    They're two of the most familiar faces in this country: for over 25 years, Ron MacLean and Don Cherry have teamed up on 'Coach's Corner' every Saturday night. As Hockey Night celebrates its 60th season, and a new book - 'Hockey Night In Canada: 60 Seasons' - in stores, there was lots to talk about when Ron & Don sat in the red chair.
    George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight airs Weeknights at 7 pm on CBC Television

      Don Cherry brainwashed the people of Canada to hate other countries! Lunatic Cherry claiming players from USA Finland Russia CzechRepulic Sweden Slovakia are Ilegal aliens not good! Scum bag Cherry said Auston Matthews is missing the net his many shots! Matthews higher shooting average than Connor McDavid! In 1980s NHL 8 goals per game! Today only 6 goals per game! Matthews have scored 54 goals in 63 games this season! If Matthews had played In 1982 he would had scored over 100 goals easily beating Gretzky's 92 goal record! Ovechkin ERA only 5,3-6 goals per game! If Ovechkin had played high scoring 1980s he would had scored over 1200 goals easily! Canada have 650000 hockey players! Ovechkin's Russia under 100000 hockey players! Canada should have 7 guys who have scored over 800 goals like Ovechkin! Canada 650000 players! USA have 500000 players! CzechRepulic 100000 players! Russia under 100000 hockey players! Finland 73000 players! Sweden only 65000 players! Canada Lost bsdly olympics in 2006! Sweden won! Canada ten times More players than little Sweden and you lose! CzechRepulic won in 1998 olympics! Canada 7 times More players than CzechRepulic and you can not beat the!!

    Thanks for your service to Veterans and Canada Don. Your truly a legend of the game. I'm not a fan of Hockey but watching your enthusiasm for the game and Canada in general has always been endearing.
    As a Veteran of 3 conflicts I know if i had to stand toe to toe with the enemy again, i'd rather be there with you than the chicken shits that run Sportnest and Rogers!!!!!
    Thanks for speaking the truth.

I use to watch that show all the time as a young lad with my Mom&Dad & would always watch the Don Cherry "Rock Em Sock Em" VHS tapes before my hockey games to pump myself up & watch Wendel Clark,Jon Kordic,Cam Neely,Marty Mcsorely,Bob Probert,Scott Stevens,Geno Odjick,Dave Manson,Bryan Marchment & that would get my juices flowing lol.

    I can't imagine not having Don Cherry & Ron McLean every Saturday night.Those two are one of a kind together,not even the States has anything close to these two.Terry Bradshaw & John Madden don't even come close to Cherry & McLean.I watched the CBC Don Cherry tribute show that was split up into I think 2-4 shows or something like that,but I forget his name who played Don Cherry but wow what a tremendous job that bloke did of playing Don Cherry.HNIC won't be the same without Grapes & McLean!!

    • @gordiehowl3553
      @gordiehowl3553 5 років тому

      What like Nick Kypreos is ? George was put in a spot where he took the brunt of CBC's bumping Ron MacLean out of that spot. Strombo does absolute best interviews which is why high quality people that don't normally do interviews only did interviews on the Strombo show. There is no reason why George couldn't excel on that HNIC show. I felt that group of Announcers didn't help pull at 100% to help ease George into that job as they were caught up with showing loyalties towards Ron Mac and Don .... CBC Screwed up by ousting Ron instead of slowly blending them into it and slowly phasing Ron out (which has to happen sometime) ....

    • @number7717

  • @laurielyon7740
    @laurielyon7740 5 років тому

    George should be applauded for addressing Cherry’s penchant for inserting subjects that DO NOT belong on a hockey broadcast.
    When the US invaded Iraq, Cherry admonished Jean Chretien for not joining the alliance and not sending Canadian troops.
    Cherry, as he often is, was out of his depth on that, as subsequent events in Iraq proved. The US invasion was an unmitigated disaster.
    And Ron McLean diminishes himself when he acts as an apologist for Don Cherry.
    And Cherry’s speech at Toronto City Hall, when Rob Ford was elected mayor, should have been an embarrassment for Cherry and the CBC. Cherry referred to Ford’s adversaries as ‘Pinkos’. Rob Ford as mayor, as Torontonians well know, was embarrassment to the city. But Cherry was there for his friend and fellow nitwit.
    And I’m not entirely sure why Cherry is regarded as the guru of coaching.
    He never won anything.
    Who cares about Coach of The Year in Two Leagues, as Cherry often trots out?
    In Boston, he had eleven 20 goal scorers on the team when he was provided that honour. Helen Keller could have coached that team.
    Remember............we’ve all won as many Stanley Cups as has Don Cherry.
