Matt Rempe Set To Return From Injury After Four-Game Absence

Matt Rempe is set to return to the New York Rangers lineup on Monday night against the Tampa Bay Lightning. 

This comes after Rempe missed four consecutive games with an upper-body injury he suffered on Mar. 25 against the Los Angeles Kings.  

The 22-year-old forward has been active in the last few practices, and Peter Laviolette confirmed on Tuesday that Rempe will play against the Lightning.

By the looks of Monday morning’s optional skate, Rempe is expected to come in for Brett Berard who will likely be a healthy scratch.

With six games remaining, the Rangers are fighting for their playoff lives and Rempe could give the team a spark.
