It’s not that hard to assess the position of the guy you are about to hit and let up
Reaves may get along with Scott Oake on HNIC but on the ice he is a piece of #### and the league doesn’t need what he brings
Edmonton still sucks

I’ve always believed in hitting to separate the player from the puck, not head from body, but size, speed and coaches expectations make that quite difficult.
However in the close to 50 years of watching the game, I have been guilty of enjoying a huge hit or fight many times. It’s primal.
In reality, it only takes a few games of watching your 17 year old son playing Jr, to re-think how you feel about huge hits and fighting.
Since my initial port, and seeing a reel from PK Subban, I watched it a few more times, on something bigger than my phone. Great take by PK, and I agree, Reeves needs to ‘do better’.
