Overview

  • Rempe signed a two-year contract extension worth an average of $975,000 per season.
  • The new deal removes the possibility of an offer sheet from competing NHL clubs.
  • During the 2024-25 season, the 22-year-old appeared in 42 games, registering eight points (three goals, five assists) and ranking first on the team with 19.64 hits per 60 minutes.
  • He made his NHL debut in the 2023-24 season after being selected 165th overall by the Rangers in the 2020 draft.
  • His extension comes as the Rangers enter a new era under Mike Sullivan following the trade of their longest-tenured player, Chris Kreider, to the Anaheim Ducks.
