Matt Rempe Set To Face Massive Suspension After Dangerous Hit
The atmosphere at Madison Square Garden turned chaotic as tensions flared during the New York Rangers' matchup against the New Jersey Devils.
In a heated moment, Rangers forward Matt Rempe was ejected from the game and slapped with a five-minute major penalty for elbowing Devils defenseman Jonas Siegenthaler.
Throughout the game, Rempe had been at the center of attention, notably avoiding confrontations with Devils winger Kurtis MacDermid. The situation reached a boiling point when Rempe's elbow connected with Siegenthaler, sparking chaos on the ice.
Despite attempts by MacDermid to seek retaliation, officials swiftly intervened to prevent further escalation.
Video footage captures the intensity of the moment, including Rempe's provocative gesture as he exits the ice, waving 'bye bye' to the Devils.
While it's clear Rempe's actions may lead to disciplinary action from NHL Player Safety, the extent of the consequences remains uncertain. Stay tuned for updates on Rempe's potential suspension.
