That's a pretty impressive message he's sending all the way from Las Vegas. Personally, the reason I thought Pens sent him away was because they had big players in bottom 6 who could look after their star players. If they have big body players like Kuhnhackl, Rowney, Sheahan, and now Oleksiak, they could afford to send Reaves away on a deal. It's funny u thot Reaves could look after Sid from Vegas tho.

Noble 6 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Off topic, but Reeves is probably the best tough guy in the game. I'd love to sign him to a cheap deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpn1 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I think putting EP between JV & JG would give him all the protection he would need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's pretty valuable believe it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to sign him to a cheap deal. Wouldn't mind Reaves as well, it looks like he can play for a tough guy. But I'm betting a team will overpay for him (we're looking at $2.5 mill per year) which is too much for a 4th liner playing 10 minutes a game.

There are probably a lot of teams that recognize the value he brings. I'd be fine with 2.5-2.75 million per if the contract is only 2-3 years long.

But Cherry did point out Crosby is being picked on more now too. For us though we are going to need to protect the kids, and I don't know that Archibald is enough.

Good idea but unfortunately Virtanen will be busy playing on my imaginary line with Lind and Gaudette lol It's cool though cause Dahlen will be playing with Gadj and EP! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray_Cathode Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 1 hour ago, Jimmy McGill said: why does a player need to be on the same line to provide protection? He doesn’t, he needs to be on the ice at the same time as the other team’s best player. You do not protect your best player by fighting his attacker, you fight it by attacking the other team’s best player - mutually assured destruction, the principle of deterrence.

He's young, mean, big, and doesn't loose fights. Also his pro points stats are trending up. I would try and trade some pieces we don't need for him or include Tanev in a bigger deal. Without a guy like him we can't hold other heavyweights accountable. Reaves would also work 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
