Don Cherry Blasts Slava Fetisov

[southwardwill]

Fetisov was known for being the dirtiest player in the league

[Donni95innes]

Wait!.... don't run it yet mark!

[Voss009]

The Top 2 comments are people ragging on Cherry?? They must be Fetisov fans that never grew up learning how hockey was suppose to be played, rather they learned what their child molesting communist coach or father taught them.

[peacenforcer]

what an extraordinary brainless shithead Don the Moron Cherry is!!!

The magnitude of his preposterousness and clownery never ceases to amaze!!

What i find puzzling though is how many canadians think of him as their "hockey mentor"?! I mean: if your mentor is SO f.cking braindead, what does it say about u?! I presume nothing good.

[Kipperluongo]

@peacenforcer Oh yeah we should all listen to you right? I mean you have played, coached and won coach of the year in the NHL and run one of the most watched shows on CBC. Don Cherry is a god and knows what he's talking about. Get off the internet immediately

[peacenforcer]

@Kipperluongo It's exactly because people listen to such "gods" that the world we live in is such an infinitely FUCKED UP place.

Bad news for u, kipperluongo, you are one of the obvious brainwashed contributors to the current dire current state of affairs. Keep admiring idiots and imbeciles, pal. After all, it's not without reason they say: "Every idiot will always find an even bigger idiot to admire".

Your are a perfect fit for this proverbial idiot.

[Kipperluongo]

@peacenforcer Well people generally listen to people that know what they're talking about. I would prefer Don Cherry over you for one fact, he knows everything about hockey, you don't. He's been around hockey his entire life and he knows what's going on. Fetisov is a cheapshot end of story

[HitemupWhoshotya]

@peacenforcer no fuckin canadian thinks don cherry as their mentor unless their morons. Shut the fuck up you dumb ass american

[camerondiaztwin]

Cherry is such a pompous ass. FFS, pronounce the man's name correctly, Don. It ain't rocket science.

[Voss009]

@camerondiaztwin Fuck you, Don Cherry is a legend for his Outbursts like this one. he Highlights the dirty scum in the league all the way from back then to this very day.

[camerondiaztwin]

@Voss009 Yeah, I know he's a legend for outbursts like this one. And your point is?

He's a pompous ass.

[carcaril]

hahaah what a clown 40 games for high stick.

[BBQFanNo1]

Russians are nothing. Like Cherry said, The Flyers and Sabres exposed the Red Army as nothing but overhyped behind the Iron Curtain Commie Borsh Manure propaganda

[cronin098]

@BBQFanNo1 Right. The NHL is MAYBE 5% Russian, yet a lot of them seem to be some of the best players in the league. Look at Sergei Federov, Alex Ovechkin, Pavel Datsyuk, Evgeny Malkin, Ilya Kovalchuk and so on. I mean, you could argue that Canada is the better hockey nation, but Russia definitely produces their fair share of amazing players.

[LOLXBOX420]

@cronin098 Thanks for pointing out these players they have no heart , they never back check, and never even play with emotion.

Kovalchuk literally Destroyed the NJ Devils franchise cause of that terrible signing.

[cronin098]

@LOLXBOX420 lol You could maybe make a case for Datsyuk because he doesn't throw a fit any time someone hits him, but Ovechkin is SO full of passion and Malkin's the biggest drama queen on the ice. Kovalchuk and Federov have as much passion as any other player.

[theone456]

@BBQFanNo1

so everytime Russia beats Canada they can say the same thing? Canada is nothing?

[BBQFanNo1]

Should send Ed Van Impe,Bobby Clarke and the 1976 Philadelphia Flyers after Commie Fetisov

[Letyaga1]

ни хера не понятно, но старый жжетъ.

он что, на наших порчу наводил? шаман. я все ждала, что он пальцем в глаз соседу ткнет.

[cokenEbachio]

haha typical russian high stick then a changed tampon

[ARod016]

I watch this show just for Ron MacLean's reaction sometimes, lol

[Forsure3333]

He should have been arrested. A few milimeters to the left, and Lemieux lost an eye.

[deniswashere]

omfg i bet if a canadian wud have gotten suspended 30 games and fetisov wudnt have for slashing in the face, then cherry wud have commited suicide!!

[ghettoTV1]

wear visors assholes

cherry can suck my sweaty balls

[deniswashere]

@ghettoTV1 AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!!!­!!!!!

[levanyzzuf]

Wow. Shit like this happens every game now and they call it "2 minutes for high sticking".

[konank666]

Wow, you're pretty dumb and also a giant hypocrite to boot.

Congrats!

[neeson16]

Probably something else I should mention; 5 straight World Junior Golds for Canada. And you probably shouldn't lump Canada and America together, as well as all of Europe. Because if you want to compare Canada and America to European countries, I can easily pull out Belarus, Germany, England, Italy, etc... And those countries are pretty bad at hockey.

[neeson16]

Yeah, North American hockey sucks. Look at the NHL, there are 0 of the top players from countries like Sweeden, Russia, Czech Rep, Finland, Slovakia and Switzerland. It's completely and 100% all Canadian and American players. And players play in their hometowns too. Ovechkin is probably the best player to come out of the DC area, same with Lundqvist being from New York and Chara being from Boston. Oh, wait a tic, those guys are from other countries. Whoops.

[andrebaker35]

what about clarkes cheap shot on fetisov,all canadians like is fighters, finesse wins the games

[BigSilky85]

We like honest, classy, tough hockey players — not guys who high-stick, knee and try to hurt people. Fetisov had it coming, Clark rang his bell and that's that.

And besides, the new generation of Canadian hockey player has finesse and toughness. Tavares, Crosby, Nash, Getzlaf...

[jkrx]

Did you just call Getzlaf a classy player? Why not say Perry and Downey too while you're at it. :)

[neeson16]

Clark's cheapshot on Fetisov? You mean the punch he landed on Fetisov after Fetisov dove at his knee and then came back at him with his hands up? I feel bad for a stand-up guy like that. Typical coward. Willing to go after knees, not willing to stand up for himself.

[jkrx]

Fetsiov wasnt a cheapshot artist like you canadiens like to show it. He did some bad stuff, so did clark and Mario and most guys playing hockey. WE all done some stuff we are not proud of. But compared to MArio and Fetisov, clark was a sore loser who never won shit.

[thomasmoonman]

@jkrx You are sad. Clark was a warrior. A class in his own on a shitty T.O team. Or any team almost. One of the best. Best wooden stick wrist shot in the NHL

[007ConnS]

@thomasmoonman

Arn't all sticks wooden?

[thomasmoonman]

@007ConnS Hardly. Most are composite material today. Hard to find a pro who uses a wood stick anymore...

[Kipperluongo]

@jkrx Fuck yourself, Clark had his knee torn apart by this idiot

[jkrx]

@Kipperluongo I'm not going to what one of your favorite goalies like to do in a desicive game. ;)

[Kipperluongo]

@jkrx yeah he cracks under pressure a lot, but his style of play and the way he plays during the reg season makes him good, my fav goalie is kipper though, luongo is a guy i sort of base my game off of

[thomasmoonman]

@neeson16 Clark Fxxked him up good :)

[andyb666rash]

are you kidding me the guys a racist/ sexist fuck.... his own co worker couldnt take him anymore which... in turn caused him to hold maybe 10 minutes of airtime on saturday ngiht rather than all intermissions, you gotta think buddy because you got no idea, and avery is right he doesnt know shit he just babbles on and bitchs, and if hes wrong he raises his voice and yells so noone can prove him wrong!

[SuperHaha1994]

i love people who bash don cherry, he is smarter and has done more for hockey then any of you dumbasses. so what if he doesnt like earopeons? just stfu and leave him alone cocksuckers

[GueorguiJoukov]

Hatred is always useless and this is no valuable justification you can possibly hold to support it as being any near to a logical thought.

Cherry has done nothing to hockey but mocking of one of the greatest hockey nation, Russia, for the only and only reason they were Canada's arch enemy.

What a great hockey man he was to lead a great team to failure!

This same guy who said Russian couldn't play and was upset about Bure's success. What a man!!!

[GueorguiJoukov]

You can prefer one to the other, but not claim A is greater than B because you prefer A.

Where is brilliance in racist thoughts?

Where is the logic behind blind-sided answers?

Where is the reasonning behind all this non-sense?

We can't blame him for being ignorant.

We can't blame him for being foolhardy.

But, it's hard to forgive when you think he is too stubborn and proud to recognize it.

I guess he is the reflection of the headless croud and this is why he is so loved at west.

[Skrangelben]

LoL

Did the racist loudmouth Cherry go after fetisov this time!

LoL

[geoms13]

iam with u don

[azbaldy5]

Cherry is an ASSHOLE, he could not play hockey worth a SHIT ! he has NO BUSINESS CRITIZING ONE OF THE GREATEST PLAYERS EVER, That schmuck cherry could not carry FETISOV'S JOCK !

[Sharksfan27]

He made a living off playing hockey, went professional and achieved quite a bit of success, albeit at the minor league level. Could you do that? No. So shut the fuck up. Im sure Don Cherry could out play you for years after he hung the skates up.

[azbaldy5]

don cherry spent little time in the NHl he was up for a cup of coffee ACTUALLY IT WAS MORE LIKE A SHOT GLASS. I'M glad you like him because he is A PIECE OF SHIT !

[neeson16]

Great players can be dirty, (see bryant, kobe; clarke, bobby; pronger, chris; etc). Fetisov was a dirty player, just accept that. I've seen clips of what he's done, he's dirty. Not that I'm taking away from anything he did to help improve the game of hockey and promote it worldwide, but he's a dirty player. Prove me wrong.

Also, I'd be willing to bet my life savings that Cherry (back in his 20's) could whoop anybody who is commenting on this video (including myself).

[azbaldy5]

the fact is MR MOUTH STILL CAN'T CARRY FETISOV'S JOCK STRAP !

[neeson16]

Don Cherry being an average AHLer has nothing to do with his comments. Would you feel better about those comments if Wayne Gretzky, Gordie Howe or Mark Messier made them? Probably not. You're missing the point and trying to argue something that has no relevance to the discussion, nor is it anything that anybody else cares about but yourself. Me calling him a dirty player would be no different than Don Cherry. Again, as I said before, prove me & Cherry wrong. Otherwise shut it

[azbaldy5]

Cherry has a history of SHITTING ALL OVER EUROPEAN PLAYERS. If the asshole HAD A GAME THEN I WOULD RESPECT HIM MORE. and he can't count to SIX !

[neeson16]

Again, I'm not arguing the prejudice that Cherry has towards Euros. I'm arguing the fact that Fetisov is a dirty player. And stop with the all caps, it makes you seem like a 5 year old mashing away at the keyboard.

Do you have anything at all to contribute to the Fetisov is a dirty player debate? Although it's not really a debate, it's like asking if Gretzky was a great player. It's just common knowledge, like Avery being a dirty player.

So, one last time, what is your argument for Fetisov?

[azbaldy5]

argument ? Fetisov is one of the GREATEST DEFENSEMAN WHO HAS EVER PLAYED HOCKEY ! all players will play on the edge or close to it. if you thought Fetisov was dirty TRY CHRIS CHELIOS ! Don Cherry as they would say in Texas is a BLOWHARD !

[neeson16]

I'll you my examples above. Kobe - don't get within armreach of him or you'll catch an elbow to the face off of a shot. Pronger - his elbows are renowned as much as his clapper. Clarke - wouldn't go into the corner with this guy without some sort of life insurance policy. All great players, all dirty players. Just like Fetisov. Again, I'm not disputing whether or not he was one of the greatest contributors to the promotion of hockey, but on the ice he was dirty.

[neeson16]

Also, you're edge argument holds no water. Example, Scott Stevens played with an edge, but he didn't do it by using his stick or going after the knees of other players. You know who did do that? Besides Fesitov, Bryan Marchment. Let that sink in, Fetisov played like Bryan Marchment. Specializing in high sticking means 1 of 2 things, either you play for Ottawa (a la hossa on berard), or you're a dirty player. Stick to the face has nothing to do with getting the puck, but it is attempt to injure.

[jkrx]

Scott Stevens? Really? That guy didnt go for career ending knee hits, no. He went for life ending head shots instead.

[wardnikoff]

"Fetisov is one of the GREATEST DEFENSEMAN WHO HAS EVER PLAYED HOCKEY"

uhh..no, no he wasnt. He was good, mebe even great..but he isnt in many people's top twenty. He wasnt even that dirty...

[Kipperluongo]

Chris chelios isn't dirty wtf are you talking about you european cocksucker

[azbaldy5]

what about the brian propp hit in the '89 playoffs that wasn't dirty/ i'm north american you stupid shit !

[Kipperluongo]

oh one hit oh does that mean hes fuckin dirty? no ulf Samuelsson was dirty

[konank666]

CAPS LOCK MOTHA FUCKA!

With that out of the way, I am quite curious as to what level of hockey you made it to that qualifies your opinion over anyone else's? See, if you can make moronic ad hominems about how people can't make a certain argument b/c of what they have or haven't done, the same thing can be said for you.

So what is it dipshit, enlighten us all about your hockey Hall of Fame career that makes your opinion any "better" than anyone else's.

[jmiller006]

i do like cherry...but i can fully admit that he hates russians and will never be able to admit ANY RUSSIAN is better than ANY CANADIAN...

that being said, this is just a bitch move by fetisov...but, i doubt he would have called out an american or canadian player for doing the same thing.

[phoenixtilidie]

Don Cherry is nothing but a rascist arsehole who would rather see a north american player throw an elbow to the face, than see a European score a goal. I watch only to see what hilariously dumb shit he come's out with next.

[whitecloud1980]

not true. he is pretty much strictly pro Canadian and aboslutely discourages cheap shots of any kind, NO MATTER WHERE the player comes from. if you watch so much Coaches corner you would know that. racist is not the right word either. biased defines cherry. not racist.

[phoenixtilidie]

Fair dues.

[gkhadz]

And I add...

this baldie is screaming "watch this and that"

funny thing

NO RECOLLECTION OF THIS BALDIE

FETISOV IS ONE OF THE GREATEST

[AlexOvechkinMVP]

i noe rite, just sum bias bitch tryin to act tough n smart

[gkhadz]

In Russia there's a proverb "A coward doesn't play hockey!".

So "boo-hoo" is over. Be a man!

[BookemDeno]

Canada has the greatest hockey players in the world and your comment states exactly how Russian hockey is run. The art of the dive was perfected by russians. I do recall kozlov in detroit diving around like he was crucified

[Sharksfan27]

Well said. Canada IS hockey.

[AlexOvechkinMVP]

shut da fuck up don cherry, bet if u if fetisov was canadian, don wud be suckin fetisovs dick!!!

[TheRealDerfMan]

....idiot....

[AlexOvechkinMVP]

okay there, i jus really hate don, aight!

hes one of those guys that cant admit malkin n ovechkin r bettr than crosby

[TheRealDerfMan]

Yeah, so? I'm also one of those guys that KNOWS that Malkin and Ovechkin ARE NOT better than Crosby. WTF kind of argument do you have over which one of those guys is better than the other two? Here's the reality: all 3 of them are GREAT, and there is not one that is better than the other.

This is the same stupid argument as "who's better between Gretzky, Lemieux, and Orr"... again, the answer is NO ONE. For god's sake, all 6 players mentioned play a different style!

Don knows hockey... period.

[JODALYNN1]

oohhh really? give me three GOOD reasons how they're arent...........GOOD reasons...not oh he's the youngest captain to win the cup.. thats not a reason. a GOOD one...please im so curious.! lol lets see if you can think of a good one that just stuns me and the rest of the world.

[TheRealDerfMan]

It's clear you didn't understand my point, so how about you give me 3 good reasons why I should waste my time with you anymore than what I already have?

Like I said, "I don't have a problem with you defending your FAVORITE player. But to say he's the best or better than other guys just because he's your favorite is just plain moronic." I also find it stupid to compare players who have different styles. You might not understand that yet, YodaLynnie, but hopefully in a few years, you will....

=P

[TheRealDerfMan]

...and let me add a few things...

I don't have a problem with you defending your FAVORITE player. But to say he's the best or better than other guys just because he's your favorite is just plain moronic. I was a fan of Stevie Y growing up, but I still knew that Mario Lemieux was a more skilled player... does that make sense to you?

And I don't wanna hear nothing about Cherry going soft on Crosby 'cause he's Canadian: Before the kid even MADE the NHL, Cherry was on his ass, so.... whatever...

[Poleno2007]

да прально он молодому переебал))))))))))))

[MarioLemieux66Zepper]

Oh ye, Fetisov one of the best defenceman ever, well balanced and with great skills.

Don Cherry often uses a role of a "Real Canadian Patriot", its not bad but sometimes strange...

He's very temperamental guy and sometimes says very good things (as exapmple about Steve Downie).

Sometimes strange thing - (Mats Naslund, Slava Fetisov)

Mario Lemieux is the best! :)

[xVincex8]

fetisov one of the best defenceman ever? lol make me laugh

[maimus8]

why the f**k is he talking trash about Fetisov.

Fetisov is the greatest defencemen of all time in my opinion. I say that because Fetisov won 3 times more awards than Bobby Orr so Cherry should shut the f**k up.

[gracom1977]

because fetisov was a cheap shot pussy! talented yes but a fucking disgrace when it comes to playing with honour.

[Russ1aRoCks]

dont be jealous Canadian cunt russia always owned canada in hockey

[goleafbudsgo]

russian pussy

[Russ1aRoCks]

how? russia beat canda again and has more gold medals now thats right you better reply

[Babystrompe]

don't even try to compare bobby with fetisov. Bobby was at a different level.

[dennisnemerov]

Don Cherry is gay right? Well he looks like one a lot, I'd be really surprised if he isn't.

[ovechkono]

Don cherry should mention canadian players cheep hit and hits from behind and big elbows if he only thinks that russians do it.

[mattymraz]

He didn't say that Canadians dont' do that. He's responding to press in Canada and the US basically saying Russian players can't do any wrong, and that none of them are cheap shots.

Slava Fetisov was a cheap shot. Federov was a diver, and Kasparitus wasn't all that innocent either.

We got our fair share of cheap shots too though I'm not disputing that.

[dustyb58]

Fedorov. Kasparaitis.

[krazy16dude]

I love Don Cherry. He has a nice style.

[nuklz]

i really hope you don't mean his jackets.....the cons of watching HNIC in HD

[krazy16dude]

His jackets are a big plus. You never know what he's going to wear. And he's not a douche trying to fit in like all the other hockey experts who all look alike.

[dustyb58]

no, just a douche with extreme bias.

[billmaxxx]

How many games did Fetisov get?

[chapaev36]

Oh, those evil Russians. Run for cover!

[Hampstead343]

"The same as Hatcher did". Is he talking about Kevin or Derian?

[Shumeshi]

Don Cherry seems to forget Bobby Clarke and what he did, eh?

[ArcherofStars73]

Fetisov is the MAN! Please, I like Don but his biy Wendell was a criminal on the ice and look who posted this: BroadStreetBUlly...tough days since 75 huh kid?

[pimpdaddyhoenuts]

slava is a boy for life

[SSBD]

It's a shame Slava didn't end up paralyzed from a limo crash

[ArcherofStars73]

Nah...Slava is too good of person, but thankfully Pelle Lindbergh DIED when he could've killed somebody..OPPS..he did.

FETISOV HERO, LINDBERGH COWARD IN HIS DEATH!

By the way "Suoer Mario" was one of the worst hacks to ever skate..please the man got a way with murder with his high sticks and slases.

[chapaev36]

get fucked.

[SSBD]

Go take a ride in Dany Heatley's Ferrari.

[chapaev36]

No, no.  You misunderstood. What I was doing is wishing you poontang for the holidays. Geez - glad it's all cleared up. P.S. Go fuck yourself.

[SSBD]

Lighten up man, relax on a Turkish vacation with Roman Lyashenko

[chapaev36]

Ok, you misunderstood again. All I was doing was wishing you a nice Christmas wank. P.S. Please die.

[SSBD]

If you were Slava's little brother you could ask him for a ride to the rink.

[chapaev36]

Well, thank goodness. Mnatsakanov's little brother I wouldn't want to be.

[nuklz]

if Heatley's windshield was made of the material as his visor, both would have survived.......are the sens sponsored by Apple Auto glass?

[evh5150316]

Fuckin A. Cherry doesn't mention that much does he?

[mattcat9]

Don is a great guy

[vicamera44]

Haha Slava was great! Don you are a crusty old fart!

[gabaman]

Yeah, Slava Fetisov invented the high sticking penalty. They need to just call it 5 Minutes for High Slavaving.

[mleib17]

Cherry is the best.

[DeanWheldie]

how many games did fetisov get for that anyone know??

[knicksfan89]

1 week I don't know how many games though

[stanislavprecenieks]

Fetisov is the best defensman of all time

[iHawter]

looooool

Bobby Orr is the best defensman of all time idiot.

[kubko87]

What a prick Don chery is. Whats the the fact that hes russian got to do with anything? Two best players in the leauge right now are russian btw...

[knicksfan89]

from january 92 and don cherry is put simply contraversial but a canadian legend

[Vladdistar]

Don Cherry is a central part of Canada ice hockey lore... to the rest of the world he is just an useless clown.

[catella10]

well, the rest of the world cant play hockey like we can

[prastakvascha]

Don Cherry is a sucker

[NJDevilsRule]

Don Cherry is the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maksim82tallin]

he is more like a wrestling fed. announcer - not a hockey expert definetily

[Rvd420WHAT]

ImmortalLayneStaley u dummy.....check the footage clown...It was Dano straight up defending Matteau in front of Broduer. check your facts before you sound like a moron like you do now

[Rvd420WHAT]

Fetisov was the best defensemen in the world for like a decade. He's one of the 5 best defenseman of all time. His nhl career was just icing on the cake. THis guy was captain of the USSR Red Army team..he knows every trick in the book. Props to the first Red to come over and Props as always to Lou for drafting him

[brooklyn450]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAH WTF Ray Bourque was the best def of the decade

[deadwolf6999]

No matter how good he was he was still a dirty player that had no morals or ethics for the game.

Besides Bourque far outclassed him in every aspect.

[Vladdistar]

"Besides Bourque far outclassed him in every aspect."

Go watch Canada Cup 81, my friend. Bourque and his friends were out of position on all of CCCP goals. So much for the HHOF "quality".

BTW, Slava Fetisov beat Ray Bourque to his first Stanley Cup by 4 years, despite coming to NHL some 10 years later. And he has one MORE Stanley Cup ring than Bourque.

[deadwolf6999]

One game doesn't win the war (which Canada Won and still winning).

Bourque wasn't a general manager, he was a guy who constantly signed under his value and the team never put together a good team for him.

Besides Orr is the best D-man to ever put a pair of skates.

That and these guys weren't under handed scum bags like Fetisov

[Vladdistar]

Still winning what?

Canada lost to Switzerland in the last tournament where they iced an all-star team (2006 Olympics), not to mention the quarterfinal loss to Russia.

And it has been proven on a million occasions that the only way Canada could win vs. USSR was through biased officiating.

Agree on Orr though. Too bad his knees gave up so early in his career. IMO, he was a better player than #99.

[clark85]

biased officiating?? is that the excuse for every russian loss? lol

[Vladdistar]

Not any longer buddy - we just proved that we can win even badly officiated games vs Canada ::))

[jkrx]

No cause Oates, Neely, Juneau, Wesley, Heinze, Glen Murray and Andy Moog were really just a bunch of AHL talent werent they..?

[josatinho]

i like fetisov

[JeffGrim]

There is no doubt that there are distinct differences between North American hockey and European hockey. North American hockey rewards toughness and discipline, while European hockey regards grace and finesse. This is what Don Cherry is saying when he rails against European players; and he's right to do so.

[HK83IE]

I can't say which is the better method to play , but that is why I have always enjoyed watching European hockey of grace and finesse over the NHL's bruising charge.

[JeffGrim]

I must admit that I do enjoy some European play; there is something to be said about finesse. But I have found over the years that European hockey has an aversion toward toughness. Hopefully that will end the more the two styles blend.

[Vladdistar]

Ovechkin vs. the Habs in 2007-08 NHL season signalled the dawn of the "New European" era.

[davevibc]

Finally - a fellow Canadian with some brains on this issue. Clark took numerous cheapshots at Fetisov (and even threatened him in the press prior to their first game against eachother). Fetisov was more in the mold of a Ray Bourque - would Clark be considered tough if he took cheap shots at Bourque (a non-fighter)? I don't think so. Clark basically had it in his (or Harold Ballard's) mind that he could rund Fetisov out of the league because he was Russian.

[17WendelClark]

So your saying Clark's a racist? Ya SURE. The fact is that even though Clark threatened him, Fetisov shouldn't go around high-sticking great players like Clark or Lemieux and just focus on his damn game.

[Russianhockey94]

don cherry is an old crook

[ThunderMage]

It bugs me how he says it like Russians are the dirtiest players ever. Y'know, almost as if a Canadian players' never done something like this before. Don Cherry is the man, no questions, but sometimes he needs to cool his pacemaker a little bit.

[gabaman]

Yeah, like Fetisov invented the high sticking penalty.

[GrantFuhr]

devil fans should hate on fetisov, he's the one who really scored that goal in the 94 conf. finals and not stephan metteau

[ImmortalLayneStaley]

actually it was a young scott niedermayer who decided not to play defense on matteau

[Listman11]

Hey Clark is well known as a cheap shop artist. I remember in Minni he beat up Bob Brooke and would not stop punching even when he was down. I have never seen Clark stop punching even when the other was down. A real classless guy. But then what do you expect from an uneducated hick from SASK.

[Suprarush]

If you're going to get into it with Wendel you better be prepared. Brooke was pushing and shoving with Wendel and then Wendel got the advantage quick. if memory serves me correct Maruk cross-checked Wendel in the face and you didn't see Clark rolling around on the ice. Wendel pound for pound the toughest ever!

[Listman11]

Suprarush, why don't you address the issue of Clark continuing to punch a non fighter even when he is down. You and I both know that is a classless thing to do. If you remember Maruk did cross check him in the face and Clark just went off the ice. He did not beat up Maruk because he knew he deserved it for what he did to Brooke.

[Flamesfan7]

I'm pretty sure Clark's was in retaliation to what Fetisov had done to him earlier in the season.

As for Dale, no one liked him anyways. He was a hack.

Don't be bashing Wendel though...toughest player to ever play the game.

[Yellow586]

Hey, Huntsie still has a place in the hearts of the Washington faithful...though the Turgeon hit was a real low moment for the Caps and hockey...still hurts. For his faults though, Hunter was heart and soul for the Caps. We miss that now.

[Kalgarysuck]

Don Cherry is a mad dog.
