Are you implying that the word "racism" or "racist" should only be used in certain circumstances?

It should be used in reference to race. It’s right there in the word.
Cherry is not racist towards northern Europeans. He’s never made prejudicial comments about people due to their northern European descent. He thinks hockey players raised and trained in Sweden and Russia aren’t as tough as those raised in English Canada. So he has bigotry against them, but it’s not racism.
Of course he may well be racist about other people.
