Sean Avery was rushed to a Manhattan hospital on Wednesday morning in cardiac arrest just hours after his team's playoff loss, the New York Daily News reported, citing unnamed sources.
Avery was unconscious and not breathing, the newspaper reported.
A source at St. Vincent's Medical Center said Avery, 28, arrived at about 3 a.m. Wednesday morning. Hours earlier, the Rangers lost 5-3 in the Stanley Cup playoffs against the Pittsburgh Penguins at Madison Square Garden.
A source close to the team confirmed Avery had been rushed to the hospital, but declined to offer any specifics, the Daily News reported. |

Someone just sent me this...pretty big difference between a lacerated spleen and cardiac arrest...
Sean Avery has a lacerated spleen and will be out the remainder of the season, sources tell TSN.
The source went on to say that the laceration was detected with a CT scan after Avery was taken to hospital following the Game 3 with the Penguins.
The New York Rangers expect Avery to make a full recovery in the off-season.
The 28-year-old winger played over 14 minutes in the Rangers 5-3 loss to the Penguins on Wednesday. He recorded one assist and had three shots on net.
During the regular season Avery picked up 15 goal and 18 assists, with a plus-6 rating over his 57 games. He has four goals and three assists in eight playoff games.

Injury must be far more serious than reported. Obvious head trauma with short term (through the free agent signing period) mental trauma. WHAT IS AVERY THINKING
Avery signs with STARS
