Fans Furious With Ryan Reaves' Recent On-Ice Actions Towards Winnipeg's Star Player

Ryan Reaves has been the topic of a lot of speculation in the Leafs dressing room as of late. His comments regarding his health got a lot of attention, considering he was on the IR when he said he was feeling fine to play. He was activated not long after those comments and made a big splash in his return to the lineup.

Reaves was able to get a tip-in goal in the final minute of the first period, a big goal to tie the game before the first ended.

However, this wasn't the only thing that fans were talking about regarding Reaves. In fact, it was what happened at the end of the game that caught the attention of fans around the league.

In the final minute of the game, Ryan Reaves got tangled up with Winnipeg Jets' star Nikolaj Ehlers. The two exchanged some words after Ehlers gave Reaves a few crosschecks, but ultimately nothing happened. Leaf fans were happy to see their enforcer taking some names on the ice, however, other fans were upset. Take a look.

To be fair, there is a pile of evidence showing other tough guys taking advantage of the Leafs' star players. In this instance, Reaves did nothing but show everyone watching that Ehlers didn't want to fight the enforcer.

Do you think Reaves crossed the line?
