Sean Avery, Yet Again
Further to this story, what becomes of Sean Avery now? The pest is currently sitting in Hartford, playing for the Wolf Pack while he collects his full NHL salary from the Dallas Stars. It was thought to be an automatic that Avery would play a few games in the AHL and then join the New York Rangers sooner than later. Now that the club has its sparkplug in Tortorella, that doesn’t seem so likely, does it?
Here’s what the new New York coach said about Avery when he was suspended by Dallas after the infamous ‘sloppy seconds’ comment a couple months ago:
“The league stepped up here and I think they did the right thing. Enough is enough. He’s embarrassed himself, he’s embarrassed the organization, he’s embarrassed the league and he’s embarrassed his teammates, who have to look out for him. Send him home. He doesn’t belong in the league.”
Hmmm…doesn’t look like Avery will be joining the Rangers anytime soon, does it?
