Thanks @bobsullender for the heads-up. First and only time I'll ever be referenced on a national radio show (starts at the 39:30 mark). I chuckled as they made it seem that I just happened to be there and jumped on air in the heat of the moment. bit.ly/2RxJDLc

@wyshynski @roybelly @GoldenKnights Yes, just what the sports world is missing: more cliched drivel & empty calorie junk food quotes. What I'd like to see in all sports is more in-game interviews, brain dead studio analysis and more post-game access...Said NO ONE EVER!!! Feature reporting, sure. All else is BS.

FWIW, I expect @GoldenKnights will get their 2nd round pick back if they show some fealty and travel to New York next week to meet with Bettman and Daly. But the message has been sent and it's a good one: NHL popularity is surging. Freezing out coverage is counterintuitive.

@BlueInNC16 @otheredtoo @TomCaron Closer to 35 years ago if memory serves. '90-'91 I believe was the last year of on-campus Best-of-3 first rounds.

@otheredtoo @TomCaron They stopped doing that over 20 years ago

Providence College is located 114 miles from Quinnipiac University. The two teams will play in Sioux Falls, North Dakota - a mere 1,544 miles away.

@Craigryb Good luck on the call today! 😉 My old eyes are glad I'm taking this one in as a fan in the stands today and not a broadcaster.

@clahanna Since she is media, I'm thinking her "high demand" notation was meant from a media perspective. There's no mention of fan attendance as this event will obviously be sold out. But media interest around the world??? Low demand...not too hard to figure out. 🤷‍♂️

The women’s hockey Olympic Gold Medal final between Canada and USA is not considered a “high demand” event, meaning media attending will get spots in the press box on a first come first serve basis. The only hockey game considered “high demand” is the Men’s hockey final. #Olympics #MilanoCortina2026

@RocKnighthawks @Wegmans Coming off a bye week...zero effort tonight. Hope there's some long hard looks in the mirror because I'd like to believe this team is exponentially more talented than what the home crowd saw tonight. Brutal...

Not our night. Back to work.🥍🦅 @Wegmans #rochesterknighthawks #rochesterny #boxlacrosse #NLL #builttohunt

@JoeChurrow @AnnouncersNHL Agree on the comparison, but tbh, that's an exceptionally low bar to surpass.

Once again, TNT Sports will have a remotely called game today, with the Maple Leafs–Senators called from the Atlanta studio by Steve Mears & Colby Armstrong. Remote broadcasts are a detriment to the fans and the industry, and we won’t stand for these foolish cost-cutting moves.

@NHL @NHL_On_TNT @SportsonMax @Sportsnet Canadian TV producers really need to give a little friendly advice to their American counterparts on how to run the EFX feed on their broadcasts. Hard to believe 19k on hand in Ottawa and the TBS feed sounds like a library... embarrassing. Canadians just get it!!!

OTTAWA TAKES THE LEAD! 🚨 #StanleyCup 🇺🇸: @NHL_On_TNT & @SportsonMax ➡️ max.com/sports/nhl 🇨🇦: @Sportsnet or stream on Sportsnet+ ➡️ watch.sportsnet.ca

@NLL @RocKnighthawks Rochester playing uncharacteristically poorly tonight, down 11-9 with 4:52 left in the game, but the officiating has been atrocious all game long.

Good evening and welcome to the end of Wayne Gretzky's career He's at the Ovechkin game tonight - along with Trump Con Man and @FBIDirectorKash Popeye Patel If there was one moment when Gretzky's path towards self-destruction became unalterable, it was tonight.

Enjoying my vacation in Brownsville, TX. But as season ticket holder, I'm 1900 miles away from where I'd like to spend the next 2 1/2 hours cheering on the @RocKnighthawks during their stretch run heater. Fortunately, ESPN+ gives me coverage with @Craigryb on the call!!!

@slapschotts A bit disjointed, but I got it out...😂

@RadioUFA Thanks for the shoutout!

@Craigryb @RocKnighthawks @GeorgiaSwarmLAX @1073TheBull @NLL Enjoying your call with TV audio down. Now, your call is all there is with the video stream down for the last 15 minutes...🤬🤬🤬

My view tonight for my call of the ⁦@RocKnighthawks⁩ vs ⁦@GeorgiaSwarmLAX⁩. Tune in at 7:30 pm on ⁦@1073TheBull⁩. ⁦@NLL⁩

@SimmerDownCIH Keeping you in my prayers, brother...take care of yourself. ♥️

Being on the show has been an amazing experience but I need to step away and take care of myself. Wally and Yorkie have been extremely supportive throughout and I can't thank them enough for everything they have done. But for now my focus needs to be on taking care of myself.

@TSNHammer Totally concur...gonna miss him on the Sens telecasts though!

Flames fans are getting an incredible PxP voice and an even better person. The Calgary community is lucky to have you. Congrats!

@awfulannouncing My favorite part

We have not heard back from NFHS Network despite multiple inquiries. They've also claimed copyright on the video which was posted by a concerned parent. With the video now off-line, we are posting it here with permission from the parent as it is clearly newsworthy.

@philgpbp @Mark_J_Boyle @Eddie_Gill4 @Pacers @Bucks @ElevanceHealth And that well-used (by me) remedy was shared with me by @BobbyMacSports waaay back in our AHL days.

@Mark_J_Boyle @Eddie_Gill4 @Pacers @Bucks @ElevanceHealth Throat coat rules. IIRC @RadioUFA suggested blackberry brandy in the past as well! Feel better!

I’ve been struggling with my voice the last day or two, so @Eddie_Gill4 shows up at the game with these. He carries me in more ways than one. Join us at 8:00 for @Pacers- @Bucks Game 2 at 8:00 along our statewide @ElevanceHealth Radio Network.

Congrats on 400 tonight @Craigryb ...always enjoy the call for road games and on the rare occasion when I can't make it to the home tilts!!! All the best on 400 more!!!

Mavs add points from the portal.

@Dan_DUva @NLGrowlers Agreed on all Dan...great people up and down the various organizations throughout the years. A sad day indeed...

Of all the places I’ve visited to broadcast sports, none is more special than St. John’s, Newfoundland. I’m sorry the Newfoundland Growlers era is over. To staff and supporters of the @NLGrowlers (and St. John’s Maple Leafs, IceCaps, Fog Devils, et al.): Thank you. Take pride. Your community optimizes hockey. The game needs you as much as you need a team. Godspeed.

@goon48 The Pairwise and auto bids are cut and dried...to whine about is pretty ridiculous. Time to move on Coach and be better next year. Bad look for a program that made huge strides back to relevancy this season.

The Pairwise Ranking is fine, it doesn’t need to be tweaked. This is why wins in regulation are key.
