"Per Colin Stephenson, the Matt Rempe injury is going to be longer than many had hoped. Rempe did not return to the game against San Jose after his fight with Ryan Reaves, and has been out with an upper body injury. He didn't travel with the team, which was always a red flag, and since he directly punched Reaves' helmet a few times, we can infer the actual injury."
"Brennan Othmann was recalled following the injury, and it's expected he will stick with the Rangers for a bit until either Rempe is healthy or someone else from Hartford is "more ready." What he does with this opportunity is up to him."
Matt Rempe left the game against San Jose after a fight with Ryan Reaves and remains sidelined with an upper-body injury. He did not travel with the team, indicating the injury is more significant than initially expected. Multiple direct punches to Reaves' helmet suggest the injury likely involves Rempe's hand or wrist. Brennan Othmann was recalled to the Rangers roster to fill the vacancy created by Rempe's absence. Othmann is expected to stay with the team until Rempe returns or another Hartford player is deemed more ready. Othmann's performance during this opportunity will determine his tenure.
