As fans, we get to question Bettman and the league office. Obviously it takes business acumen to run an organization like the NHL, but it is also not that hard to understand why many folks think he is way too unknowledgeable about the game. JDP

Seriously. Gene Pool: how do you know such a thing? OK, I have to ask:

Number two, comparing Avery to Drury is stupid. Someone else mentioned that and it is completely true. They are different players who play different styles. Drury plays like your grandmother drives (slowly and carefully and painful to watch) and Avery plays like that 17 year old who just got his first car. This team isn't winning a cup soon. With Hank in net, the playoffs are a possibility every year, but even a hot goalie can't score goals for his team also. I'm not going to speculate where the Rangers will finish last year because I don't know who will be on the team, but I'm not feeling very optimistic...
