- Matt Rempe is a beast, he took on Ryan Reaves, Nick Deslauriers, Olivier, and Matt Martin. The New York Rangers vs Toronto Maple Leafs was a great game and Max Domi ended up winning it. Rempe fought Reaves and did quite well. He's bringing back fighting in the NHL, gotta love it!

He is definitely front-runner for the CTE trophy
smart comment go to work bud
@@sunshinemybrain9042lol ok bum
Taking runs at guys ....doing the gestures to the crowd after his fight with Martin. The kid put the target on his own back. He can't expect the league to give him a break because he got his face blasted by Olivier.
i dont think he expects any break
@@tdwz1652 I don't think so either. And he definitely needs one.
@@tdwz1652 hes too young to realize the negative impact he is doing to himself.
@@gavinnniroopan9089reeves fought 10 times in his first 20 games
You got to be a bit worried. Boys a punch bag
U can’t charge a guy and put him out of the game and not answer the bell, regardless of some bruises. If he didn’t want to fight he shouldn’t be trying to flat line guys. I’m not a leafs fan but he should have been called for leaving his feet.
That's the only thing he brings to the table, look at his junior stats lmao not sure he's gonna have a long career like Xhekaj project to
Karen
@@philmacdonald7857 is that your wife ? Karen - reaves was a ranger he can’t play years ago when the league had tough guys he was a punching bag
Lol he DID answer the bell. The guy's been fighting the top enforcer of every team he plays. Reaves caught him at the end of his shift(that's against the "code"), and he was gassed! But he still fought.
@RB12377 cry
It looked like a clear charge where the player left his feet. You kinda put a target on your back after that, no?.
Cope more
Yeah, non-partisan here, don't care about either team, but that was three steps. A charge as far as I know.
Was there a penalty?
@RB12377 leafs fan here. No there wasn't. Our guy misses 5 games because he did something similar with a cross check. Player didn't get injured.
There's no penalty when you injure the maple leafs. I want Radko Gudas. We need a shit disturber. Or fuck I'd take rempe if he doesn't make players leave the ice like that.
I love antagonistic hockey. But I don't like winning games by injuring players to weaken a team. Even if it's us doing it. I don't want a cup win in a game 7 because we brutally injured all the stars. Unless it's defensive and retaliatory to teach respect it makes your team look too weak to win with skill.
Matt Rempe looked at the bench before accepting the fight. I wonder if the coach forgot he is managing a 21 year old 7 games NHL experience player with tire marks on his face. The guy is going to burn his career at this pace.
Well put. Agreed
It will slow down don’t worry
@@alexjaeger566 Before or after a major injury such as concussion or broken fist....someone has to take care of the kid.
I noticed this. It seemed to me that the bench was telling him not to do it.
@@jonathanmazzuca5015 That is the mystery. I din't get the full view of the Bench. During the game at least once Matt got away from a fight challenge probably as per the coaches desire to win the game. I am speculating from the few scenes I saw.
Everyone seems so worried and concerned for him… everyone other than himself lol.. let him do what he wants, nobody forcing him to fight
That's because he's 21 and thinks he is invincible. But you're right, it's his choice.
@@a7xSkateboarding who cares. Is this really more dangerous then boxing or UFC. Ppl do dangerous shit for money it's not new and it won't ever stop. There are far more dangerous jobs with lower pay go save them
You would think a strong gust of wind causes CTE with the way the internet has been talking. Dude should be fine, let him start his NHL career with a bang. It’s going to slow down, it’s inevitable. People just love to parrot what they hear.
who's concerned for him? show me a single comment. i dare you.
@@stevenbrodeur3023 "it's okay to give people conkies because he'll do it less later on" are you actually wetawded?
Throw a dirty hit, you better be prepared to fight. That target was put there by Rempe himself. Almost 7 feet tall, jumping into hits
Dirty Hit? That's laughable. Speaking of dirty, how's your mom?
😂😂😂😂
Even if you want to say he won one of the fights .he's getting lumped up.he's taken some the cleanest hard punches he says he is good to go, head shots accumemulate .he won't last.
Scared...The kid isn't scared by anyone..he is taken on the real tough guys, he is not picking his fights. He needs to tone it down and get more games under his belt, though..I would like to see him around for a while.
Not picking his fights? He’s injured 2 players in 7 games due to dirty hits. That tells you what kind of player he is. I respect him for taking the fights and not avoided them like a rat. But he deserved the black eyes and bruises he had for playing dirty.
I thought all the pre-game hype about Rempe vs Reaves was just dumb noise, to be honest. Hockey media desperate for a story. But once Rempe range Boosh's bells with that hit and injured him on his first game as a Leaf, there was no scenario where that game wouldn't end with a fight.
If no one on the Leafs had acted after that, we would have been having a VERY different conversation regarding the team.
you came for wool and you came out shorn 😂😂 good job Reaves
Reaves doesn't even look like he really did anything 😅
It was a draw at best reeves on his way out this kid will be around for awhile
Reeves. Sad, like Brashears sad.
Big mouth Reeves was eating short lefts the whole time and could barely even reach Rempe. He landed one shot to the helmet, lol. What a POS goon.
He didn't. All he did was eat short lefts and then celebrate like he dropped him. POS.@@TokyoChopSquad
He laid a bit of a dirty hit on Boosh so it was coming. Glad to see Reaves sticking up for the new guy.
it was a clean hit
Reaves is a goon
reaves was not sticking up for anyone other than himself, showing he has relevance to play with the team.
@@brianolson1211 wtf are you talking about. Like you would know. Take a hike troll.
Fighting aside, I'm sick of Reaves many minor penalties and the power play goals that result from them 😠 He is a liability.
Dude is definitely not scared but maybe a bit too eager for his own good. That just isn't sustainable if you want a long healthy happy life. CTE is no joke.
His dome got cracked he's going to end up like Boogaard.
Rempe now looks like he flew through a windshield...my advice to him for wot it's worth- take March off, rest yer face and then take a few lessons on avoidance of those 100 lb shots you've been eating...
He didnt have to fight Reaves until he hit Lyubushkin. After that hit he had to answer for it.
Rempe is already notorious. His jumped Lyubushkin. Why was there no call? To keep the crowd quiet?
Are you asking me why there was no call? How the hell would I know?
What I don’t like about the hit, was it was a clear 3 stride before impact. Extra long charge. Should be looked at, it was intentional. Wreck less guy has to learn.
Rempe clearly had a concussion from his last fight. He's getting reckless on the ice. This needs to stop now.
I guess everyone forgot the years of 20+ fights in a season
Kid will end up just like Derek Boogaard if he’s not careful.
I'm worried about him. I played minor hockey and dealt with lots of blows cannot imagine what these guys go thru times 100
I started buying fight tapes in 1984, and always have been a fan of a good scrap, but the gladiator movement to bigger and less skilled players was not part of the game as I viewed it. Two guys playing a shift and making some play that brings them to fight is pure, and more interesting anyway. But this kid is risking his future life to provide a throwback to the days of death. His teammates need to step in and give him a break. I cant believe he was back so quickly after he got knocked loppy in the Olivier fight. Sorry, not good, IMHO.
HAHAHAHAHA this has to be a joke
Next fight Arber Xhekaj
The Rangers don't play Montreal until April 7th so he will probably have a few fights before that.
Xhekaj is no stupid goon so maybe not
Next fight Kurtis MacDermid...11 March
Dustin Byfuglien knew to let up when hammering opposing players into the boards, because if he didn't, he would be sent to the box, and for good reason - half the players on the opposing team would have otherwise been hauled off on stretchers. The same rules should apply to Rempe.
Reeves, the POS goon, has run more people than this kid ever will.
You can clearly see Homeboy telling Reaves "okay I've had enough" at the end, so obvious.
That's why Reaves nodded his head
The "NHL's BIGGEST Target" is self induced. Someone will stretch him out before season ends. Revo beat him, but Olivier beat him up.
Are you on drugs? He did not lose his fight every punch Reeves through hit him he was wearing a helmet. I bet it hurt him more than Rimp
reaves did not win this fight if i’m generous it’s a draw
Match him up with Xhekaj so he can get a matching pair of black eyes.
Lol
Dont need to match him up.Hes motivated and ready.
You know it's the NHL not the UFC right? They don't "match them up" in the NHL,. The Rangers don't play Montreal until April 7th so it'll be a few weeks and about 16 games before they "match them up"
@@ScreaminSeamen you match up lines. are you learning impaired? HAHAHAHAHA
@psychwardsandscene sure that's what he meant. Match up a winger with a defenseman. I'm sure that's where he was going with it. Considering earlier in the comments it was suggested he should fight Xhekaj next....I guess they were talking about matching his line there too right?
Rempe is a dawg but also going for that CTE speedrun 🤣 being so young and still holding his hold tho I respect it lol
Less chance of cte bare knuckles over boxing gloves
Next Fight vs DOPS for leaving his feet on that 🗑 hit and for fighting 🤜🤛 nonstop too many times
The long runway and jump off his feet on that hit is not cool...sending Lyubushkin out on his first game back with the Leafs and no suspension called. The refs and Commissioner Bettman continue to get this wrong - the NHL is such a farce..
Rempe is going to be brain dead within a few more weeks. Doesn't matter if he's winning or losing his fights because he is taking a lot hard hits to his head. He is nothing more than a tall punching bag at this point. If he didn't really want the fight then he shouldn't lay a dirty hit on an opposing player.
What is Ryan Reaves still doing in the league?
Playing the role of enforcer! Which is still necessary in the league, especially come playoff time
@@thomas7919 The enforcer role is obsolete in the playoffs. There are basically no fights in playoff hockey.
@@thomas7919 for the Leafs, “playoff time” means 7 games max, and for that they’re dragging this idiot around all year.
Agreed. He's taken innumerable stupid penalties that have resulted in goals against.
Punishing Matt Rempe
Coach should of called him to the bench, there was no reason for him to fight.
They tied the game after he got the lads going with this fight, so yes there was. Fighting can be strategic in this sport. It's not always punative... though in this case, it was both.
The Reaves fight was pretty even but RR definitely landed 2-3 solid shots to the mouth and took the decision
that was the end for Reaves.....no one is afraid of him any more....fought a draw with a rookie...Reaves is a non factor.
if anything a draw no way reaves won , they guy rarely wins a fight anymore i liked him as a ranger but to be honest he was useless he was never a deterrent and only fight for himself never came to a teammate aid
@@thefishhobbyist5478 either you’re lying to yourself or u didn’t actually see the fight. Regardless chill with the unnecessary clown comments
Another stupid post. Man haters sure don’t mind being wrong and looking stupid, as long as they can bash the leafs, one way or another.
@@richardspinosa6277no way reeves won, even though he landed more blows and was literally asked by the kid to stop the fight.
So funny when bias and stupidity get in a crossfire
This guy fully represents the old "I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out" joke.
It will take a toll, and quickly at this pace.
This young man might single handedly bring back the enforcer roll. True hockey. 4 bouts in first 5 games?? Game winning goal?? And he's been scrapping some gonns
Imagine if they taught him how to fight.
What a monster he would be.
Honestly my hands wouldn't hold up against this monster.
The way those haymakers just stop on his face is so impressive.
He's got a few HP left.
Soon he will be in special ed with Eric Lindros
My heart bro
There was that hit, and momentum was needed going in the Rags direction, regarding the time left in the 3rd. 2 reasons to chuck em, right there
More fighting in hockey means more fans. This is great!!!
Reminds me of hockey in the 90's 😊
He wont be able to count to ten by the end of the season !
Karma's going to get back at Rempe for that hit on Lyubushkin...heard it here first
It makes sense to have fights closer to the end of the game. That way you get to play the whole thing out, maybe score a goal or get an assist, be a physical help to your team. Getting a misconduct right off the bat is shitty for the players involved.
the guy came in for his first matches and gave us the 3 or 4 longest heavyweight worthy fight in nhl in years
Nah, the tough guys/enforcers are welcoming the rookie, and new challenger, with closed fists to his face.
Philly played the fight bell when he dropped the gloves there...stay classy Philly and never change. 🤣
Great addition the the Rangers team making them legit contenders for the Stanely Cup!
I watched this game and to me I felt Rempe didn’t want to fight but did fight after checking with the bench. I really think he looked tired and defeated before actually fighting Reeves. I’m hoping the few days off helps Rempe recover and not have to fight for a while.
Concussions from fighting in the nhl... let’s save these guys.
GOON
It’s good for Rempe that the Rangers don’t play again for several days, he’ll get a break from the fighting.
Respect but wow man it’ll be a short career and a rough retirement if this pace keeps up.
If he needs a break he can look forward to the suspension he deserves for that dirty hit on Boosh
Fucking ridiculous that fighting has taken on a new life in the league to this degree. Do people already forget brain injuries, depression and suicides due to this?
The older I get, the more I tend to agree with you. But then there is still boxing and MMA so..
Go watch women's ⚽ then pal
@@Fish-Erman I hear ya but the entire purpose of those sports is to knock the other person out ideally. I also find them ridiculous.
@@Fish-Erman the other thing with boxing / MMA is nobody is signing up to do it multiple times a week
@@adam_c_music How about you go play in the traffic.
It seems hockey players grab the jerseys of the person they are fighting to keep them at bay. But, they’d be better off using the hold to pull that person toward them as they’re delivering the punch.
id love to see him fight arber on the habs.
Rempe can actually play a bit. He's a decent skater, doesn't panic a the puck. He has great respect from his team mates. Arber would probably take hi, Xhekaj is probably the best fighter in the game@crimewatchers1
100% textbook charging penalty. & im a canucks fan who hates the leafs. clear charging
Finally a big boy that can throw his weight around . ☆☆☆☆keep it up ☆☆☆need more good battles ☆☆☆
Love You REMPE For Steppin Up, Much Respect, Why? Cause Guys Always Like A Nice Show In The Show And You Hand Out Whoopins To Those That Don't Know You, But Fuck Around And Find. What Do You Call Those Bombs That Your Droppin, Cause I Seen A Few Different Techniques.
"he's on about 3 hp at this point" hahahah
You’re the Biggest Target because “You Make Yourself” the biggest target. The kids a very low draftee and 4th liner at about 7 minutes per game. He’s gonna get hurt when he leads with his chin. Rempe is lucky Reaves took it easy on him. He’s gonna get hurt, and that when the media will do an about face and wail that he shouldn’t have been fighting.
Reaves was giving everything he had buddy, Reaves can barely skate without falling, guys a fckn joke. That’s why every team drops his stupid ass every year cuz they see he’s just a waste
The scary thing is I think that was the most cautious i've seen that kid and he still didn't seem worried about his chin. It's good thing they stopped when they did. That's a good way to end up asleep on the ice.
@@Soul-assasin93 ..for his sake let’s hope he doesn’t learn the hard way.
I think Reaves’ nod at the end of the fight was his way of recognizing the kid’s potential, but I think Reaves restrained himself a bit in this fight.
He would find out what to learn about this after series of fight.
Hah, hah!!! Oliver F'ed you up!!! This kid will lead the league in concussions this year. Congratz!
He should have been called for charging on the Lyubushkin hit.
Well, he is going to be running into Deslauriers again and he plays Wifi in April.
Less fighting, more hard checking. Better for him and the Rangers.
Needs to learn how to check first. Shouldn't be leaving his feet when he's already 6'8"...
If he stops leaving his feet to hit people high he might not get called out every game.
Predatory head hits end 10 times the careers fights do you boob. More fighting, less head hunting.
Keep fightin’, kid. It worked out well for Derek Boogaard, right?
Rempe biggest problem will be any aging player who justifies his roster spot by fighting to spark his team will target Rempe because they know he won't say no. He can expect regular visits to his neurologist by age of 30.
The hit was charging, explicitly in the NHL rules what he did was charging. Ilya most likely will go through concussion protocols and subsequent care and precaution. Rempe left the ice, hurt Lybushkin, and had it coming.
The thing with Reaves is simple. Last season Gudas and Bennett took liberties, and those included knocking Knies out of the playoffs. With the right grit and a guy like Reaves, any behaviour like that will be challenged. I love old-time hockey, but when you sit back and let your guys get hurt without any response, you set yourselves up as weak, and you lose any respect; I am hoping Reaves changes this.
Firecracker !
Reaves. His name is what he does
I think the league should step in. This kid is going to be eating his suppers through a straw for the rest of his life.
matt rempe is like a custome chacter in nhl
When he injures your teammates no matter how many hits to the head he has.buckets are gonna😂 spin
Flies in, leaves his feet, shoulder hit to head and gets nothing. Reilly would have been suspended for 6 months if he had done that. WHAT A FARCE.
He’s 6’8 unintentional head contact is very likely ,left his feet cuz they hit buddy’s skates when he was coming in for the hit if you look close. have you ever played or even officiated a game of hockey, there’s a lot of factors to be considered. Like speaking fairly most goalies should have assault charges for the amount of slashes they dish out.
@@NobodyLeft-_- Dude... get your homer glasses off. That's a greasy hit all damn day.
@itzcheez6555 yo.....you are soooo wrong my friend. Total head contact. Now if you want my hockey hockey background, I'll fill you in.....played for 46 yrs, 5 yrs of semi pro, coached for the last 23 yrs and collect a paycheck from the team I coach every week. I have been a licensed official for 15 yrs.
So you could have called a head check, feet were off the ground before contact was made...or charging for the 5 plus strides he takes before making contact, and maybe even borderline boarding call.
Same as his dirty hit he threw in the devils game....left his feet.
You are as much of a joke as rempe is if you seriously believe what you posted. Sit back down in your lazy boy....armchair super star!!!!
If Rempe had hit him about 7 to 8 seconds after the whistle he probably gets a large suspension.
Yup... shame on Buttman for being so biased against the Leafs
The guy should call up the legendary 6'-8" John Scott and ask for fighting pointers.
It's not as exciting to fight someone if you're not really mad at them , but social media expects it.
Stay Healthy Rempe. Youre a good young kid. I dont wanna see you get hurt. Kill the noise. Pick your battles
charging, wow
lol yep and Ref even moved out of the way to let it happen as he watched...then no teammates came to Boush defence, sad sad sad
Yeah left his feet there
he should fight zach bogosian on the wild
With what we know now about concussions, why? What the Rangers are doing with this kid borders on criminal.
Need a break?? Back in the 80's and 90s, guys like Bobby Probert were fighting constantly and didn't take "breaks."
The Hansen brothers are telling him to calm the f down😅
I kinda want to see him take on deangalo in pnc arena
He maybe should’ve not ran Boosh like that if he didn’t want to fight….
He aint going to last playing this way
This kid is going to fight his way into brain trauma. He should watch the documentary about Derek Boogaard, who's life ended tragically in an overdose of pain killers and brain trauma issues. This could end up being one very sad and tragic story...
Nice Vid bro
Thanks man 🙏🏽
I'm I'm glad I'm not the only one. This kids doing what he's got to do but if you've been I've been on the planet 57 years and I've seen these guys use themselves up rather quickly and the story never ends well it never does. He's exciting the fights are fun to watch but every single night he's going to get used up man He's going to get used up quick
Rempe the best! he must earn good money.
That's your opinion and you're welcome to it. I always hoped that fighting would disappear, that hockey team owners would decide that the game no longer needed goons to make it entertaining. Hockey with fighting is as exciting to watch as cars going around and around on an oval track or paint, drying on a wall.
Rempe needs to learn how not to lead with his face.
Would have love him taking on George Laraque, Tie Domy...
Rempe's hits are often high, and he like's to use his elbow, this may be partially due to his height, but either way, you hit like he does, you have to know someone is going to want to even the score, i would like to see him tone it down some, and maybe just go after guys who run your star player's instead of making himself the target every game.
This young man keeps running people n fighting every other day he won't be in NHL very long or he'll be another boogard
I definitely think Laviolette told Rempe not to fight last night, because Rempe ignored Reaves the whole game, and then before the fight finally happened Rempe stopped and looked at the bench to get approval.
Rempe was talking to Reaves during warmups. Just like he did with Olivier before getting his butt handed to him.
Do u remember a guy named Milan lucic? He was 19 beating everyone
He's a big low scoring 4th liner. He doing exactly what he was called up to do. A rest means going to the minor. He's going to fight to stay in the show. I would too
Just because you’re big it doesn’t mean you can fight!!!
no but it usually means people are gonna test you and it also means you have a hell of a reach advantage. That kid is tough
DOMI! DOMI!
