DON CHERRY WILL RETURN TO CBC’s HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA

We can’t wait either Don! Brace yourselves hockey fans-Grapes is back and better than ever! We’re pleased to let you know the incomparable Don Cherry will return to CBC’s Hockey Night in Canada, once the agreement between the NHL and NHLPA has been ratified, with plenty of insightful, thought-provoking and witty opinions - not to mention his high-collars and dazzling suits.

Following a year’s respite, Cherry will return to his usual spot on Coach’s Corner alongside Ron MacLean in the first intermission of Game One.

Please join us in welcoming Don back-it’s great to have him, providing his legendary commentaries and insights about the game Canadians embrace with such passion.

Looking forward to watching some Hockey again. Only had the pleasure of watching my DD this year. I think a trip to Montreal might be in order.
