- Former NHL professional hockey player.
- Co-owner of Warren 77, an upscale sports bar in Manhattan's TriBeCa neighborhood.
- He was featured in People magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive" issue in 2007.
- He has a strong interest in fashion and had an internship at Vogue magazine in 2008. This, contrasted with his aggressive, hard-nosed play on the ice (he has twice led the National Hockey League in penalty minutes), led New Line Cinema to option a screenplay based on his "double life".
- December 2, 2008, Avery called out fellow hockey players in relationships with his ex-girlfriends, Elisha Cuthbert and Rachel Hunter, using the term "sloppy seconds". Avery was suspended from play for 6 games and subsequently removed from the Dallas Stars lineup and demoted to their affiliate team, Hartford Wolfpack.
