Sean Avery 2.0. Rangers fans will love his game at first, and then realize he sucks. (Although I still say Avery was a good player, and could still be in the league if he wasn't such a dick).
Rangers fans still think Avery could help them. I've never encountered a Rangers fan who thought he sucked.
It was a bit of a smokescreen w/Avery--for some reason, regardless of his own play, the Rangers for whatever reason played better with him in the lineup. Maybe because he was so universally loathed, even by his own team, that they just played angrier. It wasn't until the end there when Avery's play was so bad and Torts' patience was at an end that he was no longer effective.
Watched Nash play in that rout of Toronto the other night. He was one of only three Rangers not to even record a point. I'd say Rick is anything but a lock for Team Canada at this point.
