Rangers’ Matt Rempe calls suspension for hit on Devil a learning experience
NY Post
The four-game suspension levied against Matt Rempe by the NHL provided enough time for the purple and green bruising around both of his eyes to fade away.
Marks from his five fights in 10 games are gone. The face of a 21-year-old kid remains.
His time away from game action also gave Rempe some space to calm down from the pandemonium in which the 6-foot-8 ½ forward has been engulfed since making his NHL debut just over a month ago.
“Just a learning experience,” Rempe said of his suspension for his high-elbowed hit on the Devils’ Jonas Siegenthaler. “Made a mistake, and just going to learn from it and grow. At 21, still got to learn lots of things. Watching games, you learn a lot. I can go watch a lot of the older guys and see what they’re doing.
“Got lots of great reps in practice, got to work on my skill, got to work on a lot of things. It was great. Obviously, you never want to be suspended, but you learn things, and you get better and you grow.”
Rempe showed remorse for his actions, which concussed Siegenthaler and sidelined him the next four games.
