A recent video has surfaced the media of a New York Rangers fan-favourite and it's a must see, showing one of the most hard-nosed players' true colors in the NHL.
A new video has surfaced on the web of the New York Rangers' Matt Rempe mic'd up as a camp coach during the Junior Rangers summer camp, and it really proves his true personality:

Rempe undoubtedly created a lively atmosphere during the Junior Rangers summer camp, and showed his ability to connect with the youth and future of New York hockey.
The lighthearted play of Rempe and kids is not to be taken seriously, as once push comes to shove and puck drop hits, he's ultimately a menace on the ice for the New York Rangers.
Rempe fresh off extension with the New York Rangers
On June 17th, the New York Rangers announced the contract extension of Matt Rempe to a $1.95 million dollar deal across two seasons, averaging out at $975,000.
Rempe's season was plagued by an eight-game suspension, but his work ethic deserves another shot at the NHL level-despite some opposing fan bases not believing so.
While many believe his hits are controversial, it's crucial to note that not everybody is eye-level to Rempe, who stands at a towering 6-foot-9 (off skates!) and 255lbs.
As puck drop is just a few months away, the question now looms as to whether the hefty enforcer will begin the season with the New York Rangers, or Hardford Wolf Pack of the American Hockey League.
