« Pens GM: Don't discount Jagr value | Main | Client 16? »

Practice report... Sort of

Staple here, while Zip heads to sunny Pittsburgh...

And the hot topic this morning was Sean Avery's front-page appearance in one of those other papers, his name and cell-phone number having been listed in madam Kristin Davis' electronic black book.

Avery didn't deny the number was his, but chuckled about the possibility that he would be a regular client. "I certainly have a lot of enemies," he said, noting he's also had that cell-phone number for a while. "I do know that if I was to venture into one of those establishments, I wouldn't use my real name. I think that would be stating the obvious. We've been laughing hysterically over it all morning."

No one else asked about it had much to say, not even Jagr, who did joke that it must have been the first time hockey has been on the front page of a city paper ever (the '94 Cup run and a few of the Isles Cups were before his time).

Scott Gomez practiced fully and came through OK, so he seems to be a go for tomorrow's NBC game with the Pens. The lines: Straka-Dubinsky-Jagr, Avery-Gomez-Shanahan, Dawes-Drury-Callahan, Sjostrom-Hollweg-Prucha/Orr... Malik skated with Strudwick again, while Mara and Rozsival were paired up.

Back to you, Zip.

does that mean that Staal wont be playing???

No,

it means Backman will be playing with Staal again and Strudwick and Malik will continue to be scratched.

Good try though anonymous.

just wondering what happened to the avery,duby,jagr - shanny,gomez,dawes - Callahan-drury-straka lines ... whats the deal we havent been scoring as much as we did with these lines. Any thoughts !!!!!!!!!

that is prety funy what jagr said about the NY papers, its so true and its a damn shame that its like that. hockey will never be "front page" news unless its a bad news story (ie- bertuzzi hit/simon fiasco's).

dunno if anyone seen the pic of the chick he allegedly "bumped fuzzys" with, but she looks like a devil worshiper of some kind, she has an upside down cross pendant around her neck...maybe brouder is a client too, DEVIL worshiper (she worships devil players) get it?..lol..i know one thing, avery positively aint a devil worshiper at least..haha .

lol @ "venture into one of those ESTABLISHMENTS", well said sean!!

id rather see mara sit then malik every game, but thats just me..i wont lose sleep either way.

What more proof could you need that this team is owned, made of, and run by scumbags?

If little Sean is even one-third of a man he'd own up and just admit it.

But he's not, so he won't.

The '94 Rangers were before Jagr's time? Interesting. I guess Staple forgets Jagr putting the Pens on his back in '92 to beat the Rangers in the playoffs after Graves slashed Lemieux.

huh,

leimeux also embelished that just a tad (which he was known to do), smart play cuz it cost them the series.

i think he meant "before his time as a ranger" cuz he joined them in 03'-04'

The only thing that surprises me is that Avery is apparently still trying to convince people that he's straight. lol
