First HNIC without Don Cherry in my lifetime. I am so excited for what promises to be a rushed and horrendous apology followed by a hasty switch to a brand new format during the first intermission tonight.

Tonight’s a section on HHOF inductees and they’ll be trialing new ideas each week for a bit.

I hope it's just Ron doing what he usually does in saying the topic followed by silence "Austin Matthews" silence "Colorado Avalanche" silence

Hoping for Brad Park so he can talk about Don Cherry every week instead of vice versa.

Started off good and seemingly honest, but finished with we honour you tonight? What. Also wasn't specific enough on the fact what Don said was wrong and hateful. Period.

Well that didn't go in the direction I assumed it would at all. MacLean painted Cherry as the victim in this whole debacle. I think you just made it worse, Ron...

Clearly the rich white men are the victims here. Eat poo poo, Ron.

MacLean was apologizing to Cherry more than anything else. Sounds like CC is dead for good.

I was once in a bar in Montreal at about 1230 on a -30 snowy night, like 20+ years ago. Ron MacLean showed up wasted drunk, and promptly lost his shirt (and coat iirc) somehow. Like he just came out of the men's room shirtless. 30 mins after he got there and everyone in the place was looking for this drunk fool's shirt because it wasn't a big place and he was noisily stomping all over the chill vibe. We never found it. I think someone finally gave him a tshirt they had in their bag or off their back or something and sent him off in a cab. That's my Ron MacLean story.

I thought for sure I was being whooshed with some 4chan copy story, but nope, this is an original. Goddamn.

a false posted:holy poo poo. were you present for this legendary and as yet, to my knowledge, unexplained picture? No, that photo is from a bar in Victoria called The Local. Very infamous night around these parts. I used to work for a brewery in Victoria around that time and we were all disappointed we couldn't see the label on the bottle.

IIRC some goon toxx'd getting that tattoo.

So is Ron like Randy from trailer park boys where he takes the shirt off when drinking or is some kind of Bert Kreisher disciple?

I finally touched the poop on Facebook after some clown on my friends list shared a post that was all about how Cherry said the same poo poo 21 years ago without consequence and blamed immigrants for his firing.The fact that people are outraged about a garbage piece of poo poo being fired for saying some truly stupid poo poo is really loving embarrassing

I tried to watch this and had to stop less than a minute in. What a terrible way to apologize.

So now that Don Cherry and Greg Zaunn have been shot into the sun, who is the next Canadian mega-chud sports commentator the shoe is going to drop on?

Can someone cook up something about Jim hughson? Be great if I never had to hear him again, let alone calling a cup win and saying x has won the cup with the same tone and excitement you might exclaim the utility bill was 10 bucks less this month

CBC just aired some classic footage of Grapes saying the n-word, so that should be the end of that.

Gotta love how Ron MacLean bared his heart and soul live on national television and said almost nothing of any substance whatsoever, revealing himself as a hollow shell.

Much as I dislike Cherry, he says "Good. I knew you were Scandinavian", not the other thing. Assuming you're talking about the part at 9:10ish.
