Ryan Reaves threatens Arber Xhekaj, looking for revenge fight!
The Maple Leafs’ tough guy sent the Habs’ enforcer a very clear message.

In his first game as a Toronto Maple Leaf on Wednesday, veteran forward Ryan Reaves dropped the gloves against Montreal Canadiens’ Arber Xhekaj in a heavyweight tilt. Both threw good punches, but Xhekaj did manage to get Reaves off his feet and dropped him on the empty net that had flipped over during their altercation.
Reaves spoke about the fight on Friday after practice and was unhappy about how it unfolded, prompting him to threaten Xhekaj for the next game between the Maple Leafs and Canadiens.
“I don’t like getting jumped. I don’t know if I’ve really jumped anybody. If you want to fight just ask me. I’m always around. You know where to find me.”
He added: “We play them two more times”
Fans will have to wait until March 24th before seeing the Maple Leafs and the Habs face off again, but we don’t expect either Reaves nor Xhekaj will forget about this statement.
