We need the Sharks to extend their first-round Stanley Cup playoff series with Vegas just so the Evander Kane-Ryan Reaves feud doesn't end.
Two days after Kane labeled Reaves "Muffin Man," the Golden Knights winger is embracing the nickname.

As NBC Sports California's Chelena Goldman wrote, the beef between Kane and Reaves goes way back. But it came to a head in Game 3 on Sunday. Things got testy late in the game, and the two players engaged in an epic fight.

The next day, Kane ripped into Reaves.
"For the so-called toughest guy in the league, I don't think he landed a punch," Kane said between Games 3 and 4. "At times, I thought I was fighting the Muffin Man. Didn't expect that, I expected a lot more of a battle. I was able to handle him. I think he lost a bit of his allure in terms of toughness."
