The Rangers have an epic 12 months of Rempe calendar in the making. It shows what fans who follow the team closely like myself have asked for decades, a legit enforcer to protect the highly paid scorers the Rangers constantly focus on signing/developing. That's why there's excitement, even over the hill Reaves was more than adequate compared to any previous Ranger semigoon going back to Dale Weiss. Most Rangers fans are tired of watching their premier players get run with no repercussions from the bench, no call from the refs and no punishment from the NHL.
