Don Cherry weighs in on recent high hit and it's exactly what you'd expect
Despite the fact that Don Cherry was fired from Hockey Night in Canada, he's still finding a way to get into the conversation.
Just like on the famous ''Coaches Corner'' segment, Cherry is well known for his brutal honesty and wild takes. Most recently, the former Bruins bench boss weighed in on the situation between Rangers captain Jacob Trouba and Blackhawks forward Andreas Athanasiou.
Athanasiou called out Trouba for continuing to throw high hits intentionally:
''That guy is known for hitting high, not really worrying about the puck out there and almost trying to hurt people. That's his game; that's what he does. He's an $8 million man with zero goals, so he has to figure out how to do something when making that much. If you can't help the team, I guess you try to hurt guys on the other team.''
''It was a weird play. The puck was there. He could've made a play on the puck. Instead, it's like [he had] an intent to try to hurt somebody. He's been known to do that. You have to know when he's on the ice, and he got me there. ''

Anyone who grew up watching the ''Rock Em, Sock Em'' show with Don Cherry, knows exactly what he had to say about the hit and the situation.
''Keep your head up.''
