Ryan Reaves Gives Matt Rempe High Praise
Matt Rempe is just out here fighting everybody. He even recently threw down with OG fighter, Ryan Reaves.
After the scrap, Reaves was very complimentary of Rempe.
“Nice old-school scrap there,” Reaves said. “He’s definitely the longest I’ve ever fought. He’s just really lanky.”
“At the beginning of the fight, I didn’t throw a lot because I had to make sure I was holding him where I wanted to, make sure I positioned him in the right spot,” Reaves said. “At first, he had me strung out a little. So I had to be a bit patient, get his grip off of that. Once I was comfortable, I started throwing punches.”
“He’s a nice kid, he talked about how the media pumped it up so much (in the penalty box),” Reaves said. “Two Original Six teams going at it, everybody’s talking about a fight. It was cool to see because it shows fighting isn’t dead in the sport and people still kind of get amped up for it.”
“He’s going to be a menace in this league,”
By the way, is anyone bothered by this because this has been an awesome streak? This dude is out here fighting every single night. Has no interest in returning to the AHL. Say whatever you want but he’s made an impact on the 4th line in New York and the way he’s fighting brings real juice to the entire building. The Rangers might really have something here. Plus, his nickname is awesome. Does anything beat the Rempire State Building?
