Around the NHL 2024-25 regular season Part II - The holidays are upon us

[TheBeerNerd]

I’d share a particularly stupid and incomprehensible defense of Rempe, but I’m not supposed to bring politics into here. It’s one of the top posts on r/hockey right now, if you want to murder down brain cells.

I am not worried because if he does play against us the first game back he won’t be doing anything over and beyond stupid because that legit could cause him to never to play in this league again. I mean hes stupid, but not that stupid.

The problem isn’t him so much as the Rangers coaching and management telling him that this is what he needs to do in order to stay up in the NHL. He’s not doing anything outside of following orders. If it behooved the team to play skilled, he’d do that. But he isn’t.
