Glad I got to see the rise of Matt Rempe in my first year of watching Hockey and the Rangers. Definitely a wild season and I’m seriously wondering why I never seriously watched hockey before.
There isn't a more exciting sport in the world. The skill, toughness, how hard it is to win the Cup/what teams have to endure to hoist it, the Cup itself is the most storied trophy in the world and even the SOUNDS of the game is addicting. I think the only reason it isn't as popular in America as it should be is only because of how inaccessible it is to play for most kids. If more people were able to play it'd be far more popular. It's much easier for most kids to get into a sport if they have played or can play it themselves. Unfortunately in America it just isn't that way. How many basketball courts do we have in just a couple mile radius? Alot. How many teams are there and how cheap is it for a kid to play football? Many teams and it's usually very cheap. I WISH hockey was this way as well...
“Rise of Matt Rempe” he’ll barely sniff the ice next season, he’s a hired gun, and not in a good way. Hired guns are supposed to be depth scorers and grinders who help teams advance in the playoffs. Rempe just tries to hit people, and usually fails. He got leveled by a couple of panthers just by not knowing what to do. Dude is a total clown, it’s a shame too cause if he actually tried to play and got better he could’ve been something special
@@zachlesk5685 Just say Matt Rempe could easily beat up your favorite player and move on lol. No reason to be insecure and complain in the comments about him.
@zachlesk5685 Buddy….i gotta be honest, out of all the takes I’ve heard on Matt Rempe, yours is hands down the worst by far. Rempe is reminiscent of a better more entertaining time in hockey and if the kid can develop some skills and improve his fighting, he’ll be the number 1 selling jersey within 3 years. Go watch soccer.
@@Norcolas sorry that I feel he’s not a legit hockey player… but don’t glaze him like he’s some hockey pariah, he’s a clown more focused on fighting than winning. That’s why his average ice time is under 1/10 of a full game
You have to respect the kid coming into the league and immediately running the gauntlet of fighting the toughest men in the NHL. Would be interested to see how he would fair against Xhekaj
Ya....and he started getting rocked, to the point where, if he wasn't careful, he could end his career, simply due to concussions from fighting. The guy could barely keep his balance after the Deslauriers. fight. He got nailed hard.
@@CanucksNatelmfao youre in love with me I live in your head rent free Actually they’re staying and they cleared cap space and you lost Podkolzin to us
He’s going to be a physical monster this season, NY knows what they have, they aren’t gonna let him go, he’s a generational tough guy, players like this don’t come around as often as people act like.
@@jeffreycairns767 kid was one of the fastest players on the ice at camp this year. He is more than just a tough guy. If he was on any other team than the Rangers, he would see much more ice time. As a Rangers fan, hopefully they send him down to Hartford to let him develop. The Rangers dont run their 4th line nearly as much as most teams do, so hes not going to get the ice time he deserves IMO.
@@RPierce84 He definitely needs to develop. Being fast or tough will not win games, especially without alot of skill. If this was Anaheim or SJ, he might have enough skill, but this is the Rangers.
@@jeffreycairns767 I agree. But to say he isn't skillful is a short sided take IMO. I just used speed as one example. We watched his line countless times last year take the puck into the O zone and keep it there the entire shift, followed by a goal from the next shift. That isn't a coincidence.
I was at game 1 against washington this past postseason (actually wearing a rempe jersey). We chanted his name every time he touched the puck, and when he opened the scoring, that place went wilder than you could imagine. He's had some elite company this offseason, training with laroque to get better at fighting, training with kreider to get better at skating and his overall play, and hes also living with johnathan quick. he cleans up his game a bit and he can be a menace in the league for years to come (the hit on Bastian was questionable, looked as bad as it was just because of his size and the fact that he had his head down, bent over the puck, but the hit on Siegenthaler was definitely dirty) Say what you want about his play, but damn does the garden love him, and im here for every minute of rempe-mania
Rempe had a similar impact on the Rangers as peak Sean Avery did with regards to the fun antics and fights. Avery just happened to also be a pretty good player too.
It's insane their honor towards their opponents. No sticks no eye gouging. Yes there are PLENTY OF PUNCHES TO BACK OF THE HEAD BUT THEIR DEFENSE ON THE ICE ESSENTIALLY ENTAILS TURNING HEAD AWAY FROM PUNCHES WHILE HOLDING OPPONENTS ARMS AT DISTANCE TO SET UP THE COUNTER.
Delaughier vs Rempe was a straight up nail biter. No losers in that fight. Difficult to call it really. Draw. But a lot of bone-jarring punches exchanged that would've killed the average man. Lol
@@edited1325 The only thing Rempe has over any of the experience fighters is age. The older guys are a little slower but have proven themselves as heavy weights. A Rempe win means nothing.
Do they? Did the Rangers make it to the finals with him? Did Florida or Oilers have a "goon" to get to the finals or win the Cup? Me, I would rather spend the money on a player that can out up points rather sit in the penalty box.
Is a lot of pipe around the guy who has lost almost every fight. The biggest guy serving as something of an enforcer who also hides behind the face shield.
It warms my heart that while some 21 year olds are wearing key chains and acting like woke women we have a REAL MAN amid them. Maybe theres still hope yet.
hes gotta reach on most guys in the chel but gotta learn how to defend he gets popped too much but hes got some balls fighting the gys he did as a rookie
Doubt we’ll see much of him next season. He had a very awesome debut at Metlife and won 1 game for the rangers against the flyers but other than that he really isn’t all that special
It’ll be the same as last year. He will play in about 20 games for 5 min a night when they want a tough guy. Or give someone a rest. And he might play in a playoff game if they need to send a message.
I'm a leafs fan so I like Reaves, but I'm also a fan of rempe. I believe rempe has been training with Georges laraque this off-season, so I expect him to be a beast this season
An older fighter vs a young one? Rempe has the upper hand but regardless of who wins a fight, the league is moving away from these types of players. Both can fight but are all but useless otherwise
If he keeps fighting like this, he will get destroyed, he can't hit properly or avoid a punch properly, all he has is his size, yet it is his size that will hinder him. He is too slow and cumbersome and he is playing a dangerous game. Unfortunately, all these armchair warriors who think this is all cool, will watch this kid end his career from too many hits to the head (concussions). He is also running a HUGE risk of getting hit really good, being checked in on the snooze cruise before even hitting the ice and possibly smacking the back of his bare head on the ice as he falls down. Every hockey player's dream. End of career or even worse.

Even Reevo said he's going to be a menace.
Let’s not forget that this was all in like a month
It help the Buisness
The 5v5 was awesome
Too bad the Rangers couldn’t score in that fashion as well!😝
I love Rempe for his against the big dogs.

Rempe would smash him.
never would i have thought id be watching hockey like that. this is frickin awesome lmao
This kid... Deslauries, Martin, MacDermid, Reaves and Olivier in the same season. Balls of steel.
or zero brain cells
@@ExtremelyVitalBrain cells are overrated
balls of alternative education

Hell yea. I hope so too. That be awesome.
I can’t wait for his rematch with Olivier and Reaves. They better watch out
Xejkay is the new champ
@@todmclean3154 he's a scrapper for sure too.
Deslauriers VS Rempe was one of the coolest moments of the whole season. What a show
The way he was doing this at all stars 😂
Came here for the thumbnail stayed for the fights

Lol he won't even be their 3rd choice when they need a call up
4:12 I love how Rempe doesn't even bother to pretend
Then the other two NJD players looking lost between all the fighting
Damn bringing back old school
More like a highlight reel of remps getting beat up. Feel like we left out some pretty big wins
Olivier gave him the business
Def showed him how the big boys do it. Big tree fell HARD
Rempe had a similar impact on the Rangers as peak Sean Avery did with regards to the fun antics and fights. Avery just happened to also be a pretty good player too.
Jeez some good fights here
This kid throws down. He will be a contender this season
Keep these comin, ked
That kid sure loves to fight! And I think a lot of veterans want to fight Rempe to put him in his place.
I love hockey ... best sport ever. 5v5 ..... LET'S GOOOO!
Mathieu Olivier got it so easy lol congratulion to him a big courage
Don’t know what’s the more entertaining the game or the fisty cuffs
I saw REMP losing to DESLAURIER, OLIVIER and REAVES
Laraque is the most underrated enforcer in the history of the NHL
Rempe Always gets hit in the face, and still climbs!😂
As you relish every fight was before the 15 minute mark in the first
"hardest hitting moments"
doesnt add a single hit. Good job sportsnet!
I beg to differ, there was plenty of footage of Rempe getting hit in the head by another dude's fist.
Anyone else notice during the rangers vs devils line brawl that igor shesterkin droped his gloves too?

GOON HOCKEY !!!!!!
GOTTA LOVE IT...THATS WHAT THE FANS PAY TO SEE !!!!!
2:23 👍
One of the highlights of the entire season right there
Love the kid.
I'm not a fan of Rempe but I have to admit he's got balls of steel!
Rempe has a good reach. Once he grabs the opponents jersey, very hard to get close.
Whoo! ❤
Delaughier vs Rempe was a straight up nail biter. No losers in that fight. Difficult to call it really. Draw. But a lot of bone-jarring punches exchanged that would've killed the average man. Lol

Probably chara due to more experience
@@edited1325 The only thing Rempe has over any of the experience fighters is age. The older guys are a little slower but have proven themselves as heavy weights. A Rempe win means nothing.
Slow off-season if Matt Rempe gets a "best of" vid.
I won’t be surprised if he drops the mitts against Tom Wilison
matt rempe before ice hockey study on fighting. espically go to sao poulo and from the coaches from there learn brazilian jiujiutsu
Every NHL team needs a Rempe
If every team had a Rempe, no one would ever win a Stanley Cup again.
Do they? Did the Rangers make it to the finals with him? Did Florida or Oilers have a "goon" to get to the finals or win the Cup? Me, I would rather spend the money on a player that can out up points rather sit in the penalty box.
NHL unfortunately has no place for goons anymore. *sigh* time to watch the movies again
REM-PE
Is a lot of pipe around the guy who has lost almost every fight. The biggest guy serving as something of an enforcer who also hides behind the face shield.
Probert just skated to the peanalty box he didn’t hotdog
It warms my heart that while some 21 year olds are wearing key chains and acting like woke women we have a REAL MAN amid them. Maybe theres still hope yet.
Rempe was never a big deal….just a tall guy
He is basically a punching bag. Obviously height doesn’t matter
When this kid learns a bit more technique , guys won’t be too eager
hes gotta reach on most guys in the chel but gotta learn how to defend he gets popped too much but hes got some balls fighting the gys he did as a rookie
W matt rempe
Young man has had a lot of head trauma.
Rempe is the hands of the NHL rn!😈😤😤
oh man Olivier Cleaned him out
Rempe should've won the Calder
😂😂😂😂
Matt Rempe vs Arber Xhekaj 2024-25 fight
Benched. As we all expected.
TNT with the worst coverage of that fight ever! They only really showed Rempe
When he learns to fight better…look out. He’s a rookie after all.
He's been training with Georges laraque this off-season, so I expect him to have improved his fighting skills dramatically
Now if only his skating was as dangerous as his fighting…
He will have a short career. He dosent do anything but fight.

It's not a fighting league anymore. Nobody needs a young fighter with little skill
Ever won a fight

Old time hockey. Grit, tenacity and a little bit of violence.
