Rotten Cherry

You know sometimes people who know their own sport do not appreciate the good things in life about it and put their own narrow politics in front of it. Here's one of those examples.

Minus xenophobia and racism, Cherry has point about Ovechkin





Now all of a sudden Don Cherry wants the NHL to act like the NFL (No Fun League) and doesn't want Canadians to act and celebrate like soccer-like "non-Canadians". Let me remind him that if it wasn't for American teams in the NHL (NATIONAL, not Canadian, Hockey League) and the Americans, Russian, Czech and other hockey players of different nationalities, race & ethnicity around the world, the league would be struggling financially and be in a terrible condition compared to their current one.

A black eye in NHL = good momentum for MLS and soccer in the USA and Canada.
