awingsincebirth 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2008 Interesting! Would it be giving Avery too much credit to suggest that he did this to try and fire up Malik and bring out his tough side? Or do you think it was just a case of a doushbag being a doushbag? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lou_Siffer 1 Report post Posted February 6, 2008 What the hell is that Avery, Malik TKOed you?? Wow. Yeah i know! I kinda take that with a grain of salt though, its hard to know how knowledgable the guy who wrote the article is on fighting. For all we know, Avery couldve just gotten taken down and the dude overblew it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds lke it was Avery being in a bad mood and probably mouthing off being a smart ass, and Malik being irritated that he hasnt been playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He can score a fight I bet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted February 6, 2008 Malik sounds like the 3rd best European fighting defenseman now behind Lilja and Chara. Too bad there's no video of this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jaytan Report post Posted February 7, 2008 Gotta love Avery. “What are you, a tough guy? Why don’t you play like that in a game?” Somebody needs to get those guys in line and it sounds like he's stepping up to the plate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 I feel like Avery is slowly becoming a parody of himself. Why? There's nothing wrong with a good fight in practice every once in a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opie 308 Report post Posted February 7, 2008 Intra squad skirmishes can do 1 of 2 things; 1) Create some competitive spirit/bonding amongst the team which can carry on throughout the rest of the season. OR 2) Create animosity amongst the team which eventually tears the team apart. IMHO with the Rangers, & their erratic play - #2 is more likely to happen. 3) have your own guys injuring each other. Say what you want about fighting and people not getting hurt but I saw Joe T get his jaw broken by big E, granted they were on separate teams, but a bad fall, a misstep and one of them has a tore up knee, a smashed face, or something. The last thing a struggling team needs is to have a main cog in their wheel taken out by their teammate. By the way, where the Hell is shanny in the mess known as NYR!!! 17 15 32 in 51 games played, the team desperately lacks leadership (Jagr has never been a good leader) there is in fighting they are struggling to win games and shanny is sort of lost this season.
