Jon Cooper opened his end of season media availability by apologizing for the "emotional, quite frankly dumb words that came out of my mouth the other night. For that, I'm sorry."

Coopper said, "As you know, it was a pretty disappointing series loss the other night. I made an inappropriate analogy about goalies in skirts. It’s one of those moments if you could just reach back and grab the words back, I would have. As a father of two, especially a massive supporter of women’s hockey, I have girls that play sports. Quite frankly, it was wrong and I had go and explain myself to my girls. I sincerely apologize to all I offended. It's pained me more than the actual series loss itself."

As a Leafs fan, I hate this coach. But, as a person he really does seem like a great person, one who made a mistake and owned up to it, understanding good apology didn't earn him automatic forgiveness. Good on him.
