Below are the lineups for tonight's game.

Goalies: Henrik Lundqvist, Martin Biron
Defense: Michael Del Zotto, Dan Girardi, Ryan McDonaghMike Sauer, Stu Bickel, Tim Erixon
Forwards: Sean Avery, Brandon Dubinsky, Brian Boyle, Dale Weise, Andre Deveaux, John Mitchell, Mats Zuccarello, Erik Christensen, Artem Anisimov, Andreas Thuresson, Ryan Bourque, Carl Hagelin.

Avery should go after the open roster spot

Wouldn’t that be more helpful to him?

I do despise Jagr, though.

I like Jags.

But I want Avery on the roster, even if he’s a healthy scratch. There will be games when we need him. He’s a better option than Christensen and using Borque/Hagelin/Weise as an extra is a waste.

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."

Thuresson scored after a great forechecking shift by Avery and Boyle, Briere tackled Henrik, Weise got his face punched in, Deveaux got boarded by Sestito who got kicked from the game and a 5 min major but Bickel was given a 2 min instigator for attacking Sestito for the hit, Philly got a PP goal on a 4 on 3 after an Anisimov tripping and they basically completely wasted the 5 min major with other penalties.

Game 6, I believe you have hit it on the head. I think Del Z played above his head in his rookie year and has not been able to match that since. I think some of us give him way too much credit as to what his ceiling is, while some of us realize that if he is not getting it by now….he likely never will. He is not Brian Leetch…….I kind of think it is time to move on if he doesn’t make the team this year. Stock is only going to go down if he doesn’t
