Sean Avery Gets Promoted To The First Line and What Happens? 3 Assists.

Avery set up Christensen for his whippet of wrist shot that beat Rick DiPietro from the right circle for the first goal at 8:11. His backhand centering feed set up Gaborik in front at 3:31 of the third for a 5-3 lead. Avery, tied for the club lead with 12 assists, and then set up Gaborik's winner by winning a puck battle against Rob Schremp and sending the puck to Christensen at the top, whose deflected shot was flicked in by Gaborik."Sean was given an opportunity [to play with Gaborik] and certainly seized it," Tortorella said. "I thought Sean did a great job of forechecking and keeping the puck, and that Erik and Gabby followed by grinding." The Islanders attempted to get in Avery's face all night to provoke him, but the amateurs failed to irritate the master. Indeed, one-time Ranger P.A. Parenteau is likely to regret his trash-talking spin in front of the Blueshirts' bench after the Islanders had come back to tie at 5-5 at 14:10. "P.A. skated by the bench and basically mocked us," Avery, who created the winner on the next shift, told The Post. "It was the wrong move for a guy like that. "He's never going to get himself into a club in the city after I send out e-mails."

 

Boom. Wake the world up and ask it if it's ready for the return of Sean Avery.
