Player Discussion Matt Rempe - See Mod Note Post 769

[BleedBlueNYR]

4 games is absolutely ridiculous. NHL just pandered to the mob of Rangers haters who have been crying since he came up.

 

[BlueShirtGal]

Sounds like the NHL is trying to make an example/point. 2 maybe but 4? GTFOH.

 

[gabevh3]

Mcavoy got 4 earlier in the year for a bad hit so this tracks.

Checking this out ,they're saying he got off easy plus he's a repeat offender so no

Seriously. DO NOT go to the main forum. AT ALL. Just stay out of that thread. There are some bullshit infractions being handed out to members of our forum who venture into the Matt Rempe thread.

 

[zlev]

idk i kinda get it. he probably should've already been suspended for the Lyabushkin hit but couldn't because no penalty was called. he needs this wake up call.

 

[Bondra slapshot]

I love Rempe. He's basically the 'good faith' troll of the league that exposes hypocrisy. Public enemy number one. This whole Rempe saga and how the league handled his legislation gives me such professional wrestling vibes. Rempe should just keep smiling at everyone like he's been doing. The guy's a natural troll with a perfect professional wrestling persona.

It's good that he got 4.

What should matter to us is that he figures out how to stay on the ice and contribute instead of constantly being sent to the locker room.

4 sends that message clearly enough that the coaching staff will be forced to coach him better. If he learns from it, we have a huge asset going forward.

If he doesn't learn after this, he is a total moron who is doomed to becoming an answer to a trivia question,

 

[DekeR]

I love the kid, however I thought 2 games would have been sufficient. What I don't like is the fact that Rempe played the card by himself and not for the NYR squad. He hurt the club for 4 games even if he is a fourth liner, his presence in front of the net is an important one. He needs to learn he plays for a team 1st and anything else is secondary.

No, Supplemental Discipline may be assessed to any Player regardless of whether or not the infraction was penalized by an on-ice official. This is right from the NHL. That was not a suspendable offense.

Same. Though one could say it’s not the league’s job to teach lessons, I have no problem with this. Rempe is much more valuable playing not being a sideshow.

It's not the league's job, but they did him a huge favor.

So what is the point of pissy teenage mods keeping their power trip on the forums at all?

That is a great question and one that I am trying to answer. I'm not one to bring dirty laundry in public but I care about the people here and until there is a resolution, the best thing is to just stay away.

 

[aufheben]

Feels like they tacked on a couple of games for reasons unrelated to the hit.

Agree. No point in arguing with the Devils/Capitals trash on the main board. They are losers.

 

[Cmox]

Are the Devils fans really attacking his sister? It's a f***ing game you don't even play in you mongos. The internet was a mistake.

At least I’m not taking crazy pills. It would also be good to know which moderators I should entirely avoid in threads.

Just avoid the thread and you will be fine.

Probably all of them besides our own. But especially the bitch ass Debbie and Crapitals ones

Exactly. The 4 games is a win-win. Giving him 1 or 2 doesn't send the right message imo. We all want him to succeed and he will do that if he learns to play a honed game with physicality, at the right times. Right now he's running around like a lunatic desperate to stay in the lineup and I don't fault him for that. But I believe he can be an effective player on his own right, while bringing that physicality appropriately.

The elbow was dirty as hell and those have no place in the game. They are a dead weapon for causing concussions. Anyone who plays that way, Rangers or not, should have the book thrown at them.

Caps? This is probably the highlight of their season.

 

[Leonardo87]

Folks, don’t @ people or call out people from another forum, thanks.

 

[kovazub94]

Surprised we have so many homers tbh. 4 games is fine. I’d not be surprised if it were 3 either (5 would’ve been excessive). This is not a big deal to the Ranger if you exclude entertainment angle. Brodzinski or Edstrom coming it should make it zero impact to the strength of the lineup.

 

[Row I Goon]

Rempe is Tony Montana - the person others want to point their finger at and say "That's the bad guy"

Hypocrisy writ large

 

[Alluckks]

Moreso about knowing who to avoid in any future threads. I tend to avoid the angry homeless man regardless if he is currently having a meltdown or not.
