The Rangers were 50-20-16 with him in the lineup, and posted a 9-13-3 record in the 25 games he did not dress. In addition, he has tallied five goals and seven assists for 12 points, along with 33 penalty minutes in 18 career post-season games with the Rangers. Last season, he skated in 57 games with the Rangers, registering 15 goals and 18 assists for 33 points, along with 154 penalty minutes. He ranked second on the team in penalty minutes (154), sixth in plus-minus rating (plus-six) and tied for third in game-winning goals (four). He established a career-high with four game-winning goals. Avery posted eight multiple-point performances on the season, including three two-goal efforts on February 16, 2008 vs. Buffalo, March 6, 2008 at the New York Islanders and March 18, 2008 vs. Pittsburgh. He also recorded eight points in a six-game span from November 6, 2007 at the New York Islanders to November 17, 2007 at Pittsburgh, registering two goals and six assists during the stretch. He posted two “Gordie Howe Hat Tricks” during the season, the fourth and fifth of his career, respectively, on November 10, 2007 at Toronto and February 23, 2008 at Buffalo. In addition, Avery tallied four goals and three assists for seven points in eight post-season contests with the Rangers. He tied for second on the club in playoff goals (four), and ranked fifth on the team in playoff scoring (seven points). Avery has appeared in 23 games with the Dallas Stars this season, registering three goals and seven assists for 10 points, along with 77 penalty minutes. He tallied four points in two games from October 25 vs. Washington to October 29 vs. Minnesota, recording one goal and three assists over the span.

Im hoping this is a disaster, something to rival the entire Islander season.

LOL. "Torts is going to love him". Classic quote by the moron Sather. I'm guessing the refs will have Avery under a microscope for the rest of his career. Brodeur is probably thrilled too, he only won one playoff game last year with Avery in his face.

in all honesty this is ****in great... now there's something to look forward to watchin the isles/rangers/devils.. as much as i hate the guy it's good for publicity around here.
the difference with the islanders and rangers sucking is that atlast the islanders knew they were gonna be bad.
