Don Cherry probably is in no mood to smile after Canada flamed out in the quarterfinals of the world junior championship last week, but maybe he'd still get a kick out of this.

The longtime "Hockey Night in Canada" analyst on CBC is being honored this month by the Toledo Walleye of the ECHL, a Detroit Red Wings affiliate. The Walleye, who have worn wacky jerseys before, will don sweaters in the style of Cherry's eye-burning suits for a home game Jan. 23.

The jerseys will be auctioned after the game, with proceeds going to the American Cancer Society and the Walleye Wishing Well.
