Don Cherry, vindicated Canadian

Then in 2004, during a discussion about whether visors should be
mandatory for N.H.L. players — Don Cherry believes they lead to
more reckless stickwork — he said disparagingly,

“Most of the guys that wear them are Europeans and French guys.”

Cherry came under criticism for that remark but was vindicated
somewhat by the fact that most visors in the N.H.L. were
indeed worn by European and French Canadian players.
