The Odd Couple

I just can't wrap my brain around it.

Don Cherry and Brett Hull, partnered up for the playoffs on NBC? Considering I'll still be in CBC-less West Michigan for most of the playoffs (except for a glorious weekend in Toronto!), my immediate reaction was yay Cherry! But the happy is quickly eclipsed by this most important question: Who in their right mind thought it was a good idea to let Brett Hull talk more? And on CBC even, too? I hope the Canadian fans crucify him the first time he says something idiotic. It should take about five to ten minutes.

I do love the bit where Cherry says Hull's going to have to get himself some plaids - but really, it's been a while since we've seen Cherry in something so simple, hasn't it? Everyone remembers the pictured black and white eyesore from last years Cup Finals, right? And who could forget the greenishblueishpurply debacle that happened a couple games later?

The question arises, how long will they last before one of them tries to kill the other? More importantly will there be fistfights? One can hope.
