Former NHL coach and legendary analyst Don Cherry recalled one of the only times he has been starstruck in his career. At 90 years old, Cherry has encountered countless celebrities and NHL greats. However, when asked if he'd ever been starstruck, his response came quickly.
On Sunday's episode of "The Don Cherry's Grapevine Podcast," he said:
"I already had a beer with Bobby Orr, so that doesn't count. That didn't count. Jack Dempsey. We were at this function in the American Hockey League. We were with Joe Crozier, the general manager and coach. He saw all the speech engagements. It was a celebrity of the year award, and he said, 'You're going to speak tonight.’ I didn't even know the guy's name.
