Don Cherry & the Coach's Corner | 2018/2019

[Messrules11]

Grapes is right again. If I want to watch hockey I'll watch the NHL, and if the circus is in town maybe I'll watch that. It's that simple.

Yup, pathetic to see professionals do such things

 

[mikeyfan]

Amazing how so called hockey fans hate the idea of the players interacting with the fans. The storm surge brings players and fans together for a moment of celebration, so what is the harm. To me the real Jerks are those who condemn the surge. You can bet if it had been your team that did this you’d be praising it

 

[Dr Pepper]

I love how Don sticks to his guns. Despite the backlash of his Carolina comments he stands by what he believes and does not back pedal.

Well yeah, stubbornness is one of his trademarks.

If he's ever right about something, by golly he's going to crow about it the entire segment.

If he's ever wrong about something, he never admits it. Usually you can just tell by Ron's exasperation that Don won't budge.

I'm still blown away at his lack of self-awareness following this latest rant, though. For a man who has as much fun playing dress-up as Don Cherry does, you'd think he of all people would see the irony in his crying over an NHL team doing something "outside the box" for fun and attention.

 

[Breakers]

Don Cherry about to go on the biggest rant in history about the Canucks Trading Gudbranson.

 

[Jussi]

"What are you looking at...anyhooo"

 

[Del Preston]

Someone tell Don they can't fit 17K into Nassau.

The attendance for the Leafs-Isles and Caps-Isles was the same.

 

[Jussi]

"what do you call it, email or something...."

 

[Jester9881]

Someone tell that idiot that NVMC only holds about 13k

 

[Jussi]

He REALLY loves looking at himself in suits.

 

[TeddyBare]

"Richardson sat out an entire year being a healthy scratch with a broken leg"

what?

 

[Deedog99]

He's an idiot. All about his Leafs. Pretty embarrassing for him really.

 

[Howie Hodge]

You all criticize, yet you watch him!!

I hate (Ryhmes with Dock) Emrick. But I mute him.

Use your remotes!

And they embrace him in Raleigh now!

I've never watched him live before. He happened to just show up on the NHL network, but when he said the Islanders drew 17,000 at the coliseum Thursday for the Toronto game and only 13,000 for Washington on Friday in a place that only fits about 13,900, I assumed he had a few too many shots before he got on camera, lol...

Don't get me wrong, he's often more mouth than substance these days.

His being off on the capacity of Nassau is a little concerning to be sure.

And I doubt it's shots that caused him to misspeak...

My point is people follow him despite proclaiming to hate him. I'll stop short of making a political statement, but there are certain people I simply can't watch - so I don't.

 

[Fenway]

His producer Kathy Broderick is taking the blame on that - she misread the attendance charts and told Don

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Dear Don, Zaitsev is plus 4 this year and plus 8 last year. Might wanna make the tiniest effort to at least know the stats before you drop them on us.

Who's forcing you to watch? If you hate him, don't watch.

He didn’t just happen to show up, that’s the Hockey Night in Canada broadcast that the NHL Network shows on the weekends. You couldn’t tell they were using the Canadian feed for the games?

NHL Network has been doing that forever, and it’s cool for us in the States because it gives Americans the Canadian perspective of the game.

 

[Dr Pepper]

Those who know the least, know it the loudest.

Well Don's living proof of that, one might say.

 

[BigEezyE22]

such a strange argument. It's a 30 second add-on after the game is complete. It isn't being substituted for "hockey." (If I want watch original programming, I'll watch Netflix, and if Kenny Chesney comes to town, maybe I'll watch that. #weird #umok)

On top of that, does it even make it on TV (or did it before it became "controversial?")?

 

[Ahoy there]

Local broadcasting has shown it from the beginning. I'm not really sure if we've even been on a national broadcast at home so I can't say.

Exactly.

So none of the people bitching about it actually see it unless they go looking for something to bitch about.

 

[Iapyi]

Who's forcing you to watch? If you hate him, don't watch.

I find it intriguing how so many "experts" whine and complain like little children but watch him anyway.

Then they have the audacity to call him an idiot.

Some folk really have no class or respect and they come across like complete and total morons.

 

[Merya]

I don't watch him. but honestly, he's always been an idiot, a behind the times idiot. Nowadays it's just magnified. I don't think anyone really takes him seriously anymore. He's a demented old man living in the past, who might actually be a elderly sick man exploited by the network for shits and giggles.
