Toronto Maple Leafs forward Ryan Reaves is arguably the most renowned enforcer in the NHL these days, but New York Rangers rookie Matt Rempe has seemingly earned his respect.
Rempe just made his NHL debut in February, but he’s quickly become a household name among hockey fans, gaining recognition for his ferocious hits and his willingness to drop gloves with some of the league’s nastiest bruisers.
After some fisticuffs with Reaves during the Maple Leafs-Rangers tilt last week, Rempe earned some high praise from the 37-year-old.
