Anaheim Ducks forward Trevor Zegras is an exciting player to watch for a multitude of reasons. He's flashy, he makes plays that you'd think can only be done in video games and he's a guy that a lot of youth hockey players look up to.

But there are some in the hockey world that aren't too fond of Zegras and the moves he tries to pull off, whether that be the 'Michigan' goal or his lacrosse-style pass he made to Sonny Milano a couple of seasons ago.

One of those players that isn't a fan of Trevor Zegras is former National Hockey League defenceman Brent Sopel, who was known during his career as a gritty, hard-nosed guy to play against.

On a recent edition of 'The Raw Knuckles Podcast', Sopel made his thoughts known about Trevor Zegras.


"You got what's his face in Anaheim (Zegras). I would take a two-hander to his teeth and love every second of it." Sopel said.

The clip of Sopel's comments were posted on an Instagram account by the name of '1929 Hockey'. Trevor Zegras saw the post and had a pretty funny reply.

"Always remember the five Ds of Dodgeball!!" Zegras said.
