Contrary to the abysmal product that are the Iles, they had some nice weapons last year and I enjoyed watching the club, for some perverse reason. They did have five players with 20+ goals - much better than that scrub team the Wild.
NYI needs to sign Mike Smith. That'll fix all their problems.

as if it was needed, here's another reason to hate Sean Avery:
NHL star Sean Avery was arrested early this morning after he shoved a police officer who was trying to break up a loud party at his home in the Hollywood Hills ... TMZ has learned.
According to law enforcement sources, a neighbor called police to complain about the noise coming from Avery's home. When police arrived at about 1:00 AM, we're told Avery answered the door ... then shoved a cop and slammed the door behind him.
Police then knocked again, and we're told the New York Rangers star came to his senses and opened up. According to law enforcement ... Avery was extremely cooperative after that, but was still booked for battery on a peace officer.
He was taken to the Hollywood police station and is being held on $20,000 bail.
UPDATE: Avery was released at 8:10 AM and is scheduled to appear in court on September 2.

seriously hope somebody (Chara, Parros, Byfuglien, etc) beats the living shit out of him this year
Byfuglien is a lover, not a fighter. He's a big softy, but by all accounts a cool mofo.
One of the highest-profile Winnipeg Jets was in a Minneapolis jail Wednesday night for allegedly refusing a breathalyzer.
Defenceman Dustin Byfuglien, 26, was released from custody just before 2:30 Thursday morning, according to a Hennepin County arrest report.
The Winnipeg Jets are aware of the arrest and CTV is awaiting a comment.
