The Avery Rule
james mirtle —
I know sometimes it seems as if all of the Sean Avery nonsense and coverage is overblown, but he's actually quite disliked throughout the league, and in a way that goes beyond that of the traditional Darcy Tucker/Jordin Tootoo type pests. And I think that's part of the reason he won't be a Ranger next season. In the clip, Marty Brodeur obviously wants him to stop, and gives him a push and a chop with his stick, the ref is telling him to cut it out and even teammate Chris Drury comes over, during the power play, to tell him to play it straight.

Sean Avery’s Dancing With The Stars Audition
thebroadstreetblog.com 4/14/2008 — Watching last night’s Rangers - Devils game and the exchange between Sean Avery and Martin Brodeur, you would think Avery was trying to get the attention of Dancing with the Stars with his moves. The problem for Avery was that his dance partner, Brodeur, wanted nothing to do with him.

The NHL Now Just Making Up Rules As They Go
tiricosuave.com 4/14/2008 — You may have seen the video from yesterday of Sean Avery blatantly trying to distract Martin Brodeur by waving his hands in stick back and forth in from of him. The NHL took notice of this and immediately implemented a rule making this an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Does this seem absurd to anyone else or is just me?
