Sean Avery has been placed on re-entry waivers by the New York Rangers. The Rangers are the second team to place Avery on re-entry waivers since he agreed to his current four-year/$13.5 million contract. That being said, unlike the Dallas Stars who placed him on re-entry waivers in the hope that he would be claimed, the New York Rangers might actually want to use him. If he clears re-entry waivers, Avery could play on Thursday.
