Not only was the Saturday night clash between the Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers an original six matchup with two of the Eastern Conference's best teams, but it saw two of the NHL's heavyweights go toe-to-toe.

Reaves and Rempe drop the gloves

After much anticipation, Ryan Reaves and Matt Rempe dropped the gloves, and the fight certainly brought the crowd to life and lived up to expectations.
Ryan Reaves is a giant human being. Huge. It really hits you when you're up close. And Matt Rempe is so friggin big he makes him look like the fighting Irish logo
The fight was one full of anticipation, and while it may not have been Rempe's best bout in the NHL, he's certainly established himself as a force to be reckoned with.

Max Domi reacts to the heavyweight bout

After the game, veteran forward Max Domi shared his thoughts on the highly anticipated showdown, and it's safe to say that the players were just as excited for this as the fans.
"The crowd was extra amped up tonight for a huge event like that & both of them, obviously they left it all out there, & respect to that kid. He's a tough dude & Reavo's the toughest guy in the league.

Hardest job in the game. There's nothing close to it. To sleep & to prepare for a game is one thing, but knowing you have to put yourself at at risk, anything can happen in a situation like that. It's the most selfless job in sports." - Domi on the job Ryan Reaves does in Toronto

Unsurprisingly, Domi supported his teammate Reaves, saying he is one of the toughest players in the league while giving all the respect to Rempe that's reignited the physical style of hockey in the league.
