Cherry once again facing off against Burke

As the blue and white try to turn over a new leaf with a new coach, Coach’s Corner commentator Don Cherry is once again going head-to-head with his nemesis, Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brian Burke.

There a lot of buzz about the ongoing feud that’s heating up again between the two,with Cherry calling Burke out on Hockey Night in Canada.

Cherry said Burke tried to get him fired for so-called “vicious” comments made about Ron Wilson.

“You want to get me off, you want to take me on. Two years ago you said you were going to do something to me in the playoffs. Remember that? And I said, ‘Oh Brian Burke I’m shaking in my boots, I’m shaking right now, do your best’,’ Cherry said.

Cherry, also slapping his desk, claims the Leafs have no Ontario players, and that’s a crime.

Burke talked to Hockey Night in Canada about the issue.

“I think fans in Toronto are a lot more interested in seeing a winning team than they are at looking at the passports and seeing where guys were born,” Burke said.
