Avery walked over to the group and asked if there was a camera present. When confirmed, he said, “I’m just going to say one thing.”

“I’m really happy to be back in Calgary; I love Canada. I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the NHL for guys to fall in love with my (former girlfriends). I don’t know what that’s about, but enjoy the game tonight.”

Avery’s ex-girlfriend, actress Elisha Cuthbert is dating Calgary defenseman Dion Phaneuf and she had been romantically linked to Mike Komisarek of the Montreal Canadiens. Avery also dated Rachel Hunter who is now the girlfriend of Los Angeles Kings center Jarrett Stoll.
