Matt Rempe quickly stole the NHL headlines this season, when he appeared out of nowhere in the Blueshirts lineup.
He put up a good fight, but wore a shiner near the end of the season, as he would only play 17 regular season games.
With news of his off-season training with Georges Laraque and the 2024 Paris Olympics ramping up, where could Rempe find his place?
Well, given his size he would be a dominant boxer at 6'7" 241 lbs, an easy entry into the heavyweight classes.
He's got the size, a mean streak, and can take punishment, perfect for Rempe to take on world-class pugilists in the Olympic games.
Should the Rangers ever feel like waving Rempe, maybe he should consider training with Mike Tyson to deliver the hurt bombs in the boxing arena.
