When the season ends, Ranger enforcer Sean Avery will be trading in his Blueshirt for couture shirts.

Hockey's hottest

Photos: They're Stanley Cup winners that are easy on the eyes. Here are some of the NHL's players that are hot both on and off the ice.

Avery, who helped the Rangers, get into the second round of the playoffs, will join Vogue magazine as an intern some time after the team's run ends. He hopes to become a fashion editor one day.

Avery's summer job was first reported by Page Six Magazine.

Of course, the internship also will put Avery in the company of some very attractive women, something not unfamiliar to him. He has been linked in the past to Elisha Cuthbert and Mary Kate Olsen among others.

But Avery isn't exactly known for being the highbrow type.

The Post has learned that he was summoned to NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman's office last Tuesday for a lecture in comportment after he made an obscene gesture at a camera crew taping last Monday's practice.

The NHL even amended a rule during the Rangers' first-round series against the New Jersey Devils because of Avery. Bettman made an addendum to the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after Avery's antics during a power play.

During the man advantage, Avery attempted to distract Devils goalie Martin Broduer's by waving his arms and stick in front of face, all with his back turned to the puck. It was a play frowned upon by NHL officials and Broduer, who refused to shake Avery's hand when the series concluded.
