Leon Draisaitl disrespects NY Rangers captain - Already proving trading Ryan Reaves was BIG mistake
Let's go back 2 seasons, the New York Rangers were playing the Washington Capitals, and the Capitals tough guy Tom Wilson absolutely rag-dolled the New York Rangers Artemi Panarin who tried to jump Wilson from behind:

The Rangers had no toughness in the lineup and could do nothing against Wilson. The next time they played it was fight after fight after fight, starting right at the start of puck drop:

The Rangers wanted to prove they could defend themselves, but they still lost almost every fight. So in the offseason they wanted to bring in some toughness to protect their star players, so they trade with the Vegas Golden Knights to bring in the heavyweight champ Ryan Reaves.
Well, last week they traded Reaves to Minnesota, leaving themselves vulnerable again.
Leon Draisaitl is a superstar in the league who demands respect, but knowing that the Rangers have no one who will come to their defence, make a disrespectful move towards the Rangers captain Jacob Trouba:
