I had to comment
though it’s late. Avery will be rocking the Stars and us fans are going to love him as part of our team! He is gritty and an instigator for sure, but he is a skilled player who loves winning and is a great addition to the roster!

This has got nothing to do with 1999, I promise!
Avery’s a gutless puke. Bad for the game of hockey. And most definitely bad for the Dallas Stars. Only a guy as short-sighted as Brett Hull would consider his addition to the roster as a good thing. Mike Modano and Jere Lehtinen will find it harder to come to the rink. His teammates will be embarrassed by him night after night. He epitomizes every derogatory cliché ever uttered about the game of hockey.
Too bad, Dallas.
GO SABS!!!
p.s. how’s that for wishy-washy?

Are you
kidding us ?? lol I think Avery is cut from the same cloth that Morrow is IMO .. Dallas is going to be way strong next year.
Two awesome gritty agitators that can score and forecheck and backcheck relentlessly is going to make them one of the toughest teams in the West to play against!!
That’s not even getting to their goalie either!! I’m glad the Flyers won’t have to play them more than once next season!
