NESN Announcer Jack Edwards Jumps For Joy After Bruins Tie the Game (Video)
When something really big happens in a game, we expect the announcer to get excited. We expect a shift in both the tone and volume of his voice, and we expect some kind of superlative expression.

The list of interesting jobs performed by NHLers during the lockout is growing longer and weirder everyday.

Last season it was Cam Janssen of the New Jersey Devils beating out the competition to earn the first ever “Frozen Fisticuffs Fighter of the Year” award.
