On a related note, it looks like Ray Emery is playing his way back into the NHL over there in Russia. Also, does anyone else think its insane that Sean Avery is basically kicked out of the NHL for the season because Morrow/Turco/Modano are a bunch of pansy pushovers who couldn't tell him to shutup in the locker room? Shanahan and Jagr could handle him fine. Same with the veterans in Detroit. I guess all the talk about Morrow being the greatest leader ever can be discounted. what suggests that the veterans in detroit liked him (besides Hull)? he got traded to the kings, after all. then he got run off the team there on two occasions. then, despite all of the success with him in the lineup and cap room coming off the books thanks to said veterans, he wasn't re-signed by the rangers. he's run out of the league because despite what veterans say to him, he doesn't listen. he puts himself ahead of the team and it cost him his job. i don't get any complaining about this. It's not about liking him, it is about being able to keep him from being a negative influence on the team. Overall, Avery helped more than he hurt in Detroit and NY. I'm sure he could be a positive influence in the right situation again. It's just if a team has no real veteran leaders with the balls to keep him in line, he becomes a locker room cancer.
