Ryan Reaves was activated from the injury reserve today and Tyler Bertuzzi has been designated as a non roster player to spend time with his wife who is expecting. Something is going to happen soon either a trade or Reaves will be placed on waivers.

Cannot see BT able to trade Reaves unless he eats a bunch of Reaves salary. In hindsight this was BT’s worst move with Jones being his best and the rest fall in between. Nobody seems to be able to right the Titanic known as the Leafs. I say let him play a couple games and if he 💩’s the bed then put him on waivers.

I think that might be the best thing to bring this situation to some type of ending. |

Don't ever say I didn't warn y'all... these were my comments immediately after the Reaves signing was announced: Woof, this is a bad deal. For those of you who think this means we won't get pushed around anymore -- Reaves is basically our newest incarnation of the aging enforcer who will get about 5-6 minutes of ice time per night and will NOT deter folks like Tkachuk and Bennett from taking liberties with our players, simply because he won't be out there on the ice when they're doing their thing. Reaves is just the new version of Simmonds or Kyle Clifford, who was the new version of Matt Martin, who was the new version of Colton Orr, who was the new version of Brad May. If this is Treliving's "vision" of the new and improved Leafs, we're in for a painful new era. |

Reaves might get a shot tonight as Jarnkrok might have a broken hand courtesy of Liljegren in practice. I’m sure Reaves could find a dance partner on the other side tonight.

That would make the beer taste better, if that’s even possible!😁 I think there might be some animosity tonight after the Jets lost a game they should have got 2 easy points in the first. Don’t have a great feeling about this game but I didn’t on Wednesday either so who knows? For the most part the Leafs have been playing better defensively but the odd brain fart does them in often. Benoit and McCabe are supplying a good physical presence which I really enjoy. McCabe put Hyman on his ass hard in the Oiler game. Just wish they would try a slapper from the point and jump on a rebound or tip it instead of the picture perfect pass but I’ll take a W anyway they can get one. Just hope they show up to play. JT gets on the board tonight.

Your right Tman the leafs are playing better defensively and they need to because the the secondary scoring has completely dried up and loosing Calle Jarnkrok for who knows how long will not help. Regarding Reaves, I not sure why the leafs haven't just waved him unless they think they can somehow trade him (insert laughter here) at the deadline. I would much rather see someone brought up from the Marlies Alex Steeves, or Kieffer Bellows than the completely useless Reaves.

I don’t mind Reaves in the lineup if he does his job. First don’t let them score on your line. Second, take the body hard but do it smart. Don’t take a dumb penalty and don’t get caught out of position. Third, fight if you have to and kick their ass!
