of them have won the cup with him on the roster |

Whether you like him or not he isn't good at hockey. Does he have a role yes, does it contribute to wins no
3 years for a 4th line fighter plug is ok but if we resign girgs everyone will flip out |

Buff36 thinks we need 20 greenways - Sabretooth9
I'll let him handle that himself, but no, no he doesn't. Crouse with 24 goals, 40+ pts, 175 hits ... HE would be a yes.
Greenway with Girgensons like production, ummm No, just no. |

Watched Marner carry the puck into zone, defender stepped up towards him and he just stopped, for split second it looked like he thought about skating it back out of zone. Then he just passed the puck to nobody in particular.

Are you implying teams didn't win the cup because Reaves was on the roster?
The Canes won't win the Cup with Burns on the team, he couldn't win in San Jose. To blame a role player for a teams failure is dumb.
