Coach's Corner led off with this suspension, and then deteriorated into the topic of anti-aboriginal bias. It had to have been the strangest, most surreal segment I'd ever seen Maclean and Cherry do. Cherry ended up so flustered with Maclean bringing up Simon's racial status that neither one of them were able to really make their point. Very odd.

suggesting that this was in any way racist is only going to make the first nations look like idiots. this is his 8th suspension after all.

actually, avery is a decent fighter. the other two can't fight at all. Actually Avery is a backstabbing weasel who picks his opponents very carefully. |

yes, but he CAN fight. Holweg, Hordichuk, Ruutu, and Nazarov are part of a group of guys that start crap but can't actually fight, so they turtle every time.

Avery is a turtle and Hordichuk is one of the guys he turtled against. Avery picks and chooses his fights... Tucker twice Richards twice Morrow Perry Hinote Ballard Jovanovski Fisher Ott Leclerc Hordichuk----Turtle after hitting Kariya from behind Sillinger Rob Brown etc,etc,etc My point is guys like Avery will not go looking for the real enforcer to fight with...they will spear the tough guys, they will yap at the tough guys, they will even try to goad a tough guy into dropping his gloves and then turtling...and that is what is wrong with hockey. Guys like Avery and Ruutu should get misconducts and unsportsmanlikes every single time they pull that crap. Hockey should be an honest game... |

Thats why he has a job...because people will react to him and take penalties. This wont ever change, there will always be the Avery's of the league running around talking shit and drawing penalties. |
