Matt Rempe welcomes himself to the NHL by dropping the gloves with Matt Martin on his first shift and destroyed him!
This comes after Erik Gustafsson opened the scoring with a long wrister from well above the right circle and the Rangers have a 1-0 lead on their first shot of the game!
Unfortunately the Islanders have reeled off three straight goals and two goals in 26 seconds to have the Rangers look like the struggling team in January.
This forced Peter Laviolette to call a much needed timeout. Rangers trail 3-1 in the first period.
