From Greenburgh, the Rangers has a light practice with everyone particpating except Sean Avery and Paul Mara, who sprained his shoulder in yesterday’s game.
Towards the end of practice, some of the Rangers were hitting pucks off a piece of wood in front of the net to practice rebounds, which is something Chris Drury brought from [...]

Looking around the different message board; listening to talk radio and such, it seems like Met fans tend to hate the Lastings Milledge for Ryan Church and Brian Schneider deal.
I don’t understand why.
Milledge, for all his potential, put up a number of red flags over the past two seasons. First, he rubbed teammates the wrong [...]

Sean Avery had wrist surgery today at 5:30 and the Islanders came in an hour and half later.
The Isles went to a six round shootout last night beating the now slumping Ottawa Senators and may be tired for the game at the Garden.
But these are the Rangers they are playing and the Isles tend to [...]

The Rangers announced Sean Avery will have arthroscpic surgery on his left wrist tomorrow, before the Islander game, so he will be out for the near future.
Avery said to me after the last Islander game at the Garden, he hurt the wrist in the “Tucker Fight” as he was leaving. HE then had a puck [...]

The Mets acquired Brian Stokes from the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in exchange for cash considerations.
I don’t know what Stokes will bring except a warm body as he had a 2-7 record with a 7.07 ERA last season in 59 games. He allowed 90 hits, including 11 home runs, and 25 walks. Stokes also hit three [...]

Mets radio guy Tom McCarthy is returning to Phialdelphia after he signed a five year deal with the Philles.
McCarthy came here in 2006 and fit in well with Howie ROse, but the money and closeness to his home in New Jersey was just too much to pass up.
He is one of the good guys in [...]

I know this is the moment all the Ranger fans are waiting for when Marek Malik returns, but according to Steve Zipay, Tom Renney may not want to put him back in the lineup on Thursday against the Isles.
Now, he will be coming back, so expect No. 8 to be back there over the weekend. [...]

Greg Moore was sent back to Hartford today to make room for Ryan Callahan, who is expected to play against the Islanders on Thurday.
With Callahan in the lineup, the Ranger forwards will be fully healthy for the first time since the first game of the year, but also presents a problem on who gets scratched.
Marcel Hossa [...]
