Matt Rempe is a fan favorite for the New York Rangers, admired for his tough playing style and his appeal to female supporters. However, he hasn’t received much playing time lately, which has frustrated fans and some journalists. Larry Brooks from the New York Post recently highlighted this issue, questioning why Rempe is not in the lineup after limited minutes in a recent overtime loss to Utah and being a healthy scratch for the previous game against Pittsburgh. He expressed confusion over the situation, stating, “I don’t understand why Big Matt Rempe is sitting out after only getting 3:40 on Saturday when he could be playing instead of Jonny Brodzinski, who has taken his place in two of the first three games this season.” Brooks emphasizes that while he respects Brodzinski’s talent and performance, he raises the point about which player would be more intimidating for upcoming matchups against challenging opponents like the Florida Panthers.
