Sometime after the game Ryan Reaves brother took to twitter to announce his displeasure with the Sharks all-star. Reaves brother Jordan, let the world know what he thinks of the San Jose Sharks and Joe Thornton. Jordan called the Sharks clowns and to keep their energy for the playoffs.

Joe Thornton you’re a fucking pussy 😂😂😂 @SanJoseSharks y’all some fucking clowns 😂😂 just keep that energy all playoffs you goof😂😂😂 — x-Jordan Reaves (@JReaves77) March 31, 2019

Jordan didn’t stop with Thornton either. The brother also viewed his displeasure with Evander Kane. Labelling Kane a clown and needing a baby sitter on the ice. Jordan Reaves didn’t appear to be holding back at all.

You too @evanderkane_9 😂😂 open your mouth when the “babysitter” on the ice 😂 keep that same energy you clown 😂😂 — x-Jordan Reaves (@JReaves77) March 31, 2019

Jordan Reaves, who is a Saskatchewan Roughrider of the CFL didn’t stop at that. When confronted on twitter he lashed out at others. Reave’s called out some anonymous twitter users as well. Strike back at them and correcting their spelling.

The feud on Twitter hasn’t even been going for a few days and Jordan Reaves continues to troll the users. Labelling people for using fake accounts and calling them too scared to let people read their real names. This feud looks to be one for the books.

We will see how this all plays out as the Sharks and Golden Knights are sitting 2nd and 3rd in the Pacific division respectfully. Should the season end the same way as it sits now they will play each other in the first round. This should be good for some fodder in the social media department as Joe Thornton and Ryan Reaves haven’t said anything publicly about the comments.
