Video shows Florida Panthers players targeting Matt Rempe after OT winner
The New York Rangers have a young star in Matt Rempe, and given his physicality, he's clearly in the heads of the Florida Panthers.
The Eastern Conference Finals are being hotly contested by arguably the two best teams in the NHL, and in their latest matchup, we saw the Rangers pull ahead in the series with yet another clutch overtime performance.
However, it's a different video surfacing on social media that has captured attention, with this one taking place during the Rangers celebrating their overtime victory. In the video below, we see several Florida Panthers players attempting to cut off Matt Rempe and target the hulking rookie.
If nothing else, this shows just how much of an impact Rempe being in the lineup can have for the Rangers, as the threat of his physicality is clearly in the heads of his opponent.
We've yet to see the 21-year old have a standout game or moment in this series, but with the Panthers players being so worried about his presence, it's only a matter of time until he changes a game for the Rangers, whether that's a positive or a negative.
