The Rangers and the Flyers rivalry may not be as intense as the rivalry with the Devils or Islanders, but the two teams still do not like each other. Today, Rangers rookie matt Rempe proved that as he dropped the gloves once again.

Rangers Rookie Fights In NHL Debut

Rempe only recently made his NHL debut, where he also dropped the gloves during the stadium series contest against the Islanders. In that one, he thoroughly trounced Matt Martin, earning a fighting penalty on his first ever NHL shift.

The 21-year-old has had an eventful entrance into the league as he has already received multiple fighting majors after a second contest today. He also received a major penalty for check to the head on Devils forward Nathan Bastian. That is quite the track record for a player with three games of NHL experience.

Rempe Establishes Himself As Consistent Physical Threat In The NHL

Today, the physical 6'8" rookie got into his second career fight as he took on Flyers veteran Nicolas Deslauriers in an extended tilt.

One of the BEST hockey fights you'll ever see 😳🔥

Matt Rempe vs Nicolas Deslauriers 👊

Clearly, Rempe is not afraid to leverage his size to make his presence known. While he might not be scoring, he is at least going to make someone on the other team regret their choices. Be sure to stay tuned for Rempe's next altercation, which at this rate, could come later today.
