PASabreFan Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 What a find. So interesting. A student of mass communication could do a great paper on this. Was he Rick yet? Listen to the language. How did it evolve? I like the goal call at the end. The quip is the deadpan Jeanneret we came to know and love. I just love this. God bless the Internet. Thank you, Al Gore! (I'm still hoping to find Rick's call of the Bisons' Calder Cup championship. It might be the closest we come to the real thing.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted April 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 The goal is by Derek Sanderson. 1965-66 Flyers? Hey, Tom Webster, you're on this roster. http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/leagues/seasons/teams/0051331966.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted April 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Nope. Must have been 1966-67 (Tannahill). http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/leagues/seasons/teams/0051331967.html Tannahill with the youngest combover in human history, only 17 or 18! And look at Sanderson. And Lorentz. http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/roster_gallery.php?tid=5133&sid=1967 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Is RJ doing the PA calls as well off mic? It sure sounded like he was announcing the penalties in the arena. His voice isn't as musical yet. As he matures his voice gets a little deeper and smoother and the lilt he uses becomes more sing-song. I think that's what I love about RJ, especially mature RJ. His calls are like music. The rise and fall, the stops and starts, you can almost see the notes on the page in your head. On a second listen, it's totally Rick doing the PA calls in addition to the play by play. That's awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I really think it is. It's gotta be. It could be his dad, yes. If you told me this was a home game for Niagara Falls, I would be more inclined to believe it (pulling double duty). But there doesn't seem to be a big ruckus when the Flyers score to make it 5-4. Another mystery is why Rick said that goal made it 5-4 Flyers, when he had earlier said it was 5-3 Kitchener. Rick was 23, 24. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
