Froggy!! You Gots Some 'Splanin to do!

WINNIPEG (CBC) [2/11/04] - Don Cherry was right when he claimed mostly French-Canadian and European NHL players wear hockey visors, says a Winnipeg lawyer who crunched the numbers.

Curtis Unfried told CBC Newsworld on Wednesday that his investigation of data showed 59% of European players wear visors, followed by 55% of French-Canadian players. Among North American players born outside of Quebec, only 20 per cent wear face shields to guard against injury.
Well! It looks like some Gov't officials and fans owe Coach Cherry an appology!
