Surprise, surprise....
DALLAS -- The Dallas Stars and New York Rangers would not comment on a report that the Rangers have had front-office talks about the possibility of bringing back suspended Stars forward Sean Avery.
The New York Post said Friday that Rangers general manager Glen Sather was expected to speak to Stars co-GM Les Jackson about a timetable under which Dallas would place Avery -- who left the Rangers in the offseason to sign with the Stars -- on waivers.
If the Rangers were to reacquire Avery, they would be responsible for half of the rest of the his four-year, $15.5 million contract. For Avery to be eligible for the playoffs, the Rangers would have to pick him up before the March 4 trade deadline.
