New York Rangers forward Matt Rempe has been suspended for eight games due to boarding and elbowing Dallas Stars defenseman Miro Heiskanen. The decision follows an in-person hearing, allowing for a more severe penalty.

This suspension comes after the Rangers' disappointing performance, marking their fourth consecutive home loss. Rempe, who has struggled to find his footing this season, was recently recalled from the AHL and has yet to score in five games.
