Frolov denies saying that Avery said what Avery previously denied saying he said
In Germany as he trains for the upcoming KHL season [...], Frolov was stunned to learn that he had caused such a stir with words that he did not say. "I didn’t have a chance to read the article," Frolov told the Daily News by phone. "[...] They asked me about Aves and I said he’s a friend of mine and a really nice guy. What I said was that he, in the past, used to have problems where he could say something, but he’s a really nice person and good friend of mine." [...] [The] interview with Frolov [...] saying that Avery "called opponents ‘black monkeys.’" Frolov vehemently denied having said that. "I didn’t say anything about Aves calling someone bad language – I was saying he’s really emotional and that in the past he could say the wrong thing," Frolov told The News. "It wasn’t particularly about black people. He doesn’t have anything against black people. I mean, he’s a nice person, and he wouldn’t say something bad about black people or Asian people or any kind of people. It’s some kind of misunderstanding."

All this does is make me wonder what Avery said about Asian people now.

Coming from Avery?
Anybody who lets Avery get to you, is a monkey for falling for it. He has 1 agenda, 1 agenda only. To piss you off, and he’s the best I’ve ever seen at it.
Frolov is Penner in Russian…
The more you drink, the less gruesome I look.

He wouldn’t say something bad about black people or Asian people or any kind of people.
I gotta say, somehow the bolded made me chuckle, and I pictured Avery dressed as Stuart Smalley doing a Daily Affirmation.
Now that I think of it...
Frolov probably meant Avery wouldn’t say something bad about “any kind of people… Well except French Frogs, but they’re not really people, right?”

I’m sure he’s going “I was trying to talk about Avery’s role as an agitator, and how he’s matured…instead it all blew up”
Poor awkward Fro.

Well, I guess LAPD aren’t part of the “or any kind of people” group. He allllllegedlllyyyyy called the cops who showed up at his place “Fat little pigs”
