Rempe produced a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-3 win over Florida.
The rugged winger got the Rangers on the board midway through the first period, then helped set up Jonny Brodzinski for the team's final tally late in the third. It was Rempe's first multi-point performance of the season, and the 22-year-old has seen more consistent shifts in April as New York officially dropped out of the playoff race. Over his five appearances this month, Rempe has averaged 11:10 in ice time while delivering one goal, three points, four PIM and 12 hits.

Rotowire
Rempe notched an assist, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 9-2 win over the Islanders.
This was Rempe's first point in three contests since returning from a four-game absence due to an upper-body injury. The 22-year-old ended his seven-game point drought with the helper. He's up to six points, 26 shots on net, 112 hits, 63 PIM and a plus-6 rating over 39 appearances. He'll be in the mix for bottom-six minutes again in 2025-26, though he'll need a new contract as a pending restricted free agent.

Rangers' Matt Rempe: Is week-to-week
Rotowire

Rempe has two goals, five points, 63 PIM and 103 hits in 36 appearances in 2024-25. His week-to-week status puts his availability for the Rangers' final 10 regular-season games into question, but a return is still possible. In the meantime, Brett Berard might draw into the lineup.

Rangers' Matt Rempe: Tips in goal
Rotowire
Rempe scored a goal, added six hits and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Islanders.
Rempe ended an eight-game point drought with the tally, which was a tip-in of Jonny Brodzinski's shot. That denied Brodzinski a hat trick, but it was still a rare massive game for the Rangers' fourth line. Rempe is up to four points, 16 shots on net, 67 hits, 41 PIM and a plus-5 rating over 23 appearances this season. He appears set to stay in the lineup as long as he can avoid crossing the line with his ultra-physical playing style.

Rangers' Matt Rempe: Tallies in Tuesday's win
Rotowire
Rempe scored a goal on four shots, added four PIM and logged two hits in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Senators.
Rempe also saw 9:12 of ice time, his second-highest mark in a game this season. He had the Rangers' third goal, which sparked a three-goal third period as they ran away with the win. Rempe also mixed it up and earned a double-minor for roughing while coming to the defense of Igor Shesterkin after Brady Tkachuk collided with the netminder in the crease. Rempe's scoring output is limited -- he has just two points in 12 games, though he needed 17 contests to produce that much offense last year. He's added 35 PIM, 29 hits and a plus-3 rating in 2024-25.

Rangers' Matt Rempe: Rare contribution on offense
Rotowire
Rempe registered an assist and two hits in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Golden Knights.
The helper was Rempe's first point in seven NHL outings this season to go with 18 hits and 24 PIM. He took the puck and earned the secondary helper on an Adam Edstrom tally in the third period. Rempe could be a regular in the lineup if he can avoid doing anything suspension-worthy, as Chris Kreider (upper body) and Filip Chytil (upper body) are both unavailable. Still, Rempe's style of play isn't conducive to helping in most fantasy formats.

Rangers' Matt Rempe: Suspension served
Rotowire
Rempe has served out his eight-game suspension for boarding and elbowing, making him eligible to face the Devils on Thursday.
Whether Rempe actually plays in Thursday's game remains to be seen considering he has been a frequent healthy scratch even when on the NHL roster. Still, an injury to Filip Chytil (upper body) in Tuesday's matchup with Dallas could open the door for Rempe to get back into the lineup for the first time since Dec. 20 versus the Stars.

Rangers' Matt Rempe: Set for call-up
Rotowire
Rempe (suspension) will be recalled from AHL Hartford ahead of Tuesday's matchup with Dallas, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
Rempe's promotion will allow him to serve out the final game of his eight-game suspension Tuesday, a move that was facilitated by Chris Kreider (upper body) being placed on injured reserve. Even once his suspension is over, the 22-year-old Rempe is far from a lock to actually crack the lineup, especially after the Rangers claimed Arthur Kaliyev off waivers Monday.
