“I got to go out there, I want to make them proud. I want to go out there and do something.”
What is the New York Rangers identity? Does it change when Matt Rempe is in the lineup versus when he’s not?
“They got a lot of guys who like to play on the edge; I think if I can get an opportunity, I can help with that,” Rempe said. “That was so much fun. I got to play some more minutes. I was having the time of my life out there,” Rempe said. “I thought I was moving my feet really well, getting in on the forecheck, making lots of hits – playing really physical and mean. I had so much fun and I’m so happy we got the win. That was the best.”“I thought he came out and had a real impact, especially early on in the first period,” Rangers coach Peter Laviolette said.
Whether you believe in it or not, the Rempe effect is real. Laviolette has it in his back pocket whenever he feels it’s necessary. There’s a vibe around the Ranger fan base that the feelings on Rempe playing are very split, but, sometimes, you need a spark. What Kaapo Kakko brings to the Rangers lineup is nowhere near the same kind of impact that Rempe has on the game – and vice versa.
