Ryan Reaves is well known throughout the hockey world as someone you do not want to mess with. Corey Perry, on the other hand, is known as a pest, but not someone who will typically punch you in the face.
Reaves Caught By Cameraman
As the Leafs took on the Blackhawks tonight one cameraman got a beautiful shot of Ryan Reaves giving Corey Perry an earful. If you can read lips, and you don't have to be great at it, you'll understand what he was saying here.
In case you couldn't tell, Reaves was taunting Perry for never fighting and he used a lot of expletives in the process.
"Why do you think I give a f--k what you say? Huh? What, what are you gonna do about it?"
"Never back it up though. Never f--king back it up, never."
