It was the definition of a cheap hit. I’m honestly surprised he didn’t pick up more than a minor. It’s times like these, that I miss having an enforcer on the team that could take care of a guy like that.
Rempe is a clown.
Such an old school goon move. It’s the time I wish we had Reaves back. Next shift that guy was out there it would have been addressed! Was no reason for that! Now he did have a good hit next period it was clean. But that one you’re talking about was un called for and could have ended badly.
It was a penalty but I’m not sure it was a 5. The worst part about that hit is that it took Rempe off the ice for 2 minutes; he is terrible, and his line controlled 38 percent of the shot attempts, so the Blues absolutely wanted him to stay on the ice.
I’m really kinda surprised the nhl isn’t taking a look at this. A player like that doesn’t deserve Ice time. Especially since he doesn’t do anything but throw questionable hits according the ranger fans.
It’s one of those situations where when even the homers are calling him a goon maybe more should be done 🤷♂️
Rempe is a fucking piece of shit goon, nothing more.
It’s times like this that I really miss Bortz.
It’s what we call absolute genuine fuck trash
He didn’t exactly blast Neighbors with everything he had, but the fact that he blindsided him is what makes it dangerous. Neighbors’ last season ended prematurely, because of an awkward hit that caused him to hit the back of his head on the top of the boards, so hopefully Rempe’s hit doesn’t compound those CTE problems for Neighbors.
He’s an oversized goon who will be back down in the AHL by next week.
It would be out of character for the League so anything about it
We need a goon. I’m going to guess Brayden Schenn chucks nucks with him when they visit in December.
Such a coward
Rempe is a waste of a roster spot league wide. No talent. His style of “play”, and I use that term loosely, belongs in the 90s.
Let nature take its course. He will either be relegated to the minors forever because he has no skill and only takes costly penalties or someone will make him pay dearly for his actions.
Dirty play. He’s now on my “he’s the worst” list. Not kadri level but he’s on my list now
It was an asshole move
