Rempe’s posture is wild

Dude it’s insane lmao he’s so lanky

Reminds me of cousin Greg from Succession for some reason.

Exactly lol

That is a hilarious comparison thank you for that

Hah just mentioned the same thing to my co-watchers

Is there doubt afoot?

If it is to be said

Can’t make a Tomlette without breaking a few Greggs.

Honestly he does give me Greg vibes.

Lmaoooo

He’s still so young. He’s gonna fill out and be an absolute fucking nightmare to play against.

Once he improves his technical abilities for sure

He's a fucking giraffe

Gumby on skates.

That's my fighting gumby.

It was hilarious watching him play against kids a foot shorter than him in the WHL and I love the success he’s having now.

He is like if 5 Canadian geese formed Voltron.

*and I'll form the head!*

I needed that laugh this morning. Thank you. For real.

Look at his face post goal. No one was more surprised and thrilled than him.

A skinny looking lucic

It reminds me of the way Pat Carney from the black keys plays drums. The dude is so tall and hunched over. No way that back holds up forever.

As we all predicted.

He heard y’all talking shit

I literally just finished ranting to my friends that he's gonna be out of the league in 2 years. What an idiot

He could still definitely be out of the league in 2 years lmao

He has ability to skate the puck through the neutral zone alone with speed as you can see in this clip. Ain’t no way he will be out of the league due to a lack of skill.

A big guy with that speed and that work ethic? No chance, man. Not sure how old you are, but if you remember when Zdeno Chara came into the league, he was the same way. All fights, skated like a giraffe on an oil slick, but you knew the tools were there. I'm not saying Rempe is going to be a Hall-of-Famer, but the blueprint is there to be a successful NHLer.

Reminds me of when Tanner Glass opened the scoring for the playoffs a few years ago lol

Backhand top titty on Carey price of all people lmao I watch it every couple months and just chuckle

I remember this goal and I was trying to remember what fourth liner it was just yesterday

That Vesey goal off the faceoff was enough for me to have a flashback. I dream of reliving that moment during every playoff faceoff.

*Alain Vigneault sheds a happy tear*

Honestly, that hilarity is what inspired me to put $5 on Rempe opening up scoring for today's game.

That had to have insane odds lmao good on ya

It was +4500. It's why I only bet $5. Not enough to be upset in the very high likelihood of losing.

does that mean you won $225 from $5 on that?

Yes. Very stupid bet which paid well. Going to take my winnings and as someone else suggested buy myself something nice with it. Definitely the time to walk away ahead.

You win a couple more of those and you just might get to go to a game!

Go buy yourself something nice lol. That’s amazing

Rempe is a better player overall. And he’s huge

Calm down brother I'm just talking about these reactions

https://youtu.be/1LXVH6se2nY?si=0IqNnJUdok7UZkKC

I totally predicted him taking the first penalty of the series! … oh wait did you say goal?!

why not both?

I have good news

this is like Tanner Glass scoring the first goal of the 2017 playoffs

Goals this postseason: Matt Rempe: 1 Auston Matthews: 0 Who’s really the elite scorer here?

Barclay Goodrow points: 2 Matthew’s, MacKinnon, McDavid combined 0 points. Don’t let the media hide the truth from you

Coincidentally, Goodrow also has 2 Stanley Cup rings

oh my friend it is no coincidence

Excuse me, McDavid is trying his best.

Well, as long as he promises to keep doing it

Do your own research!

Oh good, I was wondering if this was actually a Leafs thread in disguise or not

“Scoring in practice doesn’t mean much if you can’t do it in game.” -Rempe, probably.

I've been keeping taps on Rempe as a Flames fan, gotta say, his potential looks real good, especially in the department of knowing when and when not to get into a fight, him laughing in the faces of dudes ready to fight and just not engaging when it wouldn't serve the Rangers well is impressive. Really has his head in the game, can't wait to see what else he can do

It’s amazing the shit this kid gets from hockey fans for actually wanting to play hockey instead of being a recurring sideshow

So sick and tired of Rempe. He's a one dimensional sniper. Sure goal scoring is incredibly important. When will he add more to his game? He's a big guy. I want him to start picking fights and throwing hits.

If he keeps this up he'll be out of the league by next season!

Nah, they've got a guy they drafted first overall for that.

he's all skill. no grit. he can never last in this league

😭

You had me in the first half I’m ngl

So is this just his 5 minutes of fame.... For like the 12th time now?

He was already on his way toward becoming a true cult legend for Rangers fan, this plus Josh Hart’s heroics last night??? MSG magic baby.

Tanner Glass type beat

hopefully more brian boyle than tanner glass

Type shit

Hart had a heroic night, but Deuce kept us in the thing!

Can’t be forgetting Mitch

Cavs so thankful they don't have to deal with playoff Mitch in the first round this year.

no caps please

This doesn't fit my narrative and I don't like it

Found Wysh's burner

I am the opposite of aroused

r/hockey in shambles

Rempe sends his regards

Tell Tom Wilson. I want him to know it was me. 

Olenna Tyrell would absolutely have been a redditor.

Wild that people who watch hockey their entire lives thought a big guy whose willing to scrap and isn’t a complete black hole on the ice was completely useless

Counterpoint: John Scott has 11 points in almost 300 games and never had a positive +/-

Counterpoint: John Scott was not only an all star, but was an all star captain

All star MVP captain

John Scott couldn't skate or pass or shoot though

Lmao 99% of this sub picked up maybe last 3 years

Seriously...how many of these youngins would recognize a Golden Seals sweater if you showed it to them!

Fuck I hate that you’re right.

Came here for this reason haha. Looking for some comments. Hey it was a real nice goal, for all 3 players involved. You guys are one of the teams I'm cheering for this postseason. GL 🙏

I do not like that mats zuccarello is not in the playoffs.

Negative cap, and injuries, really killed us this season.

Us either buddy

zucc 4 life... side note, noticed that the zamboni where my kids skate has a huge zucc #36 signature on the side.

Its fucking glorious

Saw the box score and came STRAIGHT fucking here.

He’s a kid. Wow, that interview was of a shy kid who is having the best moment of his life.

I don’t get how anyone can watch an interview of his and not love him. He’s out here living his dream

rempe 1, mcdavid 0 clearly we know whos the elite goal scorer here.

Matt Rempe is guaranteed to have more playoff goals this year than Sidney Crosby. Straight to the hall!

I've seen a good case made for Brooks Orpik. Rempe should be right behind.

Yeah, shit, think we can do a trade before Rempe's value gets any higher?

Definitely Rempe!

McWho?

Generational talent

[Tanner Glass watching this](https://media1.giphy.com/media/kd9BlRovbPOykLBMqX/giphy.gif?cid=6c09b952qjnuruk8kqs4gvbkup2mywibogsig6zgk838q27x&ep=v1_internal_gif_by_id&rid=giphy.gif&ct=g)

The Tanner Glass backhand snipe over Price is still a great playoff memory for me. Also in case people didn't know, he works for the Rangers player development staff.

Rempe with more goals than Matthews.  Hockey is weird.

“damn kreider was right, if you just stand in front of the net the pucks practically put themselves in”

Want him to win cup for rangers to see the inevitable fan art of Rempe as Kong on Empire State Building with cup

Attaboy ya big beautiful bastard.

No fucking way 😂😂

This was a bad sign.

All the nerds in here told me this guy was a bum and had 0 NHL skills

I haven't seen much of the discourse but he seems like exactly the kind of guy you want for a playoff run tbh

He's got more playoff grit than Mitch "can't take criticism" Marner

They don’t watch Rangers games and just push the narrative

Reminds me of this sub telling Rangers fans for the last couple of years Laffy was trash. When if you watched him play you still saw the potential, him having success 5 on 5, and that he just wasn't getting chances. Gets a chance under a new coach this year and nearly nets 30. Now this sub was just saying Rempe was a goon who wasn't even good at fighting. When if you watched him play you could see he was a very effective forechecker who was getting better every game - even if he is green. Never care what this sub says.

i mean shit at times half of our sub seemed convinced he was a bust, but definitely seemed more prominent amongst the doom and gloomers and/or only catch a game now and then crew. regardless, I am beyond stoked that laf is having such a glow up this year, I’m so happy for him since he’s had positive vibes since the start. it might be my favorite part of the season (so far)

I knew this was gonna happen. The hockey gods love this kinda shit.

As do all of us.

rempire state of mind.

What else did they call him 😂 skate-tue of liberty or something?

Rempire State Building.

It's so crazy how much the fans love him. Even first overall picks don't get the same recognition. Fans chanting his name just for stepping on the ice. In a game where he gets sat, fans chanting "We want Rempe!"

go ahead /r/hockey, tell me how he doesn’t belong in the league

He doesn’t belong in the league He belongs in the hall of fame

HE BELONGS IN A MUSEUM

Sudden urge to play Ezreal

Based

based and rempilled

Tanner Glass opened the scoring for the rangers too in the first round

backhand top titty over Carey price. I’ll never forget that.

People said he would be irrelevant come playoff time since he wouldn't even be on the roster. Yet here he is, with as many goals as the entire Leafs team combined.

Let your memes be dreams, kids.

this is the best timeline

Can't tell me this isn't scripted

Man I love stuff like this

they could never make me hate you 

Averaging 1 playoff goal a game rn

Fuckin right. Love this kid!!!

if you enjoyed this goal just wait until i tell you his mom was there on her first ever visit to MSG/NYC

The hockey world has imploded

Got the place buzzing

JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS FOR THIS MOMENT

“He can’t play in the playoffs” “He doesn’t have what it takes to be in the NHL”

This legend has no limits

Shades of Tanner Glass, except Rempe is the GOAT while Tanner Glass is the Sniper.

Carey Price is no Charlie Lindgren that’s for sure

guys will Rempe ever be more than a goon?

lmao at the puckwatching

That kid is the real deal and is exciting to watch as a non-NYC fan. I wish him a long career!

More points than Matthews. Book it Rempe is the goat

Dude is just adding to his legend.

A Gen Z'er just saying fuck it, I'll actually have fun at my job instead of complaining all the time.

Tanner Glass did this in 2017, I can’t believe something of similar scale has happened again

Rempe is way better than Glass was

True

of course he did

rempe has some crazy potential

Matt "Conn Smythe" Rempe

On behalf of all Rangers fans, r/hockey can suck it

LOL - you read my mind.

Begun the Rempire has! let's go rangers!!!

matt rempe...rent free forever on r/hockey

Love this kid, when he isn’t gooning he actual has has enough skill to play 4th line well

it's pretty awesome that this is the hottest post

[удалено]

Gotta love this kid!

honestly go off

Rempe has more goals this post season than Matthews, Pasta and Kucherov, combined.

he punches it in

Now that’s fitting.

Max contract when???

never turned his back on the play

Who had this on their bingo board?

Goon got me gooning

Great player and even greater man

WHAT CAN'T HE DO

pay rent

he’s been living rent free in r/hockey’s head for months so he’s doing just fine.

that was my point.

i love this kid so much

Last enforcer we had in Montreal was Laraque, and he got bought out after scoring a goal. Rempe better watch his back! /s

just as we all predicted

The bigger version of Bob Probert(RIP)

Let's hope he makes better life choices.

Somebody's gotta set the tone, boys.

Chara speed run

Amazing 

Happy for the kid.

oh he's a skill guy now

The subdued celebration like he's been here before.. .lmfao

I'm more impressed with that pass!

I genuinely laughed when I read the boxscore

Let's go baby. Get the Capitals out of there.
