Return of the Rempe.
Matt Rempe was back in the lineup against the Bruins on Thursday after serving his four-game suspension.
Rempe has quickly became a fan favorite and gets cheered every time he touches the puck, lands a big hit or starts a fight. He’s become a key pieces to the Rangers’ success.
To talk Rempe, the Rangers injuries to a few defenseman and everything else going on with the Blueshirts, we bring you a new episode of the “Up In The Seats” podcast.
Brian Boyle and Mollie Walker are joined by guest co-host, former Ranger and NHL Network analyst Mike Rupp.
Up In The Blue Seats Podcast with Brian Boyle, Mollie Walker & Mike Rupp:
- BOYLE BETWEEN THE BENCHES: Boyle talks about his first experience reporting between the benches on Tuesday at MSG in the Rangers loss to the Jets.
- EAST STANDINGS: Teams are going to be switching places. It’s tight in the East. Rangers are just two points ahead of the Hurricanes. Any concern with the Rangers’ losses over top teams?
- LINDGREN/TROUBA INJURIES: How will this affect the Rangers not having two of their best defenseman? Lindgren will miss a few weeks. Chad Ruhwedel will play a big factor now. He can play in this league. He’s low maintenance.
- MATT REMPE RETURNING: Should be back tonight from his suspension. Reacting to the suspension and the impact he has on the Rangers coming back. Peter Laviolette has a tool that nobody else has. No other team has a player that can bring everyone to their feet like Rempe. Want to see him in the lineup every playoff game.
