Matthew Knies gets teased by Ryan Reaves about his game 5 OT goal

The Toronto Maple Leafs rookie Matthew Knies got teased by veteran Ryan Reaves about his overtime goal in game 5.

Last Tuesday, the Leafs beat the Bruins 2-1 to force a sixth game in the series, thanks to Matthew Knies' goal in overtime.

Watch the goal here:




The Maple Leafs went into game 6 with that momentum, giving them the edge in their massive 2-1 win of Thursday night.

Even if Toronto played another game since Knies' overtime goal, it didn't stop Ryan Reaves from playfully teasing Knies about his goal last night. In their post-game comments, Reaves and Knies gave reporters a fun moment to talk about. Reaves teased Knies in one of the funniest moments with the press we've seen in a long time from Toronto players.

Here's how it went down:



Even if this was a turning point in the series, and now the Leafs forced a seventh game against the Bruins, in Boston, it didn't stop Reaves from teasing the rookie. This is great for team morale and the players confidence going into game 7.

More to come.
