With physical threats like Nick Cousins on the other side, this one would be another thrilling series, but if Reaves can be at his devastating best, there's no doubting that Toronto could have the edge in a big way. Whether they meet in round one or two, this is the matchup that many NHL fans want to see, and with Reaves motivated ahead of the playoffs, look for Tuesday nights game to be just as intense as you'd expect for post-season hockey.
