Pretty much, since I hate most of you too.Ok so we hate him because he does what we do here? Just making sure I had it right lol
I just grow tired of hearing "that's dumb, that's lazy, that's bullshit" from a guy who went offside 22 times a game and alienated himself from every team he was on.I like Avery's breakdowns. The only guy in the Rangers universe willing to tell the truth publicly. He has correctly identified that Mika and Miller are the main problems with the team. He knows puck.
Edit: I want to just add in that Avery has plenty of breakdowns on the Rangers that are highlighting their good play. He loves Lafreniere specifically.
I think it'd be more fun if he was funnier. He used to put up vids of him in the bike lanes in NYC that were funny, but he's obviously just bitter, can't really even talk about the game with any more insight or rigor than like Messier even though Avery has always so badly wanted to be taken seriously as an "intelligent" guyI just grow tired of hearing "that's dumb, that's lazy, that's bullshit" from a guy who went offside 22 times a game and alienated himself from every team he was on.
His targeting of Zibanejad is rich considering Avery's off-ice distractions make Mika look like Nathan MacKinnon.
He was a model, an actor, a business owner, a walking soundbyte, and a coach's worst nightmare, out of the league at 31 because he didn't give a f*** and he's gonna talk about what Mika did over the summer. He's projecting.
If Valiquette said it, who's done nothing in his life but hockey, I might be more receptive to it.
I thought we outplayed themPretty routine sh*t-play-get-2-points game, maybe a little wobblier than usual. We still have issues in all 3 zones, but at least there are a lot of teams that give us plenty of time and space in the ozone during the regular season.
Chytil also got hurt in a collision w Sammy Blais (when he was on the Rangers).I'm sorry but it needs to be said cause it's getting a little much. Players run into each other all the time. It happens. Unfortunately Chytil may be hurt.
But Chytil is NOTORIOUS for skating with blinders on. He routinely has near misses for getting killed near the red and offensive blue line. He is reckless, fast and fragile. A dangerous combo.
What i am getting at is it isn't Miller's fault and it's not Chytils fault. 2 players got mixed up and it happens. Hopefully Chytil is OK.
Right, like if it was just meant to be ridiculous, I wouldn't mind so much.I think it'd be more fun if he was funnier.

If Avery really sees the game at a high level why doesn’t he act like it? Seen plenty of his shit clips and it’s just him yelling, cursing, throwing around buzzwords like soft or accountability. It’s indistinguishable from some random old fat guy yelling at the TV but since he’s a former player with a gruff persona people will meatride him for “telling it like it is”
But he played with Jagr. He knows shit.If Avery really sees the game at a high level why doesn’t he act like it?

They are good enough. They have shown it before and they can show it again. Everyone needs a good swift kick in the ass sometimes to give them a confidence boost to remind them that they can do it. You have to believe, don't give up on yourself. Be kind to yourself too, you deserve every good thing that comes your way.I see a first round exit in our future. I feel like the veterans on this team realize that they aren't good enough.
I’m sure there’s a million things he could give insight on that a regular person will never be able to. But when it comes to his NYR analysis it’sBut he played with Jagr. He knows shit.
