While Trevor Zegras' unique brand of hockey is entertaining, it's certainly not for everyone. Retired NHL defenseman Brent Sopel doesn't seem to be a fan of Zegras and made sure to let him know on Instagram.

The Anaheim Ducks Twitter account caught wind of Sopel's message to Zegras and had some fun with the situation.
It's clear that the Ducks thought Sopel threatening Zegras was pathetic and decided to have some fun with him. To be fair, threatening a young kid as a retired defenseman is kind of pathetic, and reflects poorly on Sopel.
At the end of the day, Zegras is bringing more fans to the sport with his bag of tricks.
