Matt Rempe isn’t with the New York Rangers on their current three-game road trip. But the injured forward is back on the ice, per reports from Denver, where the Rangers play the League-leading Colorado Avalanche on Thursday.
Rempe sustained an upper-body injury in fight against San Jose Sharks enforcer Ryan Reaves on Oct. 23. At first, the Rangers believed the popular 23-year-old would return on the ensuing road trip to Western Canada and Seattle. However, during the trip, coach Mike Sullivan revealed that Rempe is out “longer-term,” and he subsequently landed on LTIR.
