Sean Avery appeared in court yesterday in New York

Former NHL pest Sean Avery is charged with criminal mischief and appeared in court in New York today.

In February 2019, Avery allegedly deliberately orchestrated a collision, having hit a car blocking the bike lane with his scooter.

The vehicle belonged to Jonathan Shulhof, who is the co-founder of the Ventures company. He was accompanied by the daughter of billionaire Henry Kravis.

The TVA Sports website reports that the former NHL player wanted to represent himself, but a judge made him change his mind.
