Rempe elbowing major on Heiskanen - Suspended 8 games

[LaffyTaffy13]

Tkachuk lands a vicious elbow to glendenings jaw. Simple 2 minute minor. Significantly more intentional and dangerous than rempes hit.

Trolling is an art. I've seen enough of this one - it's just not professional enough.

Your history in this thread is way more Yahoo Serious than dead serious.

Then exactly how do you think a slam to the jaw is more dangerous than a slam to the back into boards and back of the neck?

Which is more likely to lead to a serious injury that has damage on a healthy players career?

Watch that replay. Im dead serious

Your absolute homer bias for Rempe is pretty gross, and pathetic.

Eh, im in my 30’s. Been watching hockey my whole life. The product has fallen off a cliff. The soft euros arent entertaining. The theo fleurys, sean averys, matt barnabys and matt rempes are.

Not only dubious opinions on players but also a xenophobe. Fits.

Always thought he’d be best served spending most of the year there and trying to make a real hockey player out of him.

He's going to be back Thursday against the Devils...

Can't wait to see what stupid crap he pulls.

But he's not one...

 

[tarheelhockey]

At this point he’s going to get penalties if he breathes on anyone. The league knows how to get rid of guys like this if they don’t clean up their act.

You know you can be tough as nails without causing brain damage every other night?

Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

the NHL needs to remove these types of players from the league IMO. Rempe intentionally tries to injure players and he targets the head, just because your tall the other player is shorter it does not mean you can target the head.

this guy needs to go the way of Raffi Torres and quick!

8 games is an absolute joke.

it is blatantly obvious. Repeat offender, guy has no respect for the game.

8 games is a joke indeed. Should have been 2 minute minor at most

 

[Korpse]

8 games is a joke indeed. Should have been 2 minute minor at most

but it was 8 games and the next one will be longer. so sad.

Witch hunt!

So you never even watched real hockey? Thats sad…

He’s going to get into a fight, not throw a punch and body slam a guy then act like he won the fight? Guy won less fights then Kurtis Gabriel and Auston Watson combined.

When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.

He's team will be told there will be repercussions if he's on their roster.

As much as it makes the game more interesting, the last thing the Devils need is Siegenthaler or someone like that getting another concussion

He has the tools.

He was a decent enough WHL player. He's actually a center and still plays center when he's on Hartford. For most of his life he was a legitimate hockey prospect. His underlying numbers, albeit in a small sample, grade him out as an NHL 4th liner.

Somebody noticed his height and got in his ear that he needs to be a sociopath to make it.

There's a grain of truth there. His value as an NHL player is going to be in physical play and annoyance.

But he has to control himself. He might stick around as a troll who can take a shift. He's not gonna stick around doing this. It hurts his own team. The league has made it clear they're not going to tolerate it. People can disagree with the suspensions all they want, but you can't say you don't understand why they're doing it.

I hope he gets it through his head because I think he's probably an NHL player. I don't really have high hopes. It was too much notoriety too fast and now the kid thinks he's Rambo. His cult amongst Rangers fans doesn't help matters.

In that sense, it might be best to lay low in Hartford for a year.
