[Rebels57]

He's trying so hard to make a name for himself. Someone really needs to put him in his place.

He's already been pummelled multiple times.

UPDATE:

You should be able to change your vote (there is a March 15 deadline however) through some manipulation of the system via an admin's help.

Fixed!

Thank you

Haven’t been watching much. Can Rempe play at an acceptable level? Or is this another case of embarrassing NHL stuff?

How times change!

Tom Wilson episode against the Rangers

He just jumped 3 players because hes mad about a penalty earlier in the game. Hasn't been a bigger pos than him since Matt Cook. Should never play another game in the NHL again, a danger to everyone. Edit: Video Edit #2: Also did this and Panarin left the game. Embarrassment

No. He's a plug.

Wait, so the Devils signed Kurtis MacDermid as a deterrent and he was literally on the ice for that cheap shot? How are we still doing this?

Weird how CBJ couldn't move Provorov for a 1st at the deadline.

Unless someone teaches Anthony Joshua or Tyson Fury to skate to a decent level and ices them on the 4th line there is no-one who is going to be a true "deterrent" and even then you would still have big nasty hits as it is just instinct in some situations, game happens so fast and no-one is thinking "oh no, big bad boy is on the ice" when they make the play itself.

Because guys who are quite frankly ~amateur boxing level tough are very unlikely to kill/seriously alter the course of your life barring some bad luck. A few stitches does not deter anyone even if they have time to think.

Donald Brashear was a pretty terrifying fighter who could really, really hurt people, inside and outside of the rink with his boxing and MMA record showing that too! But as we know even pre-lockout he was not a true deterrent for oppositions taking pot-shots at players.

I think they want their next GM to make that decision.

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

At least Rempe plays an honest game, though. Not trying to ruin the sport with fancy skill plays. Gotta respect that

And Brashear had some actual hockey skills.

And Brashear had some actual hockey skills.

Him and Chris Simon for me are the gold-standard for "4th line tough guys who can actually play very, very good hockey in all three zones".

How many f***in teams do they need

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

I am baffled why refs continue to call goalie interference when a forward gets driven by the defenseman into the goalie. My case example is Kempe against the Islanders.

If the play happens and the player has a chance to stop his forward momentum and doesn’t they will call a penalty. It’s a bang/bang play most of the time.
Going to have to wash my hands now after trying to defend a official

There is too much trash in the league already, and while I know the incestous nature of men being promoted to NHL GM positions - that isn’t changing.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been a Flyer fan through a decade plus of garbage, but the game itself is worse than it used to be imo.

Not sure more teams helps that.

Next they will be expanding the number of teams to make the playoffs.

Thanks, Back. As probably the most goalie-biased person on here, I agree with your interpretation of the rule, which makes perfect sense. But far too many times, we've see a defenseman ride an opposing forward right into his own goalie or change the forward's trajectory at the last second, as was the case last night to the play to which I referred. The cherry on the sundae is when said defenseman then jumps the player for hitting his goalie.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

The whole Rempe ordeal is a race to see how seriously gets hurt first whether that’s Rempe himself &/or another player.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I’m gonna guess it gets two games. It should be five or more but Parros is man of always coming under low expectations. He could fly a 737 under a bridge in that regards.

@ellja3 apparently the Devils thing was officially announced a few hours ago, you can register for ticket pre-ordering

Four games.

Rangers' Rempe suspended 4 games for elbowing

New York Rangers forward Matt Rempe was suspended for four games by the NHL on Tuesday for elbowing New Jersey Devils defenseman Jonas Siegenthaler in the head.

www.espn.com

New York Rangers rookie forward Matt Rempe was suspended four games by the NHL Department of Player Safety on Tuesday after elbowing New Jersey Devils defenseman Jonas Siegenthaler in the head on Monday night.​

​

It's the first suspension of Rempe's 10-game NHL career. Rempe will forfeit $17,083.32, with the money going to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund. He can appeal the suspension to NHL commissioner Gary Bettman, who would have the final say on that appeal.​

​

Rempe was given a game misconduct with 30 seconds remaining in the second period of the Rangers' 3-1 win over the Devils.​

The Flames send out the weirdest tweets about serious things.
