Voldemort's Comment in the Graveyard Scene

Hi all! I don't know if this was brought up before, but I
don't recall seeing it, so I'll put this idea to you guys. 


In Chapter 33, "The Death Eaters" GoF, US Edition Voldemort
says, "And here we have six missing Death Eaters...three
dead in my service.  One, too cowardly to return...he will
pay.  One, who I believe has left me forever...he will be
killed, of course..."

Ok, so I know that I, and many people, have assumed that
the last part ("...left me forever...") referred to
Severus, but as I was re-reading GoF (again)something stood
out to me.  In Chapter 27, "Padfoot Returns", Sirius is
listing the names of various Death Eaters, and he says,
"Avery--from what I've heard he wormed his way out of
trouble by saying that he'd been acting under the Imperius
Curse--he's still at large."  Now do you guys think that
maybe Voldemort was actually referring to HIM as opposed to
Severus?  Maybe that was thrown in there to set us off on
the wrong track?  What do YOU guys think?  Possible or am I
grasping at straws, here?
