In the third period, after the whistle, Reaves appears to crosscheck Avalanche goaltender
Philipp Grubauer in the back of the head, before grabbing Graves and tackling him to the ground. While on the ground, it looks like Reaves put his knee on Graves' head and punching him at the same time. Reaves was given a match penalty for intent to injure. Any match penalty is subject to review from the NHL's Department of Player Safety, which means Reaves will have a hearing in the next couple of days.
