Avery's Just Another Target

Randy Sportak of the Calgary Sun says Sean Avery's visit to Calgary could be the most-hyped return to the Saddledome since Theoren Fleury's comeback, but Flames players see otherwise...

"Neuf, he tries to run everybody over, so I'm sure Avery's just another target out there for him," said defenceman Cory Sarich. "Avery will try to get under everybody's skin, and I'm sure he'll try to get under Neuf's skin, but Neuf handled the other situation well, and I'm sure he'll handle it just as smart."

Flames center Craig Conroy adds...

"Nobody's even mentioned it in here," said Conroy. "I've forgotten about it. He'll be chirpy out there, as usual. That's what he does, tries to throw guys off their game and we can't let him get to us, but Dion's not afraid to throw chirps out there, too. I don't think anything will come of last year.

"But you never know."

...i think Phaneuf has the ball in his court tonight. If he wants to make a big deal out of it he will. If not I really don't see anything happening. Unless of course Avery decides to be Avery and stirs it up a bit.

Wes Gilberson also at the Calgary Sun has a story on former Ranger Freddy Sjostrom discussing how to score on friend Henrik Lundqvist.

...two words: gloveside high.

That shot by Federov was just a perfect shot. Thats why if possible signing Forsey would be a great thing for this team. That guy killed it in the playoffs.
