Sean Avery and the New York Rangers Go For Back-To-Back Sweep

Tonight, the New York Rangers will host the New York Islanders in the final game of the back-to-back, home-and-home series.

The Rangers took the first game 6-5, thanks to excellent play by their new and improved top-line.

The Rangers top-line of Marian Gaborik-Erik Christensen-Sean Avery contributed with nine points in the first game, including a hat-trick from Gaborik, and will most likely stick together for game-two.

The Rangers second line of Brandon Dubinsky-Derek Stepan-Ryan Callahan also contributed with an early goal in the game.

Expect Henrik Lundqvist to start for the Rangers, after relieving Martin Biron half-way through game-one.

I wouldn't expect much of a roster change or line change for the game, but I will be back later this afternoon with any updates, including line changes or roster moves.
