We don't have a traditional 3rd pair the Lavi shelters and Trouba is a PK mainstay. Lavi always has 2 centers on for DZ draws so the trickles down to a 4th liner, but no Cuylle isn't Rempe. Cuylle was out there to start the OT. -
Playoffs Rangers-Hurricanes Round Two — General Series Thread

I'd go OG kid line with 96 and 79. -
What does any of this have to do with the Canes? The Canes are fast and apply heavy pressure. This is why Rempe gets stapled to the bench after 5 shifts. Rempes game doesn't suit this opponent. The ECF matchup is where he'll be effective.

PP goals. What's this got to do with Rempe?

How does one exact revenge from the bench? Again, they don't need a big bad against Carolina. No one is scared of ADA. They need speed and players that can help sustain ozone pressure. They need to saved the big bad for the ECF opponent and not have him suspended for trying to collect a pound of flesh in this series.

They've won over 60 games now. More than half their loses came in the Dec-Jan slump where they were a .500 team. They got out of that slump without Rempe. No one is looking over their shoulder when Rempe plays 5 minutes in a 90 minute game.

Totally prevented Svech from taking out Igor's leg, but hey, Rempe taking up space on the bench really scares Carolina.

Except he is more like Tage Thompson than Rempe. https://theathletic.com/5356320/2024/03/29/nhl-draft-2024-dean-letourneau-prospect/

It's equally hard to argue that Rempe playing 10 out of 150 minutes is the reason they won.

That's not how fatigue works. Once they get there it's too late.

They have plenty of edge to handle the Canes without him. Like the rookie hits leader who can actually play effective hockey against the Canes speed.
