Rempe and Reeves just fought. Rempe had the reach but Reeves got in some pretty good hits.
Neither went to the ice, just tired out.
That was a charge if I ever saw one.I thought he probably should have been penalized for that hit. Could have been called for boarding or charging IMO.
I was thinking about this last night.Guess Gadjy is gonna have to go with Rempe on Monday haha
The exact feelings of every other crying fanbase after they play us. We cant have it both ways. Keep your head up!I can’t wait until someone drops the Goliath Rempe until he’s pretty much done for the season. That run he took at Lyu was uncalled for. I don’t care who drops him and where. Could be the Russian mafia for all I care. I officially hate NYR more than I ever did.
Before you get on my case, imagine the Rags coach telling Rempe, who has zero brains, to take a run at Tkachuk.
Sorry, not an equivalent. Rempe is different from the rest. That’s why I singled him out.The exact feelings of every other crying fanbase after they play us. We cant have it both ways. Keep your head up!
Different why?Sorry, not an equivalent. Rempe is different from the rest. That’s why I singled him out.
We don’t have one guy who’s a giant whose only job is to go after the other team’s talent.Different why?
Again that is just your/our perception, most fans believe we as a team are worse by far.We don’t have one guy who’s a giant whose only job is to go after the other team’s talent.
Our guys are not exceptional fighters, our effort is team wide where everyone contributes. The Rags have Rempe trying to destroy their talented opponents before they send him back down to Hartford. They don’t give a shit about Rempe’s hockey future. They only brought him in to be a fighting machine. The rest of the Rags are cowards.
That’s why it’s not at all comparable.
WSH won’t make it. It was a pipe dream.In the East, 5 teams are pretty much guaranteed in the playoffs - FLA, BOS, TOR, NYR, CAR. After that I think the remaining 3 will come from a group of 5 - PHI, DET, TBL, NYI, WSH. I predict that two of PHI, DET, TBL will make it and one of NYI, WSH will make it.
In the West, 6 are pretty much set, VAN, EDM, VGK, DAL, WPG, COL. The remaining 2 will most likely be NSH and LAK, but CGY (5-0 over their past 5) or maybe STL has a shot if one of the other two go cold, but I doubt it.
They really let a good opportunity slide today and played very uninspired.WSH won’t make it. It was a pipe dream.

Teams are trying to even the playing field, they won't be able to.
Rempe like Reaves and players of their ilk are unplayable in the playoffs. We don't have one trick ponies, that's why there is so much salt.
Rempe is a young kid trying to earn a gig. I don't see it continuing for much longer, he will get seriously hurt sooner or later. Even Worrell didn't fight every night.I think the bolded is where KW is coming from. I get what you're saying, other teams hate us because we play hard and can be seen as dirty, but I don't see our guys going out to intentionally hit or fight to injure, plus all our guys can and will play every game. People can hate on Cousins all they want, but he's still a legit player. Guys like Rempe... Feel like the slideshows of the 90s.
It's kind of like Vegas or Carolina. They play hard too. But i respect them for their game as much as I hate it when we play them. Rempe is something else IMO
How is he somehow considered as a hero when his actions were more dangerous than what Nick Cousins did?Watching that Rempe hit on Lyubushkin again, I do think that was charging. Lyubushkin has a concussion. As KW says, this guy really does have one job, and it's to injure the other team's talent.
Cause he fightsHow is he somehow considered as a hero when his actions were more dangerous than what Nick Cousins did?
