The dogs days of summer look to be getting the best of on-ice rivals Ryan Kesler and Ryan Johansen.
The fun started on Sunday night after Kesler looked to challenge Johansen to a scrap ahead of the start of the season.
@RyanJohansen19 How’s summer training going? Want to meet me in the streets before we get going on the ice?

Johansen seemed to respond with a shot of his own.
I'll pay for your parking

The pair sparked quite the rivalry during the 2017 postseason, with Johansen questioning how Kesler's family could root for him.

Johansen and Kesler dropped the gloves after lining up against each other for the first time in 2018.
The first meeting of the 2018-19 campaign between the Ducks and Predators will take place on Nov. 8.
