The All-Star Weekend is a great opportunity for players across the NHL to put rivalries aside and compete together.

But once the weekend is over, things go back to normal and it's business as usual in the NHL.

Some players learned that the hard way.

Feud Emerges On Instagram Between Matthews and Draisaitl



Last night, Auston Matthews posted a picture on Instagram, thanking Toronto after receiving the MVP award and winning the game.

Check it out:


Edmonton Oilers star Leon Draisaitl commented his post and Matthews replied coldly.

Read their discussion here:

Draisaitl: "Keep ur head up"

Matthews: "Get away from me"


As you can see, the Maple Leafs star didn't shy away from telling him to leave him alone.

The next game between the Oilers and the Maple Leafs is set for March 23rd.
We can't wait to see how this will transpire on the ice or if more stories between them will emerge on social media!

Updates will follow.
