Malik Drops Avery in Practice

Feb 06, 2008 1:03 PM David M Singer

Sam Weinman posts this report about a heated Rangers practice:

If I hadn’t seen Sean Avery and Marek Malik throwing punches at one another during practice today, I wouldn’t have believed it.

But what had been a mere one-on-one battle during drills today quickly escalated into shoves and then an all-out fight between the 6-foot-6 Malik and the 5-10 Avery, lasting maybe 30 seconds before it eventually ended. For those scoring at home, we’ll call it Malik by TKO.

Words were exchanged after that. At one point, Avery could be heard saying, “Why don’t you play like that in a game?”

Avery knows what he’s talking about! Malik does need to toughen up.Hes a big dude but he wouldnt do good at all in a fight with a guy his size.He’d get murdered!!
