Avery’s antics to get under Brodeur’s skin were enough to warrant a snub by Brodeur after the teams lined up to shake hands after the Rangers win Friday night. “I guess he forgot to shake my hand,” Avery told the press.

I happened to have caught that moment on camera. It was a mutual snub. Both men were purposely ignoring each other.
