On Topic

Since Sean Avery is the hot topic and most likely will make his Ranger debut tonight in The Swamp, here's an old interview the flambuoyant and often outspoken energizer did with Maxim:

Sean Avery Speaks


Do you feel like every team has someone gunning for you?
Always. I’m so used to it now, it’s just an assumption going into every game that somebody’s going to be up my ass.

Ever worry that if you get traded, you’re going to have to face guys you’ve badmouthed?
I’m sure at some point I’m going to have to look at these guys and say, “Hey, you know, no hard feelings.” Hopefully everyone will be cool with it.

On Nashville Predators forward Darcy Hordichuk:
“Hordichuk is the worst player in the NHL. He’s an embarrassment. He can’t even skate, he can’t shoot, and he can’t pass. Just look at the stats.”

On former NHLPA head Bob Goodenow, after the lockout ended:

“We didn’t get anything. We wasted an entire season. I am furious at Bob. Bob thought he was bigger than he was. Bob brainwashed players like me.”

And now an entertaining off topic chat I had with a Devil buddy who lives out in Phoenix:

I think what it tells you is that even when things aren't always going the way you want, you can always feel good about something. It's all about perspective. Still can't believe some of the songs they're playing on this 90's station. Classic stuff!
