At that size, learn three basic skills; just finish every check, get good at poking pucks with that long stick, park yourself in front of the net and enjoy your 10 year NHL career, no sleazy stuff necessary.

It only took him 10 NHL games to get suspended for 4.

When I consider the 3 games Pospisil got and how much of a donkey this Rempe has been, 4 makes sense.

I like it. Scrapping, hitting, throwing elbows, he could be on my team any day of the week. I wish hockey had more of it to be honest.

He’s going to seriously hurt someone or get hurt himself. This is not a player that is finding the line, this is a player living on the wrong side of it on purpose.
Well goonery is all this player has.

If he wants to make a living with his hockey skills it'll be in the ECHL.

This isn’t old time hockey, this is Rocky Thompson losing his mind #### show.

If Rempe just played the game and used his size smart everyone would want him on their team.

Right now he is a novelty act.

A dangerous novelty act.

I was okay with no suspension regarding the Ottawa hit (I forget who he hit) because primary contact was shoulder and in the video you could see that he tucked his elbow in as much as possible.

But he's still a huge dude, he's got to be careful. His shoulders are where average dude's heads are.

This one? For me its a no-brainer. I gave him great credit in Ottawa for tucking that elbow so similarly I have to give great condemnation here for clearly winging it out.

In my opinion? 4 Games is the NHL saying: "Knock it off. Or Else."

And the fact he's a Ranger doesnt hurt matters. But if he keeps this up his Cup of Coffee is going to get cold.

I like scrapping if its 'genuine passion' rather than stage fights. If I want to see stage fights I'll watch Boxing or MMA. And I hate that crap.

I love hitting! But good, clean hockey hits. I like seeing guys not paying attention and getting rocked because usually a good, clean, hard hit results in passion and people might get hurt a little, cuts and scrapes, but rarely does a clean hit result in injury.

Evidence: "The Hit" Author: Corey Sarich.

I draw the line at throwing elbows, slewfoots, spearing, I don't like the dirty stuff. Get that out of the game. Thats where people can get injured and it hurts bodies and careers. I dont want to see that.

I know that if you want 'A' then sometimes things happen and you're gonna get some 'B' but keep it to a respectably dull roar.

He is a clown on skates. Not only is hurting people, but he sucks at fighting and gets his face caved in every time. He is going hurt himself.

The sooner this goon is out of the league the better.
