AHL Next Stop For Avery...?

So, it appears the New York Rangers American Hockey League brethren may be the next go-round for Sean Avery's ((pictured, thanks Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)) sloppy seconds...


The Hartford Wolf Pack of the AHL will likely be the destination for Sean Avery's return to professional hockey.

But at this point, the New York Rangers and their top minor league affiliate have yet to finalize an arrangement with the Dallas Stars to provide a home for Avery in the event he clears waivers on Monday.

Assuming an agreement is reached with the Stars, Avery would clear waivers and Dallas would assign him to the AHL. The forward isn't expected to report to Hartford before Tuesday.

The Wolf Pack will host the Manitoba Moose on Wednesday.
