NY Rangers' player Matt Rempe is set to have a disciplinary hearing today for elbowing New Jersey Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler during a recent game. The incident led to Rempe receiving an ejection and has sparked significant controversy, including criticism from the Devils team. Kurtis MacDermid of the Devils expressed disappointment, suggesting Rempe should have adhered to an unwritten code of conduct, stating, "There's a bit of a code, and I thought he would've answered that." The hearing, which will be conducted via phone, indicates any resulting suspension will be for five games or less. This has led to speculation on the potential length of Rempe's suspension, with suggestions ranging up to two games.
