Sean Avery to Nashville?

by Aditya T (smashville) on Mar 1, 2009 9:19 PM EST

Canada's National Post is rumoring that Sean Avery could be claimed by the Predators. We would have to pay $2 million per year

3. Nashville or Toronto: Two franchises who could use Avery for reasons besides his play. For the Predators, Avery would generate the headlines that could bring their attendance numbers up to qualify for the NHL's revenue sharing agreement...

I know we may need the attention, but still, do we want to take the bad media coverage too?

I think that Tootoo does the job by being a fan favorite. Let's let the organization focus more on getting a goal scorer than an agitator

While I could see the Preds possibly taking on Avery for hockey purposes, the notion that Poile would claim him in a bid to sell tickets and make the revenue sharing target is ONE OF THE DUMBEST THINGS I’ve read in a long, long time.

More fun than a stick to the face!
On the Forecheck is SB Nation's blog covering the Nashville Predators.

Sean Avery

You know smashville, I don’t think that he deserves a spot with Nashville. We dont need to bring our team down with a player like him. And not to mention that my next door neighbor is part of the reason he got in so much trouble. She was harrasing him in the penalty box at a Preds game and he said some very rude things to her, and thank God the ref heard him. So in my opinion, no he should not be picked up by Nashville.

Avery

I agree that we definitely don’t need another agitator, because we already have Tootoo to fill that spot. Obviously the team needs to focus on being more all-around good than trying to add another player like Jordin Tootoo, so I agree that this would be a dumb move.
