Tonight we'll recap the New York Rangers vs the Washington Capitals game 4 as we continue our look at the 2024 NHL playoffs! All that and more on today's NHL hockey video!
Lol how many years have you laced up? You don’t play differently because you’re big in anything over AA hockey in pewee. “Use your size to your advantage” is a commonly coached thing in hockey lol.
Rempe looks like Frankensteins monster out there. It's reminding me of Chara except he's a forward so he's way more involved in the play then Chara was usually.
Derek Boogaard seems like a much better comparison, rest his soul. Most remember Chara playing 25+ minutes a night against the opposing top line and on the power play and that doesn't exactly describe Rempe's utilization... But yeah, he's more involved because he plays forward 😅
Chara was an all around great defenseman though. Rempe is really great in this 4th line role - he has tremendous speed and size and has some stick skills. I think even if he doesn’t throw a hit, his presence is enough to intimidate opponents.
@@HarrisonHollers remember he has maybe 20 games under his belt in NHL actually its prob less he'll get better not chara level of skill but he'll get better
0:15 'The Washington Capitals just don't have it' yeah we know...all they have is an entire club geared now for 2 seasons trying to break one man's record.
It's just cheapens the record. Nobody was putting Gretz out to get easy empty net goals. Nobody told Gretz to just fucking coast and see if you can a cheap goal. Nobody told Gretz to just stand at the faceoff dot and launch clappers during power plays. The whole thing is just so lame. Either do it in a legit fashion or stop trying. The whole affair is just wrong on so many levels.
@@sharky2606 That's just Rempe being big, he's like what 6'6" any hit will look high, but that isn't the exact end-all be all for whether it's dirty or not, I think the fact that he was blindsided and it being late is a bit more of a deal, in conjunction with just how powerful his hits are. I think he's doing a decent job (Rempe) of reeling it in and knowing when and how hard to lay it on. He's only in his first year after all in the show and just 21, I think that he's gonna level out and be a guy who's fierce, but not over the top dirty where it tips into being dangerous/malicious.
@@talcat8031 Yeah, because hits directly to the head where you leave your feet are totally clean. And don't give me this "BUT HE'S SO TALL!!!!" bullshit, because there's nothing in the rules that says you can elbow players in the head if you're tall enough. Few players have earned the reputation of being such a dirty piece of shit as quickly as this dirty piece of shit.
If you're 6'7 there really is no excuse for your skates to ever have to leave the ice when hitting people. Chara definitely had some dirty hits in his career and guys got hit in the head because he was a giant, but I would almost never see Chara ever leave his feet even after body contact
@@drumagus2258Rempe has literally injured like 5 guys now and at least 4 of them were clearly dirty hits. The fact of the matter is Rempe goes out with the intent of just injuring other players and I just can't cheer for that crap
@@rickyrickardo3445first of all Rempe isn’t trying to injure anyone. He is like Ryan Reaves very very physical. Plus 6’7. I will gladly root for him all day 😃
yayyyyy I witnessed two women screaming at the person who asks you to show you’re ticket at the entrance of every section… I felt bad she was just trying to do her job 😢
The hit on Oshie was clean, solid; the hit on Van Riemsdyk was borderline. Two mins is accurate. Been frustrating rooting for the Caps this series; Shesterkin gobbles up any of their chances to get back in the game, great tending from Igor.
@@ichabodcraenWilson threw a big hit on Mika. No one cried. Oshie did playoff hockey tactics to get under Panarin’s skin. That’s the game. Wilson made that pretty insane pass to Stromer for the goal but he sinks into his bully tactics which is basically a player doing too much and not sticking to his own game.
The refs literally allowed the Caps to get away with murder this series, Rangers never ever ever should have more penalties with how the game actually was played. Feels like the refs want to keep the Caps alive and the series long because it’s the highest rated series this year but the Rangers so head and shoulders above Washington that it hasn’t helped
the boston vs leafs series has been super enjoyable hockey with so many hits on both sides and thats been super fun to watch, clean hitting just makes the sport so juicy
The fluttering goal Shesty let in was explained at the end of the first intermission on MSG. Lundquist said that, as a goalie, it's harder to save those weaker shots because they don't go where you would expect them to go. It made Shesty look stupid, but it wasn't an easy save tbh.
Who knew a team with a MINUS 37 GOAL DIFFERENTIAL would get swept first round. They don’t belong there. It should have been the Red Wings. They would have made it a good series.
On TNT they showed a stat that Rempe, since his debut in February, has 40 million social media views/clicks--the most of any player in the NHL. For a guy who plays 6 minutes a game. He's popular not just at MSG. That was a playoff hit. Ratings are up for a reason.
With every passing game in this series, I am reminded that the final playoff spot belongs to Detroit, NOT Washington. I know the Rangers are a good team, but Washington is putting up no fight at all - they look like a bunch of elderly bums out there
I’ve seen a lot of people excusing Ovi’s lack of effort because “he’s trying not to get hurt so he can break the goals record” and “he’s already got his cup” and there’s just no way that’s true. And if it somehow is true, then that’s absolutely pathetic for a captain of a team when your teammates don’t know when they’ll get another chance to compete for the Stanley Cup.
About the Panarin hit, I kept seeing Caps fans whining and crying about it and saying that “iF tHaT wAs ToM WiLsOn RaNgErS fAnS wOuLd bE LoSiNg iT HuRrRrRrrrrrr 🥴” The thing about that is… Tom Wilson has made a career of blindsiding, headhunting, and hitting from behind. He no longer gets the benefit of the doubt. He hasn’t for a very long time. It was like Matt Cooke… I loved the guy in Vancouver. Early on he played a hard, nasty game. Then it became dirty as fuck. If this was Panarin’s game, then, yeah, be mad as hell.
0:59 Pause video, put on .25X speed, click timestamp. Now allow it to go ahead a couple of frames and pause. Primary point of contact is shoulder to the head, then exploding in an upward direction. Loved this kid the first week, now all i see is his inability to control his huge frame and continuously make stupid choices putting player's careers at risk. How many times can he target the heads of players before one of them gets an injury that affects them for the rest of their life?
I do think this is a slightly misleading take. The elbow was tucked, contact was made with a tucked shoulder at high velocity. Defender does need to keep himself in a position not to be clobbered. I argue that the hit was so big that Rempes arm hit van Riemsdyks shoulder, then rempe's shoulder hit head because of the momentum. There was head contact but I don't see it as principal or intended. He just wanted to throw the body and he did so. Also the exploding outward is not applicable in this regard. Exploding outward after a hit is acceptable, exploding outward to make the hit is not acceptable. There will be a career ended by this man. But in the meantime I enjoy a powerhouse of a hit.
Yeah you're not getting it. He did not raise his elbows, he went for the body. That's the first thing. The second thing is that van Riemsdyk put himself in a vulnerable position. Read rule 48.1, both of those things are reasons the hit can be considered legal. These are just big hits that are a part of playoff hockey, they are seen all the time but again this just has to do with his reputation. Saying he "targets the heads of players" is so insanely wrong, he goes for the body and since he's big sometimes there can be head contact. Doesn't matter since he is going for the body, if the player puts themselves in a bad position that's their fault.
How many minutes have you played? He did a suicide back pass while looking at his skates. What's the 6'10-on-skates monster supposed to do, professor? Anyway, stick with your McDonald's job
So exhausting all of these people who just don’t understand what an elbow is, what a late hit is, or what a headshot is. A. There is a timeframe, after getting rid of the puck, when a player is still eligible to be hit. I’d say this one was borderline but not egregiously late and in the playoffs especially is fine. B. His arm was tucked at the time of the hit. And extending arm after contact is normal and is not an elbow anyway shape or form. C. Shocker, a players head can be contacted as long as it’s not the soul or principle point of contact. Both Rempe’s and Panarin’s hits were not. Through the body, even if head contact was part of that.
I agree on the playing down a bit which was annoying. This game should have been 5-1 and arguably a shutout. But the rangers defense bullied the caps all game long. Which was nice to watch. The REMPE hit was my favorite part along with the SHG. I also agree. … Penalties, Penalties, Penalties….
Caps fan here. I think it's a legal hit but it probably shouldn't be. Principle point of contact or not, hits like this take a toll over players careers. Your brain doesn't go, "oh well he touched my body first then drove it into my head so I'm fine"
As a Devils fan I'll say it for you...I'll be shocked if this doesn't end on Sunday. Rangers are playing the Capitals' game and they're way better at it.
I kinda want to see Wilson fight Rempe... but I _really_ want to see Ovechkin fight him. Ovi doesn't fight much, but when he does, he hits like a truck. He knocked Svechnikov out in three punches a few years back.
Svech was a teenaged rookie beanpole at the time. Have you seen ovechkins other “fights”??? He couldn’t even beat punching bag brandon dubinsky 😂 And his other “fights” are him turtling to mike richards and paul gaustad. Ovie is not a fighter nor is he very good at it. Please stop. There’s a reason why he only has one win ever in fighting and it was against a kid.
rangers fans will call that hit clean and then when wilson does the exact same thing to panarin in game 4, will start freaking out and calling for his head. dont be shocked if wsh is out for blood. Eye for a eye.
I'm trying out for a team rn and took a slapshot in warmup to the mask (goalie). I don't know if I have a concussion, but if I do this is probably the worst thing that could have happened. This is my only chance, and now I'm feeling a little off after that puck (played bad in the scrimmage after too, like a deer in headlights). Eck, what do I do?
See a doctor who can diagnose if you have a concussion or not. No tryout to start the season on any team is worth the potential long term damage if you did get one, and if you didn't it will put your mind at ease and allow you to play your best
@@igmusicandflying I must have been out of my mind writing this. I don't know why I asked on CZcams lmao. I spoke to my doctor and she thinks I'm alright to keep playing, so thanks for talking some sense into me, guys! EDIT: shortly after being told this, I began to have some symptoms, which changed my doctor's opinion. I did not continue to play.
They just need a quick series, even 5 games. Those 7 game series were our downfall 2 years ago against TB. But at this point just close out Washington and get rested for Carolina, who should finish off the Asslanders.
I'm thinking Vegas vs Florida again in the final. Obvious pick, I know. As a NJD fan I watched my team struggle with the "how to win" learning curve this year. For example, they often beat good teams and lost to bad teams. They have a long road. Vegas and Florida are veteran teams, built for this, and they have figured out what it takes.
a lot of penalties called and almost as many NOT called. I think twice the Caps players took obvious dives that weren't called. the Lindgren "crosscheck" was a joke.
Officiating has been baffling. A lot of stuff that should have been called wasn't, and vice versa. Neither team will be walking away from this series happy with the refs.
Knew Caps would crap the bed. They werent really that good this year. I feel Pens would have probably met the same fate but woulda been more competitive
That Rempe hit was clean asf, the Panarin hit was dirtier i atill think it was a good hit. I have no stakes in any of these games in a pens fan very neutral both hits were clean its playoff hockey
On the MSG feed you could hear someone yelling at TVR, you know Rempe is out there, he dumped the puck and was looking at his skates. All things you are taught not to do, he had speed to get around the net and the check wouldve missed or Rempe's big goofy ass would've lost his edge. The refs in the series have been terrible. Soft calls on both sides and missed calls on both sides, obviously they'll target the Rangers more because they have more physical players but 2nd round better not be like this
I'm not sure if I'd call that a penalty or not. It was a big hit by Rempe, but he didn't really jump, and the principle point of contact wasn't the head. Honestly, his lower body hit Van Riemsdyk in the lower body first and he started to fall backwards. Rempe slammed into the glass, and didn't hit Van Riemsdyk in the head or even the upper body for the most part.
tbh i don't understand, i thought the rempe hit was charging not interference, and i thought the controversial hit on oshie was about hitting his head, not interference. even though it was more interference than the rempe hit and yet had no call and the rempe one did. and i thought the rempe hit had more head contact than the oshie hit. arent players supposed to be suspended for hitting the head? is that still a thing? idk i don't understand any of this
This guy is a menace and should not be lauded as an enforcer. He is intentionally using his size as an excuse to injure other players. Shame on the Rangers for encouraging this goon.
Hank explained that early shesty goal, it hit a stick on its way so it had a weird path and just…didn’t go where it should have? It looks so bad if u don’t see the stick contact. Anyways, the second this game started I was like yeah…this one’s boring isn’t it.
This dude hasn't made a single video on the Panthers vs Lightning series despite it being a banger. He does this to the Panthers during the regular season too. It's really pathetic.
Every Rempe hit from here on out is gonna get called "2 minutes for being big af" lol
He’s been playing his entire life, should know how to hit with his size
@@hobo_hermes7204not in the NHL. He's 21 or 22 and played like 10 games, he'll figure it out
Lol how many years have you laced up? You don’t play differently because you’re big in anything over AA hockey in pewee. “Use your size to your advantage” is a commonly coached thing in hockey lol.
@@samathum4711 fair I guess. Then again I would say don’t target players if you don’t know how to hit clean yk
@@mediumdoubledouble9012 if “use your size to your advantage” is multiple suspension worth hits to the head then I guess I’m looking at this all wrong
Man that Rempe hit was crazy. He hit him back in time💀
“Ovi was dog 💩 but it was easily his best game of the series” that is a fantastic way to roast his game 1 and 2 performances 💀
Bro its 3-0 who cares if he has good performance losing is losing
@@jorgesst6615 If you can’t comprehend a comment, why do you feel the need to reply? 🤦♂️
Ovi needs to be on the 4th line, why is he out there so much? It’s frustrating to watch
@@donald3290 Agreed. He should be like a powerplay specialist, benched otherwise.
0:59:00 Rempe CONTINUALLY leading with his elbow high in the air!
He’s a friggen dirty player.
Rempe is a thug
Rempe looks like Frankensteins monster out there. It's reminding me of Chara except he's a forward so he's way more involved in the play then Chara was usually.
he doesnt remind me of chara at all. chara was a dirty POS, this kid just like to hit.

@@brangertheburger4227 yeah I’m just trying to give Chara proper respect. HOF D and top notch Captain leading one of the best teams during his tenure.
0:15 'The Washington Capitals just don't have it' yeah we know...all they have is an entire club geared now for 2 seasons trying to break one man's record.
Could be worse, I remember years as a Blues fan where DJ King getting in a fight that night was considered "getting your money's worth."

@@darksaga80 And nobody changed the rules of the PP to slow Ovechkin down. Gretz gets how many more goals if the League left the game alone.
"Everyone on the TNT panel thought the hit was clean"
also "Everyone one the SN panel thought the hit was dirty"
Gretzky was the only one on the TNT panel that wasn't all for it, but he wasn't against it either. He mentioned it was a bit late.
It looked a little high to me
It was a clean hit, and tbh it wasn’t really close.
@@sharky2606 That's just Rempe being big, he's like what 6'6" any hit will look high, but that isn't the exact end-all be all for whether it's dirty or not, I think the fact that he was blindsided and it being late is a bit more of a deal, in conjunction with just how powerful his hits are.

I literally sent a clip if the hit to my buddy with the msg "it was 2 minutes for interference, but we all know it was 2 minutes for reputation."
Remputation
no way that was a clean hit
@@ludokolman3195 non contact ball league starts in the summer
Dude got hit at 21mhp.... Literally the speed of a car 😨 no wonder why he didn't come back.
It was late and he got him mainly in the head. Dude needs to get better at picking his spots.
That's his trademark basically
Your parents dropped you mainly on the head, cope harder. Buddy got washed into next week you're soft.
The shadow realm hahaha.. that was one of the HEAVIEST hits I’ve seen in a long time
Oshie was asking for that hit and I’m glad he was okay with.
Rempe is the hockey gods hearing our complaints of lacking enforcers and saying "hold my Molson". He really is a throwback.
Right
No.
Yeah Elbowing players don't make you an enforcer. If we wanted a player like that we'd take back Todd Bertuzzi
@@Imnotactuallyadrinker elbowed like one guy and he paid the price for it and hasnt done it since cry more i beg you

Gotta enjoy the little things in life!
This is one of the best video titles I've seen on this site
He’s practically levitating. Deserves 3 games.
Thank you Max app for bringing hockey into our home.
Ovi was so far behind the play, he was watching the replay.
The hit on Oshie was clean, solid; the hit on Van Riemsdyk was borderline. Two mins is accurate. Been frustrating rooting for the Caps this series; Shesterkin gobbles up any of their chances to get back in the game, great tending from Igor.
I'm sure it's easy when your opponent gets penalized for existing
Props to Oshie for defending the hit by Panarin. Rempe’s hits have been 50/50 which means he has to avoid those
@@Imnotactuallyadrinker there’s some ignorant takes in here but this one is next level. Well done!
Other than the first softie he let in... Igor is so good.

Interference penalty was a complete joke.
With every passing game in this series, I am reminded that the final playoff spot belongs to Detroit, NOT Washington. I know the Rangers are a good team, but Washington is putting up no fight at all - they look like a bunch of elderly bums out there
8 the great. Don't wake up the old gray bear. Let him sleep peacefully
He just looks disinterested. Honestly seems like he is standing around waiting for the series to be over.
The Rangers was the only 1st Round sweep I predicted so that's going really well for me right now.

.4 of a second. Not even a half a second after he drop passed the puck.

Seemed to be off the ice on impact. That is boarding at minimum.
Yeah, I didn't notice that at first, but if you go back and look at it in slow mo he is off the ice a few inches.

Washington isn't going to be out for anything. The only thing that Washongton will be out of is the playoffs. Teams garbage.
Y’all have been saying this every game and he hasn’t done shit
@@Max-xz9xw Rempe and Lindgren (Ryan) wouldn't fight even though he challenged both.
the only thing dirty was the lateness of it even then there are worse late hits
@chrishaughton1747 Yeah maybe this year. We have pretty much taken the Rangers' lunch money for the last decade. Enjoy your moment
Byfields on McDavid the other night was just as big.
I'm trying out for a team rn and took a slapshot in warmup to the mask (goalie). I don't know if I have a concussion, but if I do this is probably the worst thing that could have happened. This is my only chance, and now I'm feeling a little off after that puck (played bad in the scrimmage after too, like a deer in headlights). Eck, what do I do?
See a doctor who can diagnose if you have a concussion or not. No tryout to start the season on any team is worth the potential long term damage if you did get one, and if you didn't it will put your mind at ease and allow you to play your best
Dude, see a doctor. Don't ask in CZcams comments.
@@igmusicandflying goalies, smh
@@hankfairchild7951 🤣 bless their little hearts.
@@igmusicandflying I must have been out of my mind writing this. I don't know why I asked on CZcams lmao. I spoke to my doctor and she thinks I'm alright to keep playing, so thanks for talking some sense into me, guys!
EDIT: shortly after being told this, I began to have some symptoms, which changed my doctor's opinion. I did not continue to play.
They just need a quick series, even 5 games. Those 7 game series were our downfall 2 years ago against TB. But at this point just close out Washington and get rested for Carolina, who should finish off the Asslanders.
The Rangers didn't take too many penalties, the refs outright did their darndest to keep Washington in the game. 5-6 calls were complete nonsense.
I’m definitely concerned about the penalties. I’m happy with the probably sweep, but they can’t play like this against a team like Carolina.
I'm thinking Vegas vs Florida again in the final. Obvious pick, I know. As a NJD fan I watched my team struggle with the "how to win" learning curve this year. For example, they often beat good teams and lost to bad teams. They have a long road. Vegas and Florida are veteran teams, built for this, and they have figured out what it takes.
a lot of penalties called and almost as many NOT called. I think twice the Caps players took obvious dives that weren't called. the Lindgren "crosscheck" was a joke.
Officiating has been baffling. A lot of stuff that should have been called wasn't, and vice versa. Neither team will be walking away from this series happy with the refs.
Knew Caps would crap the bed. They werent really that good this year. I feel Pens would have probably met the same fate but woulda been more competitive
I agree, if they don't step up their game and disciplined play, Carolina is going to eat them alive.
I honestly didn't even remember the Thrashers making the playoffs....They were always such a forgettable team to me.
Capital fans are hoping that presidents award curse kicks in
Anytime a d-man makes the reverse pass play, the player can leave himself vulnerable. Unfortunately, a train was coming. Two minutes for being big.
Just to get fucking bounced by Carolina 😂😂😂
REMPE has learn to keep his elbows IN AND DOWN LIKE PETER MAHOVOLICH had to .
Being tall can be a curse with skates on 🤔
He did have his elbows in. He does have to learn how to hit lower. Everything hip checks because they're shoulder checks on the opponent.
Do you remember that time in the game when Ovetchkin almost made a play? Me either.
That Rempe hit was clean asf, the Panarin hit was dirtier i atill think it was a good hit. I have no stakes in any of these games in a pens fan very neutral both hits were clean its playoff hockey
The only people who think the Rempe hit was dirty are caps fans, you know, the ones who believe Tom Wilson can do no wrong. 😂
Can we talk about how Edmonton and LA game last night had 92 PIM 💀
You never covered the Oilers la game the other night
Sure was nice for NY that Washington kept giving them a 5 on 4 every time Ovi is on the Ice.
Rempe is getting the Chara treatment.
That was a in the neighborhood hit. It was clean.
it was a clean hit and not late, bad call on ref's part. WSH has no answer to Rempe
Maybe I need my eyes checked because I thought both hits were dirty lol
On the MSG feed you could hear someone yelling at TVR, you know Rempe is out there, he dumped the puck and was looking at his skates. All things you are taught not to do, he had speed to get around the net and the check wouldve missed or Rempe's big goofy ass would've lost his edge.
The refs in the series have been terrible. Soft calls on both sides and missed calls on both sides, obviously they'll target the Rangers more because they have more physical players but 2nd round better not be like this
i cant believe they called that a penalty. theyre going to call one everytime he touches someone.
How about that Edmonton game huh?
I've said all season though our PPK is our strongest line.
I'm not sure if I'd call that a penalty or not. It was a big hit by Rempe, but he didn't really jump, and the principle point of contact wasn't the head. Honestly, his lower body hit Van Riemsdyk in the lower body first and he started to fall backwards. Rempe slammed into the glass, and didn't hit Van Riemsdyk in the head or even the upper body for the most part.
The capitals look like they just flat out don’t give a sh$t about winning at all, making the playoffs was their cup
I can't remember such a WEAK team being in the playoffs...
They really shouldn't be there.
You better lookout for the rempire state building
"Me want eat!!!"
Neutral fan here I didn’t think it was late and yes, hes fun to watch but she
tbh i don't understand, i thought the rempe hit was charging not interference, and i thought the controversial hit on oshie was about hitting his head, not interference. even though it was more interference than the rempe hit and yet had no call and the rempe one did. and i thought the rempe hit had more head contact than the oshie hit. arent players supposed to be suspended for hitting the head? is that still a thing? idk i don't understand any of this
Watch the Leafs Bruins game. Always the toughest evenly matched series year in year out.
Wont be surprised if Rempe ends the career of someone.
I would like to see Rempe and Lemieux fight
This guy is a menace and should not be lauded as an enforcer. He is intentionally using his size as an excuse to injure other players. Shame on the Rangers for encouraging this goon.
Shesterkin redeemed himself at least.
FYI....Avs had 40 shots on net tonight.
I watch your stuff all the time, but the title made me click immediately
Someone is always bigger and can hit harder. Rempe is gonna get his eventually
Olivier wiped the ice w him it was hilarious
@@liljoe31he pussed out of the fight with Wilson.
Hank explained that early shesty goal, it hit a stick on its way so it had a weird path and just…didn’t go where it should have? It looks so bad if u don’t see the stick contact. Anyways, the second this game started I was like yeah…this one’s boring isn’t it.
This dude hasn't made a single video on the Panthers vs Lightning series despite it being a banger. He does this to the Panthers during the regular season too. It's really pathetic.
