Hockey Night in Canada

Hockey Night in Canada: The high-profile hockey commentators 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 The Chronicle Herald. I have no idea whats going on. I havent talked to CBC, I didnt 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 and TORONTO Don Cherry knows as much about his future on Hockey Night in Canada, as his fans nothing. CBCs 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 Coachs Corner sidekick Ron MacLean. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
