Nov 03, 2002	3pd 02:52	@ DET	DAL	Rob DiMaio
Comments: After a save by Cujo, DiMaio and Avery exchange hellos and decide to drop the gloves. Because the camera always turns away when players are pushing, we didn't get to see the beginning of the fight. When the camera gets back on the action, DiMaio and Avery are trading lefts. It looked like DiMaio got the better of him landing a couple of nice lefts, but Avery did land a couple flush to DiMaio's face. According to the Stars announcers, Avery won the beginning of the fight and DiMaio the second half.
Voted winner: Rob DiMaio (92.9%) - Voted rating: 6.1

Dec 06, 2002	2pd 03:58	DET	@ DAL	Brenden Morrow
Comments: Avery came out firing and landed two pretty good rights on Morrow. Morrow can't get anything going as Avery lands a couple more to the back of his head. Morrow then catches Avery with a good left, they grapple for a while, and Avery lands one or two more as the linesman come in. Long fight, not too many punches landing though. Other Penalties: Mathieu Dandenault received a tripping.

Dec 19, 2002	1pd 07:04	@ DET	DAL	Stephane Robidas
Comments: Avery throws a hit on Robidas, a little jawing and off come the gloves. They come together with Robidas getting off to a quick start and landing a couple rights. Avery comes back with the left and they exchange blows, each getting in a few. The last right by Robidas looked to stun Avery a bit. He regains himself as his jersey begins to come up. His right arm is free from the jersey now, and he lands a couple to the helmet. Robidas is bent over now and Avery throws a pretty wicked left uppercut which appeared to land, but can't be certain since Avery's fist was caught inside his jersey at the time. They get all tangled up, embrace each other with headlocks and its over.

Dec 23, 2002	2pd 15:03	DET	@ CBJ	Duvie Westcott
Comments: They come out of the box and drop 'em soon after. Both were firing wild punches. Avery lands a few early, with Westcott seemingly off balance. Westcott comes back and eventually drops Avery with a solid shot. Avery attempted to get right back up, but still looked kinda dazed and fell backwards. Other Penalties: Westcott received a game misconduct.

Feb 15, 2003	3pd 14:18	DET	@ ATL	Dan Snyder
Comments: Snyder had leveled Boyd Devereaux with a hit earlier, so Avery plays enforcer and looks for payback late in the third. They drop 'em and Avery tosses some early rights and takes control while Snyder lands a good shot late. Avery then gets the takedown.

Mar 18, 2003	3pd 15:38	@ LOS	CAL	Jarome Iginla
Comments: Iginla checks Avery and Avery falls. Before Avery even gets up Iginla drops his gloves and skates backwards waiting for Sean to get up and drop 'em. Iginla also takes off his helmet (Visor) as does Sean and they have a long, fair squareoff and it looks like Avery just jumps in, both throwing a couple that do not land. Iginla has Avery in a odd position, but Avery manages to throw a short punch that lightly connects to Iggy's face (no damage) and Avery's jersey is over his head aa Iginla throw's 2 noogies to Avery's head. Its all over then. It looked like Avery tried to throw more then Iginla.

Mar 31, 2003	2pd 19:14	LOS	@ PHO	Branko Radivojevic
Comments: After the whistle Rado get his stick up high on Avery and Avery grabs him and starts chucking rights. Rado drives him into the boards and Avery just kept throwing rights, just hitting the back of his head, maybe one uppercut might have landed. Rado threw nothing and the linesmen came in because Rado's jersey was over his head. Avery had a serious pissed off face the whole time he was fighting.

Apr 02, 2003	3pd 19:56	@ LOS	COL	Serge Aubin
Comments: Marchment runs Lappy, and everbody pairs off as the game wind's down. Avery grabs Aubin, throws a right to Aubin's temple up against the boards. Aubin's got the sheild on and doesn't look interested. They jockey along the boards and Avery gets his right cocked. Some twirling and Avery throws two rights to Aubin's helmet. Aubin looks to throw a right that has nothing on it as Avery is trying to get Aubin's helmet/sheild off. Avery throws an uppercut to Aubin's ribs, then a right to the back of Aubin's neck. Two nothing rights from Avery and Aubin's trying to get him down. Avery is pinned on the boards now and still trying to get Aubin's lid off. Aubin's got his left pushed into Avery's face. Avery tries an uppercut to the body, then looks to land a decent uppercut to Aubin's cheek. Avery misses a right, a jerseyed left, then another right. Other Penalties: Bryan Marchment and Aaron Miller each received a roughing.
