Avery sour on Grapes
NHL tough guy Sean Avery reopened his feud with Don Cherry this week by stating the CBC commentator knows next to nothing about hockey.
“He's a staple as far as Canadian hockey goes,” Avery said during interview on the CBC's The Hour. “And I grew up watching Coach's Corner, and he serves a purpose.
“But he really does not know shit about hockey."
“He knows, like, unnecessary facts about putting Sears catalogues on your shin pads.”
Host George Stroumboulopoulos interjected with, “No, no, no.”
“He says a lot of things,” continued Avery. “He calls people by their wrong names. And it's just, like, enough of this guy.”
Last spring, Cherry called Avery a jerk on Hockey Night In Canada after a trash-talking episode at the Air Canada Centre involving the Toronto Maple Leafs' Darcy Tucker and Jason Blake.
Cherry said Avery needed to be “straightened out”.
