They're still doing Coach's Corner and Ron is hosting something on Sunday nights I believe. WTF are you talking about? He looks like a druggie and a punk? You're worried about how they look infront of your kids yet here you are judging and belittling the guy without knowing a thing about him? lol
You're right though, Don Cherry and his, lets say opinions, are a much better example for children to look up to.
Give me a break.
Hope this is a troll post.

Don Cherry was on the Fan today and said him and Ron will still be doing saturday coaches corner, nothing will be changing.

A non-hockey guy who started on broadcasting doing hockey? A druggie? Anti clean living? What are you talking about. Yeah, I guess a better example would be to teach people to judge a guy because he has tattoos and piercing.
You really need to get over the "he's a habs fan". He's a professional. It really doesn't matter if he is fan of any team. Relax.
I haven't seen anything about Jim Hughson and Craig Simpson getting fired?

General LL Welcome back 
I didn't like the hiring for strombo either. A habs fan, non hockey guy. We'll see how it goes.
Don't kid yourself, Don and Ron are on the way out. Ron might stay in another capacity but not as you are used to.

Don is great but really really really old. It had to happen some time. Strombo is not nearly the same but hopefully he has the ambition to succeed in the role. If not then he will be replaced. There will never be another Don Cherry, that's just the way that life works. Don will be there until the bitter end I am pretty sure.

He does kinda look like someone who smells of Tobacco and Smoke but I've never smelled Strombo so who knows.

Guy's get a clue. Coaches corner is not changing at all in the forseeable future. Strombo is going to being the job like the chick does now

I'm just fine with Cherry and MacLean thank you very much.
If MacLean leaves, that will be a National travesty. They should take that day off of school.
And I like Strombo. He's great. But mmm, ya no I"m good.
I just don't like change basically I think. Bring back Cole and Neale as well. Cole calling the last one in Montreal, that was amazing. He's still got it, he's still the best.

OP, you're worried about how this guy looks and how he will influence your children, yet you consider hockey a cherished past time.. Do you even realize what goes on behind the scenes and in the locker rooms? You think growing up, that these hockey players aren't out getting hammered, trying drugs, having girls throwing themselves at them.. you think that's a good influence? You're worried enough about a guys look that his intelligence and personality are worth nothing in your eyes, yet you'll excuse the close-minded and xenophobic things Cherry has spewed over the years and choose him as an ideal role model?
Your children might be in trouble, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's not because of the influence of a man they see every saturday night on TV.
Furthermore.. If you think Strombo has a bad influential look.. You better bar the doors, cancel the cable and internet, and stay huddled in a cupboard with your children forever so they aren't exposed to the horrors of this world..

I think generalizing hockey players as promiscuous, drug-using party animals is sending the wrong message in any case.

Strombo started out as a sports reporter covering hockey and basketball. He also loves hockey just as much as anyone on these boards. Bob Cole is a habs fan too, don't see that getting in the way off him doing his job.
Your druggie comments are just flat out ignorant and i'm not sure how they're even allowed on here, but i digress.
Hockey has "clean living culture"? Are you joking?
Oh my god. He has a nose ring and wears t-shirts on TV! HIDE YOUR CHILDREN!

C'mon OP........ drugs are great.
On a serious note, they obviously have to phase Cherry out. Do you realize how old he is? I love Don and Ron, and it will never be the same without them... but Strombo is actually a really solid host. I think he's a very good choice.

Strombo is great. I guess the older fans don't like it and think Strombo is a hippie know nothing hockey guy but they'll learn to like him. He knows his stuff.
It's not like he will be analysing and dissecting hockey plays, he's hosting for crying out loud. The anger towards this is reaching comedic level of absurdity.

Wow, I hope you don't work in any sort of police capacity, because this is straight up profiling.
