Tie Domi claps back at Georges Laraque over the Ryan Reaves comments
Georges Laraque wasted no time calling out Ryan Reaves over his actions on the weekend, and now a former Maple Leafs enforcer has fired back.
The Toronto Maple Leafs once again beat the Montreal Canadiens over the weekend, and unsurprisingly, there was plenty of drama coming out of another rivalry matchup. This time it surrounded Ryan Reaves, who dominated the game physically, including a big win over Michael Pezzetta as the two dropped the gloves.
After the game however, former enforcer Georges Laraque was clearly not impressed, as he sent out a post on social media criticizing Reaves, claiming he could only put on this type of performance in the absence of Arber Xhekaj.
When a fan called out his comments, Laraque doubled down, claiming that Xhekaj has nothing to prove, even against a guy like Reaves who is considered the top heavyweight in the NHL.
Ryan Reaves and no one on the team gain anything by responding to Laraque, so instead it was the father of a teammate that did so, with former Maple Leafs heavyweight Tie Domi hitting back and Laraque on social media.
George I love ya brotherhood always sticks together💪💪🏽❤️
Domi accurately points out that the fight was forced on Reaves after a questionable hit from Pezzetta, and if No. 75 can play like this when the playoffs roll around, the Leafs become that much more dangerous.
