NHL star Ryan Reaves roasts Paul Bissonnette from the bathtub in a viral Samsung ad

In an unexpected but hilarious moment, Ryan Reaves became the star of a viral video that blended product placement and a well-timed jab. The clip, released Sunday on Reaves’ Instagram, opens with the enforcer lounging in a bubble bath. A text from Paul Bissonnette arrives, poking fun at Reaves’ golf skills. What followed was a tech-assisted response that stole the spotlight.

Using Samsung’s new Galaxy 25 Ultra voice command feature, Reaves asked the AI to pull up Bissonnette’s career NHL stats. When it revealed just 7 goals and 22 points, Reaves instructed the phone to write a “scathing response.” Though lighthearted in delivery, the message struck with precision and wit, allowing fans to enjoy a rare moment of player banter executed with perfect comedic timing.
