Cherry bashes Ovechkin.



Don Cherry openly rips AO tonight on CBC. As a Canadian, I typically don't mind Cherry. But in his weekly segment, it almost sounds as if he champions the thought of someone laying out Ovechkin for how he celebrates goals.

The thing is, Ovechkin and Cherry aren't that different. While AO may be "excessive" in his on ice celebrations, Cherry is much the same in how he handles himself on the Coaches Corner.

Mr. Pot, please meet Mr. Kettle.

Don, your shtick is growing old.

Don Cherry's bashing of Ovechkin last night was off base but his trashing of Pavel Datsuyk and Henrik Zetterberg was truly nothing but anti-European xenophobic "sour grapes." Even though his role on "Hockey Night in Canada" is iconic, it's time his schtick got toned down. The guy is just pushing the envelope so much soon his commentary will become totally irrelevant.

LETS GO CAPS!!!!
