Sean Avery screens Martin Brodeur
The Battle of Alberta — "Nobody should have to play hockey with a stick an inch from your face," Brodeur said. "But it wasn't a bad play. While he was doing it, I couldn't see anything. The two misses were just luck, I couldn't see a thing." ...

The Sean Avery Rule.
Spector's blog listings. — NY Rangers forward Sean Avery has been making a name for himself as one of the league’s most pesky players (and arguably the most disliked) and now his name will likely be enshrined for posterity for a rule change.

A Sedate Sean Avery is a Dull Sean Avery
The Big Lead — There were no contentious moments, no ribald, impromptu pre or post-game interviews, and certainly no annoying acts in front of the goalie. All in all, a pretty dull opening night in the reincarnation of Sean Avery. Rangers won, kept pace at the bottom of the Eastern Conference playoff standings, and everybody’s thrilled. As Derrick Coleman once said, “Whoop-de-damn-do.” Come on Avery, do something crazzzzzy, like take an internship at Good Housekeeping. Jackass.
