Matt Rempe; another controversial hit

[ExarKun80]

Rempe if fan of Pronger physics.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

20 games incoming.

Honestly damage isn’t bad, all things considered but he doesn’t know how to tuck his elbow.

Rangers should hire Cal Clutterbuck to teach this imbecile how to hit.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

He lost the fight, too.

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

Other than the charge, the elbow and targeting the head yep, completely clean.

The ole charging while gliding from the faceoff circle to the boards. Nice.

He lost the fight, too.

Nah he landed the only nuke of the fight. Surprised england didnt go down

Bleeding like a loose faucet.

It's such a weird thing to me when people argue tall guys aren't responsible for how they hit people. Some of those same people don't think tall guys can get hit in illegal ways.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

We should take him out back and beat the shit out of him.

He's been playing much cleaner and more effectively lately.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Keep the elbow in big man

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

As an islanders fan I do not want this. Please keep him on the Rangers for as long as possible

With that beauty tip in he scored against the Isles last game, sounds good to me.

You see englunds face? Rempe cut his lip, englund got his brain scrambled on that nuke rempe landed

If Rempe could land a nuke it would have dropped Englund.

Rempe got the worst of it, but that's usually what happens to him

Crazy to me that people think that sticking out your elbow and driving it into someone’s head isn’t a big deal

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Love that he got tuned up in the fight too.

 

[a mangy Meowth]

U should watch most guys hits. They hit the same. Its just when he sticks his arm out straight his arm is at a pint sized guys neck


Lol. Some of you really dont realize that not everyone wants to play with figure skaters

How embarrassing...

 

[Korpse]

Not a high impact hit but what’s the thought process here. Leading with his elbow out and landing square on the chin, he is never going to get it. Just get him out of the league.

 

[Beerz]

Not a good player... not a good fighter ..

What is Drury even doing?

Well, he dealt Trouba so he wanted to make sure the Rangers had someone the rest of the internet could talk about.

...hanging on for dear life, that's what Drury is doing...

 

[Machinehead]

This shit is so embarrassing lol. Have some shame

I've called him out on hits before but I thought 2 minutes and nothing more was the right call here

 

[SML2]

Yeah the league is just targeting Rempe for no reason, I heard he was going to break all of Gretzky's records so the league has to find reasons to suspend him so Matt "The Hockey God" Rempe doesn't take over the NHL.

This is the kind of clear, unbiased takes I come here for.

lmfao

6’9 Rempe barely touched a 5’8 guy with his glove (no elbow fyi). If you watched the replay youd see at no point does rempes hand ever even go above his own chest

 

[TheGreenTBer]

See, people keep saying this, and yet Chara wasn't constantly suspended. Tyler Myers isn't constantly suspended. Hal Gill wasn't constantly suspended. Hell, Derek Boogaard wasn't constantly suspended and he was a pure enforcer, himself. It's almost like being a giant person isn't an excuse for being a giant turd. Or is the excuse that he's just terrible at his job? Which is he, malicious or incompetent?

Well done.

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

...so can you explain why he took his right hand off of his stick and extended his right arm out??...

 

[Machinehead]

...so can you explain why he took his right hand off of his stick and extended his right arm out??...

Because he elbowed him. That's why he got a penalty for elbowing.
