It wasn't even going to be called a penalty. Ref only put his arm up after Englund threw him down and had to be talked into binning them both by the linesman rather than giving Ottawa their 5th straight PP.

The refs even huddled up after to determine if it was going to be a penalty at all. Going forward , all headshot should be an automatic 4.

Vegas is 2-7-1 in their last 10. Does anyone think its possible they are sandbagging it to avoid EDM in the first round? Wouldnt put it past that org

Ottawa actually leads the league in PP% time share. While LA is near the bottom of the league.

And we essentially saw that play out exactly as expected in that game.

That would be like sandbagging to avoid Toronto in the playoffs. No good team should fear Edmonton in the playoffs.

kings-esque faceplant for the devils there, couldn't score on the major pp, no physical response except a failed slewfoot attempt from haula, just shriveled up and died

Rempe should be out the rest of the season. Clear chicken wing to the jaw.
wouldn't be surprised if he gets 5 just because of who he is and the target he's put on himself

that was 100% intentional and he had no interest in answering for it

Sad thing is that it was a repeat from the last game. Rempe got a major for a less questionable hit in that game and the Devils couldn't do anything on the PP. After starting the season on the fire, the Devils PP has been awful. Definitely missing Dougie Hamilton right about now as teams seemingly figured out to pressure the Hughes brothers and they'll be a bit lackadaisical with the puck a la Kovalchuk. Team kept trotting out the same five guys and expecting it to get better. Now without Toffoli, it's five lefty shots which has its own inherent issues.

Rempe is a circus clown. He's "hyped" because of his size, that's it, fuggin' giraffe out there. He got shit pumped in that tilt with Olivier in Columbus.

He also cranked Lyubushkin with a suspect hit last week in Toronto.

Rags v Devils - April 3rd.

Rempe with a chickenshit sequence, not surprised. He won't be in the league long with his behavior, future CTE case for sure. Headshots have no business in this league. Imagine if he would've done that to anyone on our team, I'd be livid.

With the additions of Wennberg and Roslovic, it looks like J. Brodzinski is getting edged out on the Rags. He played so well, just to get be aside. I'm not sure how 'Lumbus gives up Roslovic for that little of a return, low risk high reward move. I bet Kaliyev and a pick would have done the trick.

Rempe gets 4 games. He will lose when he fights McD and then carry on doing what he does. The hit was very dirty and he was going to be late even if the contact was ‘clean’. We will hear about him not answering the bell and the ‘code’ but regardless it won’t stop him doing what he does. Only injury, suspension or his coach will change anything.
