( * first time since 1989 )

where the hell did that come from ?

wow .

Bathgate66 · November 2007

What the hell happened to the New York Ranger Powerplay ?

NY PJ1 · November 2007

this team is weak :(

xavier mcdaniel · November 2007

that was a bad one. scott gomez has to throw it at the net and not wait before the defender strips him of the puck and dan girardi had a bad one, getting totally undressed on two of those dallas goals. and where was the help on brenden morrow for that goal. given the time and space he had to take ribiero's centering feed, if i could skate i could have scored that goal also.

Sounds about as effective as Chris Drury on the PP

im hearing avery needs surgery on the left wrist :(

one of those years for him

xavier mcdaniel · November 2007

from newsday

Avery---already sidelined once this season with a shoulder separation----will not only miss the Islanders game, but several more after arthroscopic surgery to clean out his left wrist tomorrow at 5:30 p.m.

Avery---who reinjured the wrist against Tampa when hit by a shot--- practiced without shooting today, but was waiting for results of a CAT scan on the wrist, which has bothered him since the start of the season.

He said afterward that the decision had been made and didn't know how long he would be sidelined. Avery said he had been playing with a fracture, and was worsened during a fight five games after he returned---we're thinking with Darcy Tucker in Toronto.

"Hopefully, it'll only be a week or two," he said. "But I don't live in a reality world."

this absolutely sucks.

regardless of the many issues this team is facing right now,

their rcord without avery is awful compared to with him.

the guy is our sparkplug on skates.

we are fucked

xavier mcdaniel · November 2007

i'm going to disagree here, he may the agitator and the stats show that the rangers win with him in the lineup, but now is the time for them to stop screwing around and get rolling, the talent is there on the forward lines for it to happen.

xman - just asking

which part of you disagreeing with ?

i think it sucks that he's injured and out now for at least a week

not really talking stats as much as the outright record with avery vs without avery.
I do not know the #s detailed , but i know its alot more Ws with Avery as opposed to then without .

as far as us being fucked, we are stuck in the muck right now, & i think
we can be salvaged from it, but if we dont shake it off quick, we will remain fucked.

now is the time to get rolling - i will agree with that
i think we've almost reached a time where its worrisome and on the verge of losing the season.
over-relying on henrik too may times and
that jagrs minds off somewhere else,....
when i read in the paper he's relying on strakas return to rescue his season ?
what kind of heart is that ?
this is our captain ?
i dunno.
we never heard excuses from the prior captain(s)
what the fuck
i know when hes at the top of his game he's probably the best player in the world,
but c'mon .

xavier mcdaniel · November 2007

that they're fucked. forgot to mention that was the part i disagreed with in the first reply.

i'm not sure about jagr's mind, it might be not having martin straka with him for a large chunk of the season so far. i've never played the game so i really don't know how a linemate's absence effects someone's play or style and i think gomez will get the memo that he has to shoot more often.

plus the schedule is pretty favorable, nine of the next 15 at home, only three back-to-backs.

rival. · November 2007

things just got real tight in the atlantic, with both the isles and devils winning last night. tonight is really a must win in regulation for the rangers... can't allow the isles to get even a point.

Bathgate66 · November 2007

with avery = 9-4-1
without avery = 4-5-1

after averys arrival last season at the trade deadline from LA = 17-6-6

clearly the guy is more of an impact then anyone expected .

AVERY TAKES A DETOUR FOR WRIST SURGERY

By HOWARD KUSSOY
November 29, 2007 -- After missing close to a month with a shoulder injury at the beginning of the season, Rangers winger Sean Avery now will be sidelined indefinitely when he undergoes arthroscopic surgery on his fractured left wrist tonight at St. Vincent's Medical Center in Manhattan. The operation will be performed by hand surgeon Dr. Martin Posner.

Although it's uncertain how much time Avery will miss, Rangers defenseman Paul Mara returned from the procedure in 10 days, and Avery is optimistic about a rapid return to the ice.

"Hopefully it's only a week or two. I don't live in a reality world, though, so I don't know," Avery said. "I knew something was wrong, so I'd rather get it taken care of now and get back as quick as I can and help the guys.

"They're gonna take a look at everything. Primarily they're going in . . . there's a fracture in the hand that they've gotta clean up a bit."

Tom Renney said, "We've been given a bit of a timetable that certainly suggests it won't be too long."

The Rangers are 9-4-1 with Avery in the lineup this season and 4-5-1 without him. After acquiring him from the Kings last season, the Rangers went 17-6-6 in their successful playoff push.

"We know what type of game we have to play, and I don't think me in the lineup should make that much of a difference," Avery said. "Everything's gonna be fine. We still have some pretty good players in the lineup."

Alternate captain Brendan Shanahan said, "It gives an opportunity for some other guys to step in and grab some of his valuable ice time. Someone has to see that it's a real opportunity to go and pick up the slack for what we'll miss with him."

The Rangers are 1-2-1 in their last four games and now must face the Islanders, who already have beaten them three times this season, tonight at the Garden.

Avery, who practiced yesterday, considered playing tonight, but ultimately it was decided it would be best to go forward with the procedure immediately.

"You have to talk Sean out of a lot of things, and certainly playing is one of them," Renney said.

"I guess it's better than getting hurt in April or May," Avery said, referencing another playoff run. "It's the only way I can look at it."

Ryan Callahan (knee) was taken off injured reserve and will be available to play tonight.

i watched the entire game. sticks had a little luck on their side... the sens had a few goal posts and a goal that was disallowed because they had a man in the crease and interference was called (even though an islander pushed him in).

DP pisses me off like no other. he comes out to play pucks he has no business playing. almost cost him in OT, but he was able to recover and make the save. i'm just waiting for him to get a knee to the head again.

hopefully they come out sluggish tonight and the rangers can take advantage of them in the 1st period and maybe go into the 2nd up 2 goals.
