I used to think Avery was just misunderstood and that he did most things just for publicity, but the more stories I hear about him the more I have to agree with Tom. He is a lot more talented than most give him credit for, but he has some major mental problems and is a cancer to most locker rooms it seems. Except for the Rangers. Can't figure that one out. Nonetheless I am so thankful the Kings got rid of him.

Yup.

Hockey is a team sport. I'm my mind, Sean Avery is all about Sean Avery.

He just doesn't know when to shut his yap. If he would keep it shut OFF the ice he would be fine. Once I figure out how to do that I will tell the Rangers to bring him back.

They look good, Paul, though they let the Lightning slip back into the game tonight.

Anyone see Johnny Toews goal against the Wings Saturday night? Absolutely amazing!

I agree, Al!

How about Scott Clemenson?....making Broduer's absence much less painful!

Devils win!

I have Kevin Weekes on my fantasy team, so I am less thrilled about SC than the Devil's fans are, Patrick!

Thanks for posting that, I just got an e-mail and was coming here to do the same thing. I doubt you would see a whole team from any other professional sport besides hockey do this.

That story makes me proud as a hockey dad. The parents of those players should be very, very proud of their sons.

A class act by a group of very classy young men.

icehog3 · 12-28-2008, 11:56 PM

Hawks set a franchise record with their 9th consecutive win...outstanding!

Definitely a great story, its these kind of stories that make up for the Sean Avery's of the world. And your right this would likely never happy in any other sport, its just another reason why its the greatest game on Earth.

GO HABS GO!

Mr.Maduro · 12-12-2008, 07:27 PM

Anyone else watching the Devils / rangers game? What a game!!

acruce · 12-12-2008, 09:03 PM
