RON MACLEAN RUMORS & GOSSIP
Cuba Gooding Jr. stole the show at the NHL Awards, and not in a good way
The NHL's Awards Show has always been a fine mix of awkward, cheesy, forced and occasionally funny, especially under Ron MacLean's tenure.

Kid attends game dressed as Don Cherry
Spotted in the stands during Friday night’s Jets-Penguins tilt was this mini Don Cherry, ably played by Kelly Thornhill of Winnipeg.
