Hatred for Kings fuels Ryan Reaves in Golden Knights’ 2-0 win

Golden Knights forward Ryan Reaves never has been shy about expressing his distaste for the Kings.

He took out his frustration through more than just his physical play, scoring the first goal of the Knights’ 2-0 preseason win over Los Angeles on Friday night at T-Mobile Arena.

“I get up for the game anytime we play them,” Reaves said of competing against a Kings squad that left most of its stars home. “It goes back years for me, and the hatred is never going to leave.”

It was the first action of the preseason for Reaves, who suffered a facial laceration early in training camp.
