Majic tricks are fun. Well, at least they are fun when you’re a little kid. The majic trick of making peoples money disappear in 2025 though has taken on a whole new level. When we talk about moving up in hockey it usually isnt about moving up your bank balance based on someone else’s efforts.
Chris and Rhea Reaves were spotted outside of the Majic Castle in Los Angeles recently with majic wands, capes and top hats. Some observers stated their accountant was driving the car that brouoght them there. The car? One person close to the story said it was a “gift” from the players parents.
Seriously though, over night, the Bold City Battalion disappeared from the USPHL Premier schedule for the Florida Division.
How did that happen you may ask? Well, the league has had enough of the shell game being played by Chris and Rhea Reaves. So much so that multiple sources are reporting that the Reaves may be out of the NCDC with the two teams they have been responsible for as well.
The Reaves are responsible for eleven Tier 3 and AAA team failures this season! They are also responsible for one NCDC team failure, and the disaster that they created in Casper with the NCDC Warbirds. A sale is now pending of the Casper Warbirds, though the league has yet to approve it.
Now with multiple reports from Woodstock New Brunswick that bills are not being paid by the team, the league is closely monitoring that situation.
How does this happen? It happens when prior league management was told Reaves was worth tens of millions and was a large real estate developer. This ties in with Reaves claim that he was going to build a new ice arena in Casper Wyoming.
With dozens of people filing police reports in multiple States alleging fraud and/or theft, wire fraud and other computer related crimes, things are not looking good for Chris and Rhea Reaves.
TJHN became suspicious of Reaves a few months ago, when his Outrival Sports website was claiming he and they had relationships with the NHL, USHL and others. We made the USPHL aware of these claims, and suddenly they disappeared from the website in question.
Who is Chris Reaves and how did he majically pop up in hockey in 2023? No one has been able to answer those questions? Who is responsible for bringing Reaves into the USPHL family? Thats a question a lot of people want answered, and the authorities will likely be asking as well.
Did Reaves dramatically overstate his wealth in order to deceive the USPHL into allowing him such access to operate? One has to believe that the league, based on the patterns established by Reaves could also be making a complaint with authorities.
