Tonight’s Top Scorers – December 2 – “Sloppy Seconds” Edition

Click on a Dallas Stars story on TSN and I have the choice of watching five great videos.

  • Gone Too Far – Jermaine Franklin reports from Calgary where Sean Avery’s comments have resulted in a suspension.
  • In Hot Water – The NHL feels Sean Avery’s comments have crossed the line and he will be suspended by the league
  • Crossing the Line – The NHL on TSN panel talks about Sean Avery’s comments which drew a suspension from the league
  • Enough is Enough – The NHL on TSN panel discusses Sean Avery’s suspension, how does it effect his future with Dallas?
  • A New Low – Sean Avery is in hot water again following a derogatory statement he made after a morning skate
  • No Surprise – Members of the Dallas Stars react to the latest controversy created by their teammate Sean Avery.

Really? Do I need five videos telling me things I already know.
That Sean Avery is: classless, a douchebag, a drama queen, an agitator, a cancer in the locker room etc and that he previously dated Elisha Cuthbert. Instead of bashing Avery the TSN Panel (who make me want to puke) (minus James Duthie) should be praising Avery and thanking him for saying something interesting to talk about. Every other player in the NHL minus Alex Semin this year is content with giving the cliche “one game at a time” answer in every interview.

Am I the only one who is curious about the pillow talk this evening between Dion Phaneuf and Elisha Cuthbert?

Enough about him for now, onto Tonight’s Top Scorers.
