The Florida Panthers and Toronto Maple Leafs appear on a collision course for a Stanley Cup Playoff matchup, and now Ryan Reaves has sent a major message.

On Tuesday night, Atlantic Division rivals clash for game No. 82 of the season between Toronto and Florida, and if certain results go a particular way, it could lead to a first-round matchup between the two. If that's the case, given how physical and personal things have got between the teams, it would be the most anticipated matchup in round one of the playoffs, and with a preview on Tuesday, this could be fun.

Unsurprisingly, the physicality will play a huge role in the playoffs, and that is what Ryan Reaves addressed ahead of their Tuesday night regular season finale.

"You gotta set the tone for that series."

Ryan Reaves and the Maple Leafs, though shorthanded up front, are looking to make a statement against the Panthers in a likely Round 1 preview on Tuesday.

With the playoffs just days away, it appears everyone is starting to lock in, and if Reaves can continue to play at his devastating best, it's safe to say that whoever this team is matched up against will not have a good time in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
