Pierre McGuire is recounting a story involving Martin Lapointe and Avery. I guess Avery was doing his 'chirping' thing and Lapointe had enough.

You are going to end up in a world of pain if this continues."

He also told a story about Avery telling Eric Lindros that he should give his gold medal to Joe Thornton because he deserves it more!
