Avery's Apology

Filed under: Canadialand > Zportz

Who knew that in a sport where players regularly brawl and knock each other's teeth out, team members would be expected to maintain a standard of decency off the ice?

Following a not-too-kind-but-not-obscenely-vulgar comment about ex-girlfriend and D-List actress Elisha Cuthbert, Dallas Stars' Sean Avery was suspended from the NHL indefinitely.

Whoa!

Now, Avery has issued the obligatory apology.

"I should not have made those comments and I recognize that they were inappropriate. It was a bad attempt to build excitement for the game, but I am now acutely aware of how hurtful my actions were. I caused unnecessary embarrassment to my peers as well as people I have been close with in the past.

I apologize for offending the great fans of the NHL, the commissioner, my teammates, my coaching staff and the Dallas Stars management and ownership. As many of you know, I like to mix it up on and off the ice from time to time, but understand that this time I took it too far."

Avery is already known to be a bit of an instigator, goading opponents and pulling stunts, but the "inappropriate public comments, not pertaining to the game" were just a little too much.

Stars owner Tom Hicks said he "completely supports the league's decision to suspend Sean Avery."

Avery will attend a hearing to determine his fate today, Thursday.

      I found out last night my husband has been cheating on me.

      It's been an awful 12 hours.
      I just needed to talk to some of my friends on here.
      I feel like I'm going to lose my shit!



    6. 6

      If he didn't get suspended indefintitely he wouldn't have apologized. The loser knew what he was saying when he said it. Common Sean, she broke up with you, now get over it!!

      Obviously I was the only one in the world who found his Sloppy Seconds comment incredibly hilarious. HA. Take that Elisha Cuthbert, you has been!



    11. 11

      I'm not a hockey fan but GO NHL! His comment was vulgar and I'm glad they are calling him on it. She was willing to date his lame a@@ so by putting her down what does that say about him?



    12. 12

      Fuck men!



    13. 13

      trying to figure out why you keep calling elisha cuthbert a d list actress. she's on 24. she does a lot of work. how is she d list? is anyone that isn't your precious angie, now a d lister??? or are the d listers (in your head), people that you are just jealous of because they are dating guys you will never have?



    14. 14

      He is definitely not my type. He looks like a skinhead.
      Why or why young men shave their hair ( unless they are going bald of course, or have lice problem ) ???
      I love to touch men's hair, bury my face in it, run my fingers through it. I don't want to bury my face in a prickly stubble.



    15. 15

      It has long been known in the NHL's inner circle that Avery is not wanted in the league. Although he has tremendous talent, he has always made an ass of himself in every other aspect of the game. His teammates and the coaching staff would actually be happy with him being kicked out of the league - they have been waiting for something like this - seems a bit silly that this would be the straw that breaks the camels back but they'll take what they can get at this point!!



    16. 16

      I see him offering an apology to everyone in the world except the one person he offended most of all , his "my sloppy seconds" ex-girlfriend.



    17. 17

      you can tell his apology was written for him. he doesnt talk like that at all.

      i hope the NHL keeps him suspended. hes an ass…..its about time he gets in trouble.

    20. 20

      I HATE HIM SO MUCH! I'M SO HAPPY HE'S SUSPENDED INDEFINITELY HE'S SUCH A DOUCHEBAG. THIS JUST PROVES THAT HIS DOUCHEBAGGERY DOESN'T END WHEN HE LEAVES THE ICE.

    25. 25

      i think it's pretty dumb to suspend him for something that wasn't related to his job. That like you getting fired from your job bc you put up a video calling your ex sloppy seconds.



    26. 26

      Re: The real mama of two

      As a mother of two fantastic boys myself, I wanted to tell you I am very sorry for your heartbreak.
      It sounds like you are going to have a very hard time ahead of you. I remember having those nightmares at night of seeing my husband in bed with a faceless woman, me standing next to the bed and watching them together oblivious of me, and waking up sobbing my heart out. The pain was unbearable and I thought I would simply die it because hurt so much. It took a very long time to heal.
      I wish you all the best.
      And always remember, the future is full of promise, and the best is yet to come.
      Gentle kisses.



    27. 27

      Re: The real mama of two – I just want to say that my heart goes out to you. Be strong for your children, you WILL get through this.



    28. 28

      IF HE RETURNS..INGINLA WILL MAKE HIM HIS BITCH !!



    29. 29

      I hope they kick him out. Everyone hates him.

    32. 32

      does his contract cancel out his 1st amendment rights?



    33. 33

      you seriously know NOTHING about the NHL and ice hockey, so shut the fuck up



    34. 34

      Re: LettyB Thanks All Her Fans!Re: orchidgirlRe: harrybalsac Re: rachemnRe: Milky Milky
      Thanks everyone. I can't help but think it's my own fault. He said I had gotten too fat. What an asshole.

    35. kaya says – reply to this


      35

      Re: nikiniki – The reason an incident liket his is taken so seriously is because in the NHL, matters like this are often handled on the ice with hockey stick, often with tragic results (see: Todd Bertuzzi.)



    36. 36

      Re: The real mama of two – WHAT THE FUCK! FUCK HIM! DOES HE LOOK LIKE DAVID BECKHAM OR SOMETHING!!!



    37. 37

      lame… he knows that the Stars making the playoffs this year is probably a longshot, and he just wants out. way to make that happen buddy… Avery is a very smart man..he knew EXACTLY what he was saying and what the backlash would be. i still hate him.



    38. 38

      Re: AmandaJane – WOW YOU DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT HOCKEY DO YOU!



    39. 39

      I dont see the big deal…..besides making that girl out to be some kind of whore that has been passed from man to man until her vigina had to ungergo minor labia-plasty just to look somewhat normal again….
      .
      .
      i dont get it….



    40. 40

      yeah, he shouldn't have said it, but c'mon… indefinatly suspended is a bit extreme, isn't it? ridiculous.



    41. 41

      Re: The real mama of two – No way! He's not really good looking at all. And what a horrible temper. I'm better of without him… probably.



    42. 42

      Re: LettyB Thanks All Her Fans! – Whoops. That last one was meant for you. Sorry.



    43. 43

      Re: The real mama of two – YOU ARE NOT MAMA OF TWO YOU IMPOSTER!!!!!!!!!!!



    44. 44

      He should console himself with a nice Louis Vuitton handbag.



    45. 45

      Re: The real mama of two

      Oh you poor thing.
      You know what , my ex-husband always complained that I am TOO THIN !!!
      I am a former classical ballet dancer, for goodness sake.
      .
      Just take a 30-minute walk around your neighborhood every day, and in a few months the bastard will see you in tight jeans and high heels and he is going to BEG .
      And you'll tell him to get lost.
      And guys will be lining up.



    46. 46

      Sean Avery is a douchebag! The NHL was just looking for a reason to suspend the guy and jumped on the first chance he gave them. I'm Canadian and I'm ashamed to say the same about him. He does not have the heart nor the charisma to be a Canadian hockey player. Send him down to the AHL for a bit until he smartens up!!



    47. 47

      He is hot! I am from Dallas and never noticed him, but, pretty darn hot!!



    48. 48

      Re: The real mama of two – Mama of 2 Hang in there remember it is better to cry one time even if it will be for a month or so then put up with bull and cry day after day!!! You deserve better.



    49. 49

      Re: The real mama of two
      Are you super fat, and smell of Elderberries? I'm tellin ya ladies, unless you give up the purple winking starfish then most men will leave.



    50. 50

      SABRES FANS WELCOME THIS LITTLE BITCH BACK, COME ON TO BUFFALO SO PETERS CAN GET IN THAT ASS AGAIN!



    51. 51

      Re: orchidgirl – YOUR HOT ORCHID!!!



    52. 52

      Betteman has a dick up his ass because Avery is one of the few hockey players that won't kiss his ass.

      Hick's is a fucking jerk too. He's still mad because some magazine showed how much money he was actually losing and now he's little golden butt boys can't run his team anymore.



    53. 53

      Geez - I didn't think it was that bad, sloppy seconds is much better than my whore ex girlfriend, what's the big deal???? It's not like he said she sucks in bed and gives lousy blow jobs. Whatever. I wouldn't have apologized…..well if I was gonna get fired I'd apologize!!



    54. 54

      Suspension and reprimand is understandable, but how is it that Plaxico does something illegal and shoots himself in the leg and is only suspended 4 games and Avery is suspended INDEFINITELY for talking trash??????



    55. 55

      How about an apology to Dion Phaneuf of the Calgary Flames - Elisha's current BF… it WAS a stab directly at him after all…



    56. 56

      this guy looks like a wife beater



    57. 57

      What an ass.

      He apologized to everyone EXCEPT the two people he made the vicious comments about: Dion Phaneuf and Elisha Cuthbert.

      No grace - no class. 360º loser.



    58. 58

      Re: Average Jane – EXACTLY. I love Phaneuf. He's a class act and an amazing talent. Avery is a huge douche. Elisha is a cutie and good for her that she is with a better guy now.



    59. 59

      You get that attitude when your brains have been replaced by a hockey puck!



    60. 60

      im glad he got suspended!
      but what i cant wrap my head around is he is the biggest fuck face in the NHL and all the shit hes done and how many fights he tries to start then backs out and bitches to the ref and all the name calling (tho very entertaining) and THIS is why he gets suspended!!!!
      hes a DICK they've known this for years!
      how are they gonna act like this is the most unacceptable thing hes done?



    61. 61

      Sean, please shut the fuck up.
      Love, everyone.



    62. 62

      He said that shit on purpose. If he had gotten on the ice Phaneuf would have owned his ass. Todd "Psycho Back Breaker" Bertuzzi would have probably ended his career (and his ability to enjoy solid food) as well.
