San Jose acquired some grit and toughness late Thursday night when they announced they had traded 24-year-old defenseman Henry Thrun to Toronto for forward Ryan Reaves. Reaves is a 38-year-old enforcer entering his 16th NHL season and should find a spot in San Jose's bottom-six. He struggled to stick with Toronto last season, collecting just two assists and 28 PIMs in 35 games played.
Reaves has only played three games for the Maple Leafs since the beginning of February and was placed on waivers on Thursday. The 38-year-old hard-hitting forward is averaging 7:48 time-on-ice, recording two points (0G / 2A) and 103 hits in 35 games this season.
