Sean Avery

Actually a pretty smart human: http://www.theplayerstribune.com/sean-a ... er-hockey/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

He really didn't elevate the game of hockey during his tenure in the NHL. In fact, Avery de-elevated it.

His earlier comments regarding Dion Phaneuf reflected a total lack of class. Glad he's gone. The game is better off w/o him.

I think you missed the point of the post and linked article.

I am thinking you are correct.

There is something about the mere mention of his name brings out the worst in me. Sorry.

Good read. I lol'd at the players hiding there wives from their girlfriends line...

All seriousness. It's a good read and shows you need to have good smart people around you (if you're not one yourself) when it comes to multi million dollar contracts!

Wish more players wrote articles, pretty cool

Much more articulate and well-written than I expected from Avery. A very good read.
