Naturally, Cherry didn't stop there. He then went after Chara, who fought Lecavalier in the final minutes after being challenged.

Can I just say, I love Don Cherry. I don't always agree with him and he's not always right, but when it comes to the intricacies of the game, he is the high priest of hockey.
