For real this time, welcome to the NHL Lauri Korpikoski

May 4, 2008   ·   Lenny   ·   Jump to comments

So Tom Renney pulled a fast one on me on Thursday, when he said Lauri Korpikosi would be in the lineup at center on the fourth line with Ryan Hollweg and Fred Sjostrom. Then he went on to scratch Korpi for Colton Orr, which made sense to me. Today though, Orr is definitely out and Korpikoski is definitely in.

Other than that, the lineup for the Rangers remains the same. Jason Strudwick stays in for Christian Backman, and the line combinations that we saw in Thursday night’s win remain intact. Of course, is again a must win, so expect more desperation hockey from the Rangers, which seems to be the best way for them to play.

Not much more to report today other than Sean Avery being moved out of intensive care, being told that he would spend another few days in the hospital, and then releasing himself shortly after. According to Sam Weinman, the joke around the locker room is that the nurses got fed up with him and had him removed for their sanity. No matter what happened, speedy recovery to Avery, and here’s to hoping we see him in Ranger-blue next season.

Enjoy today’s game, we’ll be back with recaps later on.
