Watch Out World

Sean's comin' back.

Rangers claimed him off the wire and John Tortorella's job just got that much harder. How soon until the rumours of a locker room brawl break out?

Sean should help kick Zherdev, Drury and Gomez in the ass so perhaps they will start playing somewhere near their potential ... perhaps.

EDIT: New poll question - will Sean help or hurt the Rangers? Hey, there are some people out there that don't like this guy, are you one of them?

I don't want him, you can have him, he's too fat for me.

I like your new banner.

good to see him back. hopefully with a new attitude.

Rangers also put Voros and Reitz (sp) on waivers according to TSN

Avery will find his shape once he starts playing games he cares about. He clearly wasn't giving 100% in Hartford. And with Reitz and Voros on waivers, that clears about 1.5 mill - I believe that is about what the Rangers will be on the hook for with Sean...

only three teams in the nhl have fewer goals than the rangers. if they're not going to score at least avery will make them marginally more fun to watch. sure bring him back.. i'm not the one sharing a locker room with him.

Far as I'm concerned, if the players don't like Avery, that's too bad for them. They weren't doing well when they were "happy", and might as well be "unhappy" and do the job they're paid for if Avery is the missing link they need.

Avery gave a lot for the team in his first stint here, I'll respect him for that.

Zipay is reporting that waiving Reitz and Voros clears around $330K for the rest of the season.

Why now? I mean, if they were going to do this, why did they wait until they fired Renney? Why didn't they at least try to preserve a man's job and see if Avery is the answer like loads of rangers fans believe he will be?

How will the average armchair expert be able to pinpoint whether or not the team improves/continues to suck because of Avery or Torts? How will they know who is to blame?

Sather is an idiot. What a farce the Rangers are becoming.
