When the Rangers’ so-called “bad boy” Sean Avery was rushed to a Manhattan hospital with a lacerated spleen, apparently suffered in an unscheduled collision with a Pittsburgh defenseman in Tuesday night’s playoff loss to Pittsburgh, the New York Daily News (to my pride and joy) called Canada Free Press (CFP).

It was with trepidation that I first dialed the number at the Avery residence. After all, the print media already had the Rangers forward in cardiac arrest and unconscious.
Sean’s kid brother Scott, who will be 20 in August, answered the telephone.

When I explained my dilemma that I very much wanted some quotes for the Daily News, young Scott was most accommodating.

“My Dad drove my Mom to the airport and she should be enroute to Sean right now,” Scott told me. “Sean is lying in that hospital bed with his cell phone and I have been text messaging him.”

Scott, Sean’s biggest fan ever since Sean’s Ontario Hockey League (OHL) days, told me he knew for certain that his big brother was on the mend, “because now he’s getting angry that he’s out of the game even though the Rangers may be out for the season by tomorrow night.”
