Is Ryan Reaves' Pre-game Lineup Reading the Rangers' Secret Weapon? (w/ VIDEO)

If you aren't a marquis point producer or a defensive stalwart in the NHL, it's important to carve out a role for yourself. Some guys kill penalties or block a lot of shots, some are super dependable in the face-off dot, but others need to get creative. Sometimes you need to throw big hits & intimidate the other team like Ryan Reaves.

But the cool thing about Ryan Reaves is in addition to throwing the body around he's also one of the league's best hype men. Ask any former teammate of his & they will tell you the guy is a riot. Always in the mix, he had an absolute show in the Rangers' locker room before puck drop:

Not sure what's better, the looks of sheer discomfort on his teammates' faces or his complete & utter disregard of them. However, he's clearly on to something, as he did the same thing before Game 5 too, which they also won. Safe to say Game 7's pregame starting lineup read is going to be electric.
