Sean Avery brutally roasts Brady Tkachuk, Nick Suzuki, and the NHL's Skills Competition.
Avery is ruthless.
Sean Avery has never been a man known for keeping his opinions to himself and on Friday night he once again shared his thoughts with the world, only this time the National Hockey League and a number of their young stars were the target of his ire.
To put it mildly it would appear as though Avery was not at all a fan of the first night of NHL's All-Star festivities set to take place over the course of the weekend, with Avery ruthlessly roasting the league over what he deemed to be poor decisions from top to bottom. Avery went in on a variety of topics ranging from the Skills Competition to players like Montreal Canadiens forward Nick Suzuki and Ottawa Senators forward Brady Tkachuk, and he didn't pull a single punch.
Avery roasted Suzuki for wearing what he deemed to be dirty shoes, wondering out loud why the young Canadiens forward couldn't be bothered to get himself a clean pair for the All-Star Game's events.
"Glad that Suzuki could bust out a new pair of sneakers for the event," said Avery, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Look at how dirty his shoes are."
Suzuki was participating in what was perhaps the most bizzare skills event the league has ever introduced into the All-Star weekend, and he once again was not shy about letting everyone know exactly how much he hated it.
"This is electric television," said Avery, once again his voice full of sarcasm. "Just electric, unbelievable All-Star, this is just incredible. Electric television, this is electric honestly. They make them smack on the puck and then the puck lights up... who are the f***ing geniuses that came up with this? This is incredible, electric television. Look at the camera, close cam.... electric. This is ridiculous, this whole thing is ridiculous. I wanna watch the best players in the world take breakaways on the best goalies in the world, I don't wanna watch this bad theatre. This is so embarrassing."
Avery also mocked Ottawa Senators captain Brady Tkachuk for his choice of attire during the events on Friday night.
"Who dressed Brady Tkachuk? He's got a pair of Adidas NMDs on from 7 years ago," said Avery. "Oh my god, I don't even understand what are we watching right now? I wanna watch the best players in the world.... not this guy in street clothes."
