NHL enforcer, and heavyweight Ryan Reaves, has once again reignited the long-term feud with gritty winger, Evander Kane, who recently joined the Vancouver Canucks.
Evander Kane and Ryan Reaves' feud has been well-documented throughout its history in the NHL. The two have engaged in not only trash-talking each other in the media but also beating each other senseless on the ice.
Now, as both players are in the Western Conference, Reaves joined the San Jose Sharks in exchange for Henry Thrun, while Kane signed with the Canucks, we should prepare for the worst.
The feud took to a new home, on the Cam & Strick Podcast, as Ryan Reaves isn't about to let this die:
"It's real... I don't think that's ever something that's going to change. I think it started early in our careers when, you know, he just always said he'd beat me up. But then we'd never fight unless there was a ref right there, and then he'd, you know, try and throw a punch. Then he was telling guys that he asked me to fight and I turned him down, and I was like, 'listen man, I don't think anybody's believing that when I've been chasing you around for six years and you won't fight me.'"
Kane would later chirp Reaves with Sharks reporter Sheng Peng. His comment was ruthless, and he felt that Reaves isn't so much a heavyweight or a contender but a pretender.
"He thinks it's the WWE. Probably going to end up there pretty soon.
The dialogue is already heated, and the puck hasn't even dropped yet. It seems as if we should expect these two to clash in the twilight of their careers. Reaves could end up retiring from the NHL sooner than Kane, but the excitement as the two battle it out again will be palpable throughout the NHL fandom.
What kind of legacy will Reaves leave?
