“Cherry: You know, I’ve been home now for 24 hours. I must’ve been asked 9,000 times about that incident, we don’t have it , but I want to talk about it. Figure it out: Here’s a guy who gets eight stitches, eight stitches in his chin. What happened? Who did it? Nobody knows, ok? Nobody knows, ok, so here’s what happens. The referee calls the guy over and he says ‘Did you see what happened?’, ‘Whoaa, not my side’ ‘Did you see what happened?’ ‘Well wait a minute if I tell you, that means five-minute major.’ If the linesman says five-minute major...”

“Captain Crunch nails Chelios, and the Hawks are gone in six! Are they gonna miss Wendel or what? What a hit.”

“You can call it a cheap shot, blind shot, a late hit; you can call it what you want and it should’ve been a suspension as far as I’m concerned! It’s unbelievable that it’s not a suspension! What it did, it gave meat to everybody that’s against the National Hockey League—this’ll be the poster boy…!! You think he’d do this stuff against Gretzky, if Semenko was there?! Do you think he’d do this against Yzerman if Probert was there?! NO! That’s what I’m trying to tell you, he wouldn’t do that stuff!”

“Cherry: …Yeah he’s gone anyhow, going into overtime. Gretzky, verge of elimination. So, what do we do? They say ‘What do we do? How about he gets hit with the puck? He gets hit with the puck, he’s laying on the '. The only way he’d get hit with the puck is if his chin was on the ice. Anyway, that’s all I’ve got to say about that. gets the overtime winner and that’s wrong as far as I’m concerned. Andreychuk got a five-minute major, he should’ve got something! At least a slap on the wrist or a dirty look!”

“Cam Neely! Is he a beauty? Fifty goals in 49 games.”

“Still overtime folks. Watch this beauty pass by Brown: right on the money to Bure and he slides it home by Vernon! Can you believe it? Down three to one and come back to win? Pat never gave up on them I'll tell ya. What a win.”
