If I had said the name Matt Rempe 2 weeks ago, would you have known who I was talking about? Well, neither would I... but this kid is an absolute DAWG. Just 4 games into his NHL career and this 6 foot 8 240 pound Alberta boy is making a serious name for himself in the NHL. Making his debut against the New York Islanders in the Stadium Series, meant he became the first to ever take a rookie lap outdoors. Not only his first game but his first shift, he dropped the gloves with Matt Martin at centre stage infant of 70 thousand, so he certainly made a splash. Then against the New Jersey Devils just 2 nights ago, he laid a massive hit on Nate Bastian which, it was a hit to the head so he got a 5 minute plus the boot. Then came today, playing the Philadelphia Flyers when after a little chat during warmups with Nicolas Deslauriers he had himself another scrap which may have been the fight of the decade against one of the best in the league. Notice something here? the Islanders, the Devils and now the Flyers in his first 4 games. This kid is mowing through Rangers rivals at an unprecedented rate. Exactly how you win the hearts of not only a fan base, but your locker room. And yes, he still has more penalty minutes than he has playing time on the ice. As for the game itself, it was a great one so watch as I cover it all in todays NHL video!
FIGHT: @
#NHL #highlights #hockey #newyorkrangers #Philadelphiaflyers
Here is the fight: kzhead.info/sun/atJxYKp9iJOZoac/bejne.html
Take off the visor and he would get more respect
Dude cmon yes I'm a Flyers fan all the way and remember the good Ole days(Shawn Antoski was one of my favs and I met him him when I was working as a cocktail waitress and he was SO nice and even low-key surprised I knew who he was lol) But I am not biased when it comes to a fight. But Deslauris who got a FAIR one in(not the LOW blows that Rempe has been doing) got him good..Rempe had 2 black eyes it was close close but dude Deslauris held his own with Rempe and showed him the meaning of #BroadStreetBullies 😂
You know who won that fight? HOCKEY. Rempe has broken the internet. Everyone talking about him.
Nobody will soon he hit a truck tonight vs a smaller than him but tougher. Rempe is weak and can’t play hockey
@@Jean_Maurice Did he beat up your dad or something?.
rempe waste of payroll, your childish comment makes me believe you are the human version of period cramps @@yakivpopavich
Birds man they all seem to break the internet first Shea then Barzy now Rempe and I swear there is another in there, next it'll be Tyrel with the Jets or Davy with the Canadians and his story or heck maybe even Marty is gonna become a big name soon.
Yup. I’ve never liked hockey. I’m in this season because of this kid hahaha…and I just moved to Denver 🤣
most legendary start of all time. He could never play again and ill nevcer forget this.
Well, based on his fights/games played pace, he may never play again sooner than you think.
@@wilseph1 out there again today.
Fax just like Barzys Start but 10 fold more memorable.
@@wilseph1 4 playoff games in a goal and an assist how’s he doing now.
If Rempe stays physical and stays at the front of the net, he'll be a valuable player. The guy doesn't need to fight every game to stay in the league, he and Edstrom can give the 4th line an identity that the Rangers haven't had since the days of Dom Moore and Brian Boyle.
Neither play in the playoffs. They’ll get some run now though.
if he doesnt fight he doesnt play lol
@@beachmaster9042ye but he can be valuable in front of the net
@@beachmaster9042 Not true... 😮😮😮
@@HarrisonHollersLess fisticuffs in the playoffs, but Rempe provides gives NY ground & pound pressure & grit, which is what you need from the 4th line. Barring a blockbuster trade, I think Rempe gets postseason action.
The whole city loves this kid not only he destroyed the devils he's scored against Philadelphia
Not only did he score, but he scored the GWG
We love him here in Seattle as well! #OnceABirdAlwaysABird!
Rempe is everything the Rangers need right now to inject that spice in their game. Kid is literally fighting for his spot, and he is earning it!
How? Just fighting people? So stupid. Also look at homeboys face now. This isn’t sustainable.
Watching devils fans on twitter lose their shit over him like they wouldn't love him if he wasn't on the rangers lol
Nick won 100%. Dont matter how bloody nick is he will keep going. Thats why hes the toughest in the NHL right now. Nick has won 99% of his fights. He man handled jack off and reaves
@@Eminim97 not even a fan of either team but a leg sweep doesn't equal a win you clown, quit riding your home teams meat
@@Eminim97And got bloodied by a rookie.
I was just thinking that as a Devils fan. I wouldn't mind seeing him on the Devils, they need some muscle, lol!
@@Eminim97whatever helps you make it through the day. Deslauriers’ face looks like an abstract art project after the fight.
Flyers fan here. This Rempe kid is impressive. Also, just that size alone... coupled with the physical aspects of his game, we've got a Chara-sized dude that plays with an edge. Yikes, but in the best was possible lol.
At least Rempe is willing to actually take a punch. Chara would pick a fight, land a few, then as soon as he started getting hit back he would just fall over and let his size pull the other guy down. And while he did early in his career, later on, he was terrified of fighting real fighters. Rempe obviously isn't.
Felt like watching the playoffs from start to finish. This one had it all. Great game.
With Rempe/Trouba on the ice that’s probably the most dangerous duo in the league (in terms of getting blown up) and my Rangers have it lol
Bennett/Tkachuk is close imo
@@thekillers1stfan tru, Panthers are the team to beat this year imo
@@thekillers1stfannot at all they’re scummy, don’t drop the gloves and always lay dirty hits and turtle in a fight
@@MitchyM115 turtling can get you a power play, fighting can't, Tkachuk and Bennett are the go-to's if you need a power play goal
@@MitchyM115Benett literally dropped the gloves with Trouba and bloodied him. Probably the most underrated fighter in the league. He's not huge but almost everyone he fights ends up bloody at the end
Ain’t nothing more exciting than Hockey man.
This type of old school hockey yes. The NHL games in the playoffs or most NHL games are boring today. Figure skating.
@@jimpurewal2661 I’ve enjoyed the recent playoff stuff as of late. But I don’t mind binging on some older games. Could do without massive penalties but it’s a small price to pay
I cant get enough of Rempe
Igor head butting shots reminds me so much of Henrik Lundqvist
Matt ( The Reaper) Rempe 💀 .
I ❤that.😂
Rempe is a skyscraper.... Beast.... Bout time Rangers get the grit needed.....😮😮😮
Phenomenal
@@frankt285 lets see how he does with Reaves or Arber….
stu grimson already had that one
Definitely an intense game with a playoff feel to it.
If you go by the post fight face review... Rempe won. 😂
Absolutely!!!!!!!!
💯Rempe was CHEESING and Deslauriers looked like his tail was tucked between his legs. That tells you everything you need to know.
Yeah he bloodied him. Great scrap though
hahaha lol i thought that at the time
No he didn't. Don't be a homer. Just because he left a nasty bruise on the forehead of Des doesn't equal win. They both landed a ton. Both took damage that showed the rest of the night, but Des landed more at the start and the end, and got the takedown. It was a very close fight but Rempe lost.
"I can't even say who won" while showing Deslauriers' bloodied face in the penalty box.
Olivier cleaned his clock good, and derailed his hype train. That boy needed help getting to the dressing room.
He sure did
Hell yeah…Go Jackets!
I like Rempe don’t get me wrong John Scott said he is going to work with him train him.. Chara didn’t do bad fighting he knew how to use his size and reach advantage.. I think if Rempe can do that he will get better.. Oliver definitely knows what he is doing not his first rodeo he got skill in fighting.. I also don’t hope Rempe becomes the next Derek BooGaard..
What I want most is to fly to New York and see this young man play. Absolute boost injection, that's what this young man is.
Rempe got rocked by the Blue Jacket Olivier 2 nights ago.
Love what this guy is bringing to the league
Kid is bringing attention to the NHL! Great stuff! We all appreciate the physicality and want it to remain in the game. Then see a guy like this work hard to round out his game above being solely a physical presence and hate on him? Hypocritical! The Islanders, Devils, and Flyers are all synonymous with tough guys when their teams were contending for the Stanley Cup: Dave Schultz, Clark Gillies, Scott Stevens. The Rangers Flyers game was incredible. It had everything! Embrace it if you’re a fan of hockey!
It's not hypocritical to want to watch good hockey and not some ftard elbowing everybody in head, that ain't hockey or grit, that's garbage. Arguing that there used to be cheap players and it's good that it's back is like aguing that drinking and driving is fine because it's a tradition from days of old.
The craziest thing is I've seen Matt Rempe play in person a bunch of times in the AHL and he was getting beat up by guys so much smaller than him. It's crazy to see how much he's grown as a player. Pumped for him
Mr. Rempe thank you for your service 🫡🫡
Fuck yeah didnt know he was from Alberta I like him even more now
Kid wanted to hear his name? He’ll be hearing it a whole lot more now kids a fucking warrior
NHL needs to change the schedule for next year. We need more rivalry games. When you see Rangers vs Flyers, Rangers vs Devils and Rangers vs Islanders you see wars. Hockey needs these to keep gaining more fans. No way the Rangers should have only played the islanders one time this entire year. Schedule is weak.
Like the divisions, why aren't the Leafs and Red Wings in the same with the Blackhawks and Blues anymore.
@@Dr._Jleafs don't belong in the west
He’s a rare breed of a hockey player, someone this young that is willing to drop the gloves and drop people on the ice. Absolutely insane. It’s a good thing in my eyes, but not in my inner Pens fan form 😂
WELL I GOT ME A NEW FAVORITEPLAYER EH
The Alberta kid Rempe was KO vs Mathieu Olivier (Columbus) a few days ago. The poor kid can't fight everyday, it's insane.
That hit during the Devils game shouldn't have been a misconduct...Once again in the new NHL players lead with / have their head down, obviously not protecting themselves, get smashed, and the other guy goes. If you lead with your head or have your head down during a play your asking for trouble, especially when the size difference is what it is. It is unfortunate when players get seriously hurt and you don't want to see concussion issues, but I'm seeing more and more hits lately that would be avoided or not as bad if your head is up.
love this dude he is a dawg in NY and was a Dawg in Seattle love this dude
I loved watching him in Hartford 😍
Best game recap I have ever heard!!
Class move by Deslauriers to help this kid make a name for himself. He is a good guy and has a respect for good old fashioned hockey.
He’s scary bro like Ivan “if he dies he dies” drago scary
The man is a menace on the ice
Commentators called Rempe and Edstrom the twin towers 😆
Knew that was a nickname but didn't expect them to say it on national television lol
*chef’s kiss*
Willie Huber and Barry Beck on Rangers named that in 80s.
I'm cool with this kid. Toughness on this team was much needed.
I love this kid! We need someone like him in the league to revitalize the toughness in the game.
I was aware of Matt Rempe prior to this call up. Prior to this season actually, and I was definitely reminded about him during the preseason when he dusted Ross Johnston. Happy to see him up, and having an impact. The rest of the NHL should follow suit tho! There are several other players like him in the AHL/ECHL. Get em up here to the NHL and lets get back to old school hockey. Who doesn't want to see that? When is the Arber Xhekaj vs Matt Rempe match up by the way? I'm dying to see that heavyweight bout!
that flyers score is one of the best this year. that was clean.
absolute goon, i love it
Not a goon rather a statement player although, he can mix it up if need be....😮
I like your recap. Nicely done!
Rangers fan, and already huge freakin fan of the kid, Rempes got that stuff ya know, but he's got stuff to learn as well and thats where I actually want to talk about Deslauriers, the way he goes about the warmup chat, and then the fight itself, I just got a feeling there was a heavy dose of "hey kid, I see you I respect what you got, let me show you some stuff" and hell I respect the fuck outta that.
I stopped watching hockey quite a few years ago, but this guy makes me wanna start watching again
Rempe is a Dawg !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
REMPE IS THE MAN.....HE IS A BEAST FOR SURE. WE HAVE A NEW POWERHOUSE
Oliver beat him
Nope, not anymore 😂
@@Cooler_By_The_Lake sure do
@stevo6891 it's his first year playing he is still a beast.... everyone loses here and there
@@PGP420 Not hating on the kid but he will have tough match up’s to come
Guy is gonna be that kind of enforcer that makes other teams HATE playing whatever team he is on. He did this in the freaking NYC sports market no less, kid is gonna be alright.
We love it!!! Some of us watch sports for the skill, and some of watch it to see grown men put a hurting on each other!!!.. I’m baying for blood. Let’s goooo Rempe
He is on a list with Tie Domi. Need we say more 😂
He will be a good fighter but right now hes a pumching bag
@@Eminim97Ask Martin, and, the other victims... 😮
@Eminim97 I don't know about you, but that punching bag sent Nicolas Deslauriere off the ice looking like Mikhail Gorbachev. That's one hell of a punching bag
@@Eminim97wish he was on your team, huh?
Dustin Byfuglien always been my favorite player now it’s this guy
I was just at a Wolfpack game seeing this guy play i hope this guy keeps playing
This NYR team is really fun to watch.
This is what hockey needs to return to.
What has happened to Hockey ? I`m from the UK and have always loved watching this great sport (I`m 60 yrs of age). Of course there was always fisticuffs, but it was always preceded by an "incident". Now it seems two opposing players meet up before face off:.."When d`ya wannit big guy ?";........" Uh, say two minutes in ?",....." OK, that`s good for me." Sheesh.
LOOK AT THE TATTOO that Rempe "drew" on DESLAURIERS FACE!!! 😮
Rempe won they fight by a lot the flyer had no choice but to lift rempe s leg bringing the fight to the ice causing it to end go Rangers 😊
Oliver destroyed Rempe
@@stevo6891 your looking at a different fight.
@@NYRangersteve Face it your boy got manhandled by Oliver.. The kid had to go back to the locker room to find out if he still knew his name.. A lot more guys will destroy this kid in the league..
@@stevo6891 I don't care. Fun to watch.
what an era to witness. we've got bedard on his way to being one of the greatest players, and now we have rempe going for the penalty minute record.
as a fellow albertan, i gotta support the boy, like how can i not 😭😭😭 hes makin us proud
Im 42..... British....NEVER been into Ice Hockey, but, Rempe has got me intrigued....i might be wrong, it just feels old school...and im loving it. Serious youngblood vibes.
Some old time hockey, love it!
Hope he continues to accept his role on the team. Enjoy it. Go Rangers!!
Deslauriers who i respect, had to slew foot to get outta that one
Yup. I lost respect for him after that move.
Nah that was a good clean takedown
Rempe is a perfect example of how hard work beats talent when talent doesnt work hard.
Oliver just TKO’d him in style. He has returned, but took a while.
Rempe gave Delores a Gorby.
I’m a devils fan and I wish we had him.
Good old fashioned hockey with two of the original six. Just the way it's supposed to be. Fantastic.
Such a cool debut
hockey enforcers aint no joke that boy rempe gunna go far forsure
I was at this game my friend got an awesome video of the fight, it was so awesome
Great commentary !
Loved him in Hartford
Great fight until the bush league leg pull for the take down.
Jersey and leg pull down? Vet trying to save whatever face wasn’t bruised up I guess? I’d think other guys around the league call him out for that BS on the new kid.
💯🎯 @@HarrisonHollers
I’m an islanders fan (unfortunately) but I like this kid. Rangers needed some grit and they got it with rempe
Not since the Jeff Bookeboom n, Joey Kocur day's on the Rangers....😮😮😮
@@frankt285 yeah man! Listen I’m an islanders fan but it’s nice to see a NY team that’s doing great. I also respect that the when the rangers see an issue on the roster they address it unlike the islanders gm. Good luck with the season man
This kid Rempe is a beast, i Rest my case watch out NHL this kid is taking no prisoners.
Well, he's done.
@@Cooler_By_The_Lake that's what your mouth says, let's see you fight him your the one who says he's done fight him, yeah I thought so all mouth, right doctor numbnuts. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As a Bruins fan, this kid is awesome! Real hockey is back lol
The young man can't fight his way through the NHL, he's going to get hurt...but he made it to the big show!!
He kicked that dude's butt dude was getting beat so he lifted his leg so they would go to the ground ending the fight 😮
great fight big win good job guys 👏👏👏LGR!!
True hockey fans how can you not love this kid and dose it with a big smile on his face GG big guy 💯🔥🏒💪
Rempe got layed out vs CBJ. He is just a goon.
Mathieu Olivier rearranged his face the other day. Lol
I’m hooked on these vids bro
Rangers GM watched Goon and thought "I need me one of those" 😂 old school enforcer vibes forsure.
Good Ole Prairie Stock. Big tough Calgary, Alberta boy and I hope he doesn’t get hurt. He took a couple of heavy shots from a class fighter and the coach should rest him a few days to clear his head. Hope he stays healthy and has a good career.
This man about to be in a constant state of bruised face ❤
My new favorite Ranger, number 73. Hockey is Back! ❤
Can't wait for Rempe to meet WiFi
Rempe vs. Wilson.... 😊😂😅😮
I think the Rangers may have a Craig Berube/Tony Twist style enforcer there.
In game 3 against the Caps, the Rempe hit was just jaw dropping! 😮 He got a 2-minute minor, but ref should have called it as “#73 New York, lifetime ban, for ATTEMPTED MURDER”! 😝 But as a life-long Ranger fan, I approved of the crime! 🙂
Love it!
The league NEEDS many more like Rempe! Hockey is best when emotions are raw and guys like this bring emotion back to the game! I don't know about other fans but the NHL is getting stale, I mean every team plays the same game, in the O zone you can't touch anyone anymore so you get these extended points of the game where the O players just skate around with the puck for 2 or 3 minutes cuz you can put your stick on them, you can hit them, so they run around with a tired D team just clogging up the middle of the ice holding on.
Albertan, baby!!! What a beauty
This is the type of guy you need in the playoffs...
"Bringing back that old school hockey"... Why are so many youtubers forgetting xhekaj did this a year ago...
Whoops! Spoke to soon as this big goon caught an all time beat down lol
Felt like a classic Rangers/Flyers battle out there.
The thing not said was Deslaurier grabbed Rempe's shorts to pull him down. He didn't want any more.
Love this kid.
