Matt Rempe has been an absolute force to be reckoned with since joining the NHL a few weeks ago, but now, he faces calls for suspension from many fans, particularly those of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Matt Rempe avoids suspension for massive hit

During their latest game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Rempe took down newly acquired defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin, with many fans believing the play deserved some type of punishment.
Ilya Lyubushkin is feeling it after taking a HUGE hit from Matt Rempe 😳
Now however, the time has come and gone for the NHL Department of Player Safety to make a decision on the Rangers rising star, meaning that no disciplinary action will be taken against him.
The clock strikes 5 PM and the DoPS is quiet - no word on supplemental discipline for Matt Rempe's hit on Ilya Lyubushkin. #NHL #PlayerSafety #LeafsForever
Rempe has brought back the physical style of hockey that the NHL has been lacking in recent years, so while he's avoided punishment (and rightfully so) here, don't think this is the last time the DoPS will have their eyes on him.
