Don Cherry: The high-profile hockey commentator's employment status is in doubt after Rogers took control of "Hockey Night in Canada" on Tuesday in a new 12-year, $5.2-billion agreement between the telecommunications giant and the NHL, according to CTV. "I have no idea what's going on. I haven't talked to CBC, I didn't see the press conference, I was en route somewhere," Cherry said to reporters on Tuesday night. "So I'm asking you guys -- do I have a job?" TORONTO -- Don Cherry knows as much about his future on "Hockey Night in Canada," as his fans -- nothing. CBC's iconic hockey broadcast will remain on TV for at least the next four years, but the public broadcaster will not have editorial control of the show. That raises questions about the future of on-air personalities like Cherry and his Coach's Corner sidekick Ron MacLean.
