From Lance Hornby of the Toronto Sun:
If Cliff Fletcher truly wants to make the Maple Leafs a team opponents hate to play, he could sign the dean of despised players, Sean Avery.
According a source, the National Hockey League’s reigning shock jock has changed his mind on playing in his native Canada, and his GTA home in particular, after July 1. Last year, the Pickering-born centre dumped on Toronto saying: “I don’t enjoy hockey-obsessed Canadians. The (US-Canadian dollar) exchange is not very good right now. And it’s going to cost me a lot of money in tickets for people I don’t even like.”

The Leafs would be better off passing on Avery. They don’t need his services as they are looking to rebuild for three years down the road.
