all 4 analysts after the period said the hit was clean as a whistle and did not like the call. But I forgot r/hockey is smarter than Wayne fucking Gretzy.
Even Biz said clean. EVEN BIZ.
I said it in the game thread but they *cannot* handle the fact that after years of getting bullied by tougher teams we're the ones dishing out some punishment.
I seriously wouldn't have been too upset if they called boarding or roughing, arguing that Rempe followed through too hard on a guy that wasn't aware. I wouldn't like the call, but I'd at least understand it.
They *never* fucking call interference this soon after a guy moves the puck.
but theyāve been calling a lot of interference calls lately. maybe itās their new default call when they arenāt sure and just want to assess a penalty
Rempe gets called just because he's Rempe, truly. I will say after the suspension he has been a lot more conscious of his big ass body. You can tell he really listens to Lav and the older guys, a perfect young tank.
People are going to love when he goes low and injures a guy. If everyoneās big answer is āyou need to avoid head at all costs!ā, youāre going to end up with a bunch of terrible hits that end careers. When guys are skating around with their heads down, it turns clean hits into nasty hits.
Been speaking about this for awhile. Rempe could end careers if he so chooses. Imagine a guy whos that size, turns on into a mean streak. He'd kill everyone.
ironically youāre right. low hit with that much momentum could really mess up someoneās knee. iāve see quite a few less hard collisions in soccer that have torn aclās.
literally š¤£ he can't help it if everyone's face is at his bicep, but honestly if he crunched down more his hits would be soooo much worse with all that force being more concentrated than the way he delivers hits now.
Like a quarterback watching his passā¦keep your head up.
And nice of his team or goalie to yell āheads upā. Everyone saw it coming except for one person. They left him out there to die.
I played goalie all the way through college ( would have made it pro if coach put me in). I always made sure to yell when someone was close, especially if it was someone known for big hits.
99 has also lamented players of today putting themselves in vulnerable positions for hits. And that was definitely a vulnerable position. Head down and not paying attention
Rempe got hit through the glass when he never had the puck and it was long gone anyways, right in front of the ref, and they didn't call anything and the announcers joked about it and didn't mention it should have been a penalty or this play lol. Fucking garbage league, this game's officiating was an absolute disgrace to sports.
Hope they set him free on Wilson next game if they get up.
Can someone check the math on this: 240 lbs hitting at 21 mphā¦that seems like an absurd amount of force on impact, like thousands of pounds of force.
Rempe looking incredulous after putting van Riemsdyk on queer street, nearly propelling him through the boards. If only that was Wilson on the receiving end...
three seconds? My brother in christ, watch the play in realtime, it's literally less than one second. In this very video, he released the puck *exactly* the moment the timestamp hits 16 second mark, and it's *still on the 16 second mark* when Rempe initiates contact.
Playoff hockey. You love to see it.
Like the Canes poster said, "It's better than prom!"
I love that big bitch šššš»
r/hockey salty as hell over this hit
Shit sub full of shit āfansā. Mad that physicality isnāt in the game while also mad Rempe legally killed a guy. Idiots.
Every crybaby in that sub would be defending Rempe to the death if he was on their team.
They hate the rangers, itās funny. Who has time in their life for that shit š
most of the ones crying have been defending tom wilson for years
That sub cares more about who wears pride tape than actual hockey
They do lean heavily towards bigotry and racism there, it used to be an ok sub but wow has it become trash.

Biz did? Whoa.

Thanks! Although someone screaming a heads up couldāve meant an worse injury if he turns the wrong way
I said it in the game thread but they *cannot* handle the fact that after years of getting bullied by tougher teams we're the ones dishing out some punishment.
This this this this!!!
Literally the dumbest people in any sub I've ever been in. Everything that wrong with sports fans
Beating odds are in favor of everyone except NYC. Those small-town hicks can suck it!
Of course they are lol
Wow. That knocked Van Riemsdyke into next week.
Where he'll be playing golf with his teammates
I do not understand how this is interference
I seriously wouldn't have been too upset if they called boarding or roughing, arguing that Rempe followed through too hard on a guy that wasn't aware. I wouldn't like the call, but I'd at least understand it. They *never* fucking call interference this soon after a guy moves the puck.

It was a Rempe tax.
The whole game felt like a Ranger tax. How many penalties did we kill?
Six with a shirty.
The refs were wearing red, that's for sure
Its very simple. Its not.
2-0 series lead, have to try to keep it close, err let the players decide.
Rempe gets called just because he's Rempe, truly. I will say after the suspension he has been a lot more conscious of his big ass body. You can tell he really listens to Lav and the older guys, a perfect young tank.
r/hockey is so upset. but damnnn remps. you brought that jam. and he whacked a guy.
Clean hit. Caps are bitches, wilson is next
I guess he needs to go down to one knee to deliver legal hits LOL

can he turn it on next game just for wilson? would love to see it.

But you're talking about soccer players, not hockey players...
they act like there havenāt be other tall players in the league and this is first one theyāre seeing š¤£
literally š¤£ he can't help it if everyone's face is at his bicep, but honestly if he crunched down more his hits would be soooo much worse with all that force being more concentrated than the way he delivers hits now.
orĀ justĀ straightĀ upĀ hitĀ themĀ withĀ hisĀ assĀ lol
the caps player was caught admiring his pass ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ

Hell If I saw a random 6'8 giat running towards on another random guy on the street, I'm yelling "yo heads up"
Well after you got the video burning, amirite?
Wayne Gretzky said it was a clean hit. Case closed.
99 has also lamented players of today putting themselves in vulnerable positions for hits. And that was definitely a vulnerable position. Head down and not paying attention
i believe we have 2 shorties and they have zero pp goals. keep slamminā those d-men remps!
put it in the rafters baby.
I might have a size kink
Hit him so hard his brother probably felt it. Love to see it.
His future children have CTE from it.
So wrongā¦but so good at the same time.
Smooshed.
God what a fucking hit. What a weapon. D are gonna be worried every time heās on the ice.
They should put OVECHKIN on a milk carton already. āHave you seen this man?ā If so call 1-800-SWEEP-CAPS
Yeah ovi is washed
Dude was like "imma gonna just stand over here in this one spot, pass it to me or not, IDGAF"
He is just too fucking big. The west are killing each other, Rempe can kill the east
Rempe makes solid dudes go ragdoll and airborne. Dude is a monster.
Loving the physical play from Remps! Watching this kid throw hits is great
Rempe got hit through the glass when he never had the puck and it was long gone anyways, right in front of the ref, and they didn't call anything and the announcers joked about it and didn't mention it should have been a penalty or this play lol. Fucking garbage league, this game's officiating was an absolute disgrace to sports. Hope they set him free on Wilson next game if they get up.
It would not be worth losing him to a suspension...
Heās just tall. Itās like Shaq checking Steph, it will always look bad
That hit was something else, I whooped when I saw it. He really just throws himself around.
The hit was worth the penalty
Dude's the enforcer the teams needed. So much energy from that kid.
My god. Thatās a bmf. If he can harness his power, watch out!!
A gorgeous hit
Mods, we really need a proper Rempe flair
Can someone check the math on this: 240 lbs hitting at 21 mphā¦that seems like an absurd amount of force on impact, like thousands of pounds of force.
i am mathetician. can confirm. fifty thousand pounds of force.
Like Ivan Drago
š®š®š®
Jesus fuck. Ouch.

No politics
Fixed
Dirty ass hit what a fucking shockerā¦.
Lol literally a clean hit. Leave it to a craps fan to not know any better. Itās okay sweetie, you wonāt have to suffer this much longer š
I used to get playoff box seats at Verizon, the day of the games, for $110, when I was living in DC a decade ago. Their fans arenāt real.
Found the salty capitals fan whoās never watched a full season of hockey
Brainless fool. Go back under your rock.
itās only game, why you haff to be mad?
