Rempe served his two-game suspension and was a healthy scratch for the Rangers' previous game but will draw back into the lineup on Thursday in Boston. The 21-year-old towering winger has taken the NHL by storm since playing his first game in February, with a goal, two points, eight SOG, and 54 PIMs in 10 games played.

The Rangers will rely on Quick in the crease on Thursday night for his second start in the last four games. The veteran Quick has only played twice in the last 10 games but has recorded victories in each, most recently saving 34 of 38 shots (.895 SV%) in a 7-4 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 16th. The Rangers enter action as +126 road underdogs against a Boston Bruins club riding a three-game winning streak.
