Controversy isn't anything new for super pest Sean Avery, but his most recent comments may have crossed the line, and then some. Avery was quoted as saying, "I'm really happy to be back in Calgary, happy to be back in Canada, and I just want to comment that it's become a common thing in the NHL for guys to fall in love with my sloppy seconds, I don't know what that's about, but enjoy the game." referring to Calgary Flames star defense man Dion Phaneuf's girlfriend awho just happens to be Avery's ex-girlfriend, Elisha Cuthbert (TV series 24).

After Avery had made those comments regarding Phaneuf's girlfriend, the Dallas Stars suspended the forward indefinitely. NHL commissioner Gary Bettman said Avery's comments were "detrimental to the league or game of hockey."

This isn't anything new for Avery, who played previously for teams like the New York Rangers, Detroit Red Wings, and L.A Kings. His mouth seems to get him more attention in the hockey world than his hockey skills. You might even be able to compare him to NFL superstar Terrel Owens, except Avery is no superstar. In his first season since signing with the Dallas Stars, Avery has three goals and seven assists, for a toal of ten points in 23 games played. All this for a salary of just under four million per season.
