No doubt. But his tenure as a Leafs has come to an end. All these injuries and suspensions has shine some light on other players. They have thrived and earned a spot

I look at someone like Minten. Definitely earned a spot
Steeves, you can tell he has some NHLer in him. He's only 24
Grebs, very raw but hasn't looked out of place

1.5 million dollar for a feel good guy is too much. He can be part of the team, if he plays every 3 or 4 games as a reliever
I would have to agree with Minten and Grebs. I would have Reaves in over Steves imo. But either way, I would try and keep him around somehow. Tre signed him first thing on free agency and Berube plays him almost every change he gets. So clearly they like/value him differently than some fans.

I'd love to see the team do with him what they did with Muzzin during his final year. Offer him a role as an assistant coach or in the organizations player development group.

He's seemingly well liked, so would keep him around the team but leaves the roster open for another, younger player

Muzzin was able to have the two contracts without the PA or league throwing a fit, don't see why they can't do it again

Muzzin was hurt and couldn’t play though, no?

I agree with you.
Reaves has 2 roles
1. Protection of other players
2. When the team seems to need spark, needs to grow a pair, step up and beat the tar out of someone.

No sure how #1 is going, when he is out nothing seems to intimidate the team
2, he has not done this and not sure he is capable anymore
