...After watching the Pittsburgh Penguins defeat the Philadelphia Flyers in the first game of the Stanley Cup Eastern Conference Finals, I saw Hockey Night in Canada's legendary announcer Don Cherry wearing one of the most eye-burning suits that I've ever seen.
YIPES! This suit could melt Buffalo snow! Cherry has a long history of wearing the most colorful attire ever seen by man.
