clearly, henrike needs a few games riding the pine.

he thinks he's eddie giacomin out there,...

i'm an islanders fan and i have two points to make:

1 - Sean Avery is a scumbag and I can't think of a better place for him to play than the Rangers.

2-Tough loss to Detroit tonight...same thing happened to us last week...only we managed to get a point out of that game.

thats all.

lets go isles.

detroit 7-11-1 when trailing through two, so once they get the first goal, it's not a surprise.

the inherent joke was that there is indeed no isles thread.

thats cool.

i hate cliches' and all,

but there is something to the " You Cant Beat Us " chants .
We have yet to even compete with your guys as of yet this year, but thats been typical of this years NYR- playing catch up- or should i say Catsup- cuz its been bloody ugly .
Maybe Averys coming in wil rattle us up ?

did avery get into it with any present day Isles- why so much rancor for this player ? ?

?

I will be watching .

I think we have 4 more ? you guys up 4-0 so far .

hopefully we'll pull some stuff off by trading dealine .
we need an agile, consistant , puck moving defenseman already .

we're still about 3 or 4 million under the cap, too.

NYR out,.........

then maybe PJ will pull off a show at the Mecca in 07.

Avery hasnt ever done anything directly to any islanders..not that i'm aware of anyway....but i've seen him throw many a'dirty hits...and he seems like such a talentless piece of shit...little fuckin runt....and not a good runt like Blake...a dirty fuckin runt.

these next few games between the rangers and the isles are huge for both sides...we're running out of playoff spots...and time's running out as well.

well, depends how you look at it i guess.

its like darcy tucker , or maybe kasparaitis type of player.
if he's on your team, hes an asset,..

this guy ranks 1st in the league in drawn penalties. ( i think i remember Versus saying it was leading the league with like 49 or something like that )

if the NYR finally gel on the PP ( law of probabilities , ect ) then maybe they can claw back up the standings. we're on the out looking in right now .

xavier mcdaniel · February 2007

avery's only been in two fights this year, i know fighting is down but i figured he'd have more. i saw him in last month in LA against the Red Wings and the guy had the best of both worlds - a diving penalty and a goal in a 4-2 win for the Kings..

Messier out to be next Rangers GM
Moving to New York, actively seeking job

By TERRY JONES, SUN MEDIA

NEW YORK -- Mark Messier didn't finish the sentence.

He told reporters at the NHL all-star game that he has decided he wants to be a general manager.

In fact, he wants to become general manager of the New York Rangers!

Messier told Sun Media yesterday that he wants to take over from his former coach and GM when Glen Sather retires from the job in New York. Messier led the team to a first Stanley Cup since 1940 back in 1994.

Furthermore, Messier said he has decided to get pro-active about it.

He's planning to move back to New York and make it his primary residence and plans to talk to Sather about the idea after his Feb. 27 banner-raising in Edmonton.

"I'm going to have discussions with Glen. I don't know how long Glen is going to keep doing it. Maybe he'll continue for another five or 10 years.

"I just know New York fits best for me and my family. And this is what I know best and what I love the most," Messier said of taking two years away from the game to think through what he'd like to do with the rest of his life. He retired as a player in September 2005.

Messier's dad Doug wonders if there's already something going on in the background.

He says he hasn't talked to his son about it, but the fact that Mark decided to move back to New York tells him there has to be some method to his madness.

"He's not moving back just to go to nightclubs. He must know something."

At Madison Square Garden yesterday, where the final day of a five-day Mark Messier leadership camp was held, Sather spoke to the subject.

Could Messier move back to New York and begin an apprenticeship under the current Rangers GM?

"He probably could," Sather said. "We'd have to sit down and figure out a lot of details.

"The first thing would be to be sure it's what he really wants to do because it's not something you can work at part time.

"I talked to him previously, just last spring, and he wasn't sure.

"I'm glad he's interested. He has been able to accomplish everything he set his mind to at this stage in his life.

NECESSARY STEPS

"Most guys who have stepped in as a general manager have worked to get a little background, either in coaching or working under others in an organization. I think there are necessary steps to take.''

Doug Messier said he can see it.

"Mark has been away from it a bit now. He has had time to really think about it and he has come to the conclusion he wants to get back into hockey."

Mike Keenan, the coach of that 1994 Rangers team who also coached one of the teams in the Captain's Cup at Messier's camp, can see it, too.

"I think Slats would be respectful of Mark's wish to do that. There is such a strong relationship with Mark and Glen.

"And Mark has probably already learned a lot from Glen. To be mentored by Glen to take over ... I think Glen would probably be proud to pass the torch to him."

Former Rangers and Edmonton Oilers teammate Jeff Beukeboom can see it.

"It wouldn't surprise me. It wouldn't surprise me one bit. It would be hard not to give it to him, too."

Beukeboom said having Messier in the job would bring on "extreme pressure."

Beukeboom then laughed.

"Which he would relish."

Attending Messier's camp for the past four days, he said, really opened his eyes to the idea that Messier might be able to succeed as a GM.

"Seeing him here this weekend, the way he has poured himself into his camp and his attention to detail, I can see him doing the job."
