There’s a youthful bent to the New York Rangers lineup when they open up the preseason schedule Sunday against the New Jersey Devils.
Eleven of the 20 players dressing for the Rangers are age 23 or younger. That includes Matt Rempe (23), who’s looking to establish himself as a regular in the Rangers lineup this season after bouncing between the NHL and minor leagues a year ago. The towering 6-foot-8 forward already has a history with the Devils, including several fights and an elbowing major against Jonas Siegenthaler on March 11, 2024 which led to a four-game suspension.
