Rempe adds a very necessary physical factor the Rangers have lacked for a long time. When Laviolette unleashed him, during the regular season, he took on the league's best goons for a reason; to send a message that the days of intimidating the Rangers, during the playoffs, are over.
Bring on the "paper champions" and thank you, Isles and their fans, for tenderizing them up, a bit, for the home cookin' at the Garden next week!
Peace!
I watched all 5 games and we did almost nothing to tenderize them. They skated all over the Islanders and made them look like they didn't belong in the playoffs. The one win was a miracle. I think you are underestimating them.
The rest of the Eastern Conference contenders should have put a claim in on Kuznetsov when he was waived. Brilliant move by the Canes who got home pennies on the dollar.
