Reaves and Thornton fined
NHL Player Safety: Vegas Golden Knights forward Ryan Reaves and San Jose Sharks forward Joe Thornton have been fined $2,500 each for high-sticking each other.
Jesse Granger of The Athletic: Reaves after the game on Thornton.
“Yeah, I mean what’s he going to do? Fight me? He speared me in the eye a little bit, with little baby jabs,” Reaves said with a chuckle. He clearly enjoys that style of game. “I love that stuff. It’s my favorite. I’m always smiling, right?”
I found it. Here is the high-stick that Reaves was just fined $2,500 for by the NHL. #VegasBorn @TheAthleticNHL @TheAthleticLV pic.twitter.com/xauSo0oDGY
