I think he ment he laughed hard

[@titusmccarthy]

Of course it is. The man is a fucking moron.

[@Im__Your__Huckleberry]

I clicked on the video then immediately thought wait how long is this then lol'd at 26 minutes

[@fakeaccount8678]

Gerbudskin is an all timer, but Oliver Lawsom-Tossum and Dress Skull were utter brilliance...

It's the double-whammy of Gerbudskin followed by Gufferson that really got me.

Having your name mispronounced by Grapes is a rite of passage for any NHL player.

[@bxcharisma-7441]

He did nothing wrong

[@Army2309.]

Doesnt Sleep I know that

[@bigdaddyd6592]

I'm from the U.S. and never watched Coach's Corner and figured I'd watch some of the stuff to see why everyone is going so crazy about keeping him around. What he said was interpreted poorly and they didn't even give him a chance to fight his case. And he worked there for 30-40 years right? Brutal.

[@JeffersonLaTrump]

I’m really excited to hear him pronounce jersperi kotkaniemi

[@gorgon7823]

He can’t even pronounce the last names of “good Canadian boys” correctly.

[@jasondashney]

He literally does on purpose. Jeff Marek said Don actually writes them down the "wrong" way before going on the air and pronouncing them that way, haha. Genius.

Ryan Ellis lol

[@gorgon7823]

Jason Dashney I don’t believe that, if he did any prepping at all before going on air, he wouldn’t be known for all the stupid shit he spouts out. It’s not an act

[@ericbrewerguitar1499]

This video could be 10 hours long and I’d enjoy every minute of it lmao

[@ryanbranigan231]

There should be a game where someone is given the Don Cherry pronunciation and have to guess the actual player.

[@ethanbiafore2435]

15:13 cmonnn don! there’s no excuse on that one lmaoo

[@tylershep4220]

From now on, I will always call OEL "Oliver Lawsum-Tossum"

SemiSolid Snake as a Swede this hurt more than the way you guys usually pronounce it... and thats bad lol

[@35jigganator]

I can't believe there were 26 minutes of this... and Lalongo wasn't even a part of this? It's one of his signature ones.

“Kyle..Apaso- how do you say that?” “Okposo” “Good ‘nuff”

[@RVN1016]

12:42 I was surprised that he was able to pronounce Lamborghini

[@SBbbb-q8g]

The best part is we know who Don's talking about. No correction required.

[@gregholman2431]

Lol, I was totally thinking of adding something like "Don't forget about Kevin Bieksa", but of course there is a bonus segment totally focused on Kevin Bieksa here. One thing, though, is don't forget about Roberto Luongo here. Don Cherry always tended to call him (something like) "Lalongo", basically.

[@bearded_one_6665]

God this video is just the most amazing thing to ever exist on this earth. Thank you for this gem of a video lol

Huge props for the super fun editing throughout this

Don actually pronounces Enroth more accurately than the Americanization of his name

[@rebeccatrishel]

This is an unbelievable video. I know how much work this takes - to find the footage, to assemble it? I love the creativity of using different sources to demonstrate the correct pronunciation of the name. This must have taken like 100 hours of work .... I'm super subscribed to you
