“People ask me if I'm gay because I work at Vogue” LMAO!!

I give him credit for being different.... and he's also right on about Cherry.

Avery is a waste of news print, hockey equipment, and oxygen. Cherry is right,he will be straightened out and I can't wait to see it. No one in the league likes the guy, even if you see people on his team saying "he's a guy you want on your team" they definitely don't respect his game at all and nor should anyone.

Mr_Canada Mr_Canada:

"“I didn't go to school,” he said."

Explains everything.

Funny thing is, he seems vastly brighter than the average NHLer, and expresses regret that he didn't receive more of an education.

He didn't go to school?

I thought one of the requirments of playing major jr. hockey was, going to school.

Wait till Don gets his 6 new suits, then we'll see who the fashion dork is.

$1:

Don Cherry says he's going to dazzle Hockey Night in Canada audiences with his wardrobe this year, that is if he doesn't get fired first.

The veteran Coach's Corner antagonist also doubts if Washington's Alex Ovechkin can match his MVP season of last year, doesn't see why the Detroit Red Wings can't repeat as Stanley Cup champions and thinks it was silly for the Vancouver Canucks to name goaltender Roberto Luongo as team captain.

Cherry said he has some new suits being tailored in anticipation of the opening of the NHL season.

"I have three in the making," he told a telephone conference call yesterday. "I have so many now I leave them for the finals. Last year I absolutely bedazzled everybody with six new ones. If I don't get fired, I'm going to have six brand new ones for the finals."

Nope not at all although some OHL teams like the Plymouth Whalers insist their players attend high school till completed. Some get a school package that pays up to $8,000 of school per year for every year played. This has a time limit that it can be used for and is null and void if the player signs any kind of pro contract.

This interview was incredible, the audacity of this idiot actually made me change the channel. Avery is simply trying to turn the NHL into his own playground with shameless self-promotion for more and more money. The NHL's Terrell Owens minus the talent. Lets get back to pure hockey and world class players not world class ego's.
