Confirmed with Link: Rempe Re-signed 2 Years @ $1M AAV

[NickyFotiu]

So happy for this kid. Fighting against all odds to stay in the league in a position that has been reduced dramatically. Lacks talent, skill, lacks hockey sense, and lacks a few brain cells but is in the show with the tools he was given. Size, and a ton of heart, and a great attitude.

The questions is. Is a head coach that doesn't normally employ overly physical players going to let him run? Hoping for the best for Rempe, but fearing we will see lots of scratches and a reduced role overall.

Has better talent than people think imo. Just needs to learn how to pivot and stop better.

Vinny's a very nice Italian boy! Had like half the team over to his grandma's for cutlets. Top 3 most likeable on the team EZ.

That’s true. Forgot him.

Good work to get a 4th/13F signed like this. Plenty of room for growth, but he has to remain on the roster going forward. Must pass through waivers to be sent down, so he's one of the 13 forwards for next year.

Othmann and Berard don't require waivers, so he has a leg up on both of them in that regard.

Does the deal have a NTC/NMC?

Does the deal have a NTC/NMC?

No. Players don't qualify for those until they are in years they would be UFAs, he's got awhile to go before he gets there.

It can't.

It can't.

It should though. He's a unicorn.

He’s 6’9!

Hyped. He improved so much last season. I'm here for his One Punch Man summer training regimen arc.

 

[Mac n Gs]

I think there's some pretty massive holes in his game, and the ridiculous amount of penalties he takes in such little ice time needs to be fixed. That being said, I'll always give this kid credit for working really hard and always trying to improve.

It's shaping up to be a really crowded bottom-6, and he's going to have to earn that full-time spot. I like that he's already here and training for next year.

No, but Drury just can't not include something like this so it has a

Honestly speaking I don’t think Sullivan is going to have much time for him, especially with better options knocking on the door.

The one thing that works against him is that he can’t kill penalties.

He’ll be a 13th forward sooner rather than later.

He's very fast. One of the fastest skaters on the team. I think that will endear him to Sullivan on a team of plodders.

Does the deal have a NTC/NMC?

I know others have given the legitimate reason it doesn't have an NTC and/or an NMC...

...but we know that, for all intents and purposes, the nanosecond after he dropped the gloves with Matt Martin in his first NHL game...he had a nonverbal NTC/NMC added to his Rangers' career.

 

[Irishguy42]

Brooks mentioning that this takes Rempe out of offer sheet territory is laughable.

I don't think anyone on the Rangers would lose sleep if Rempe was given an offer sheet.

Looking forward to cheering way louder for him than Zibs.

He has zero agility and takes a ton of bad penalties and penalties that aren’t penalties.

The lack of ability to do anything on STs is killer though. Hard to justify playing him when there are guys coming up who can.

No reason he can be used in new situations. He's 22. I don't think he's a finished product personally. What's the harm in parking him in front of the goalie on the power play? and he's at least got the reach and willingness to block a shot where maybe it could work on the PK. Someone will have to step in to Kreider's minutes there.

it takes longer for him to turn than it does to get a drink between periods at the garden. That won’t work on the PK, he would get toasted. Edstrom profiles way better to take the minutes Kreider is opening up anyway.

He isn’t going to be used on the PP and PP1 plays most of the time anyway.

 

[Baby Punisher]

Dude is underpaid, and the term is too short.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

He’ll take 5 bad penalties in the first 10 games and then Sully will have him riding pine so that’s a plus anyways

He’s improved his edges and turns over the course of last season but yes, Edstrom is still better suited to get PK time next season
