In order to become a regular in the Rangers’ rotation, Rempe will have to earn that position and show Laviolette that he can play all sides of the puck at a consistent level. Plus, Rempe will see his time in the lineup and that will be his chance to prove himself.

Matt Rempe spent a few days over the summer on the ice with retired enforcer Georges Laraque learning the finer points of fighting.

The Rangers will open the 2023-24 season in Pittsburgh with three rookies on their roster. Matt Rempe, Adam Edstrom and Victor Mancini officially made the Blueshirts out of training camp for the first time in all three of their respective careers.

It was a busy offseason for New York Rangers forward Matt Rempe, a sudden celebrity of sorts around Manhattan, who captured the hearts of fans for his penchant for fighting and riling up the opponent.

Adam Edström, Matt Rempe and Victor Mancini are all expected to make the team and be on the Rangers’ opening night roster. Just landed in Pittsburgh to news that #NYR recalled Will Cuylle, Matt Rempe, Adam Edström and Victor Mancini from Hartford. Blidh, Harpur, Leschyshyn, Robertson, Sýkora assigned to Wolf Pack.

There is a growing sense that Victor Mancini will be on the New York Rangers’ opening night roster. Mancini has had a strong training camp and took full advantage of his opportunity. He’s really outshined all of the other young defensive prospects who were eying a roster spot and worked his way up the depth chart just based on his overall play.
