Avery Injured

Larry Brooks at the New York Post reports that Sean Avery injured his knee last night and had to the leave the game at 12:45 of the second period last after in a collision with the Leafs Luke Schenn.

Here's John Tortorella on Avery...

"Sean has been playing his best hockey of the year," coach John Tortorella said following the 3-2 OT defeat to the Maple Leafs. "It's a tough break, not only for him, but more importantly for the hockey club."

...the Rangers need every point they can get right now and to have Avery out, on top of Callahan already being out, is going to make it virtually impossible for the Rangers to make the playoffs.
