Mike Lange back on TV!

[dare2be]

Ahhh, it feels so good to have Mike Lange back doing TV broadcasts. Oh, sorry, it's just the NHL Network re-airing of the 1991 SCF Game 6, but still.

Lange is the best....I'm always suprised by how many people from outside of Pittsburgh don't like him....

Steiggy is almost unnoticeable/bearable as Lange's color guy...

Yeah, well, sometimes I can be downright uncooth. It's still on for another hour and a half...enjoy it.

i'm watching it for the postgame coverage (i've seen this many times because i own the 10 greatest games set), but they cut off any post game stuff for the most part.

my wife (fiancee at the time) and I drove out to the airport to see the team in at 2AM. What awesome memories.

The thing I never liked with him is he is such a blatant homer. Now a lot of cities have that but usually the color guy will question them or call it straight.

Like RJ in Buffalo but the color guy will call him out and Robby will rip the team when they are playing like shit. I like that give me honesty not homersty.

Sorry but I don't see that in Pitt or Boston for that matter they are terrible. Some of the best I have seen are west coast like Vancouver and Ana and LA

lange isn't that bad. he certainly leans toward the home team, but he's not outwardly homerific. Steiggy is horrible, and errey is actually quite good at keeping it real.

I agree with that. He sucks!!! I swear I think he wants to blow Crosby. Sorry for the lang.

i really really do...because Steiggy only got the lead job because his brother is heavily involved...they kicked a HoF LEGEND off of the TV for a man that constantly puts his foot in his mouth, is a blantant homer, and has HORRIBLE eyes for the game. He basically relies on Bobby for everything. Errey has a keen eye for the little aspects, he sees stuff that is way over Steiggy's head, and is nearly always right the first time something happens. Example. Flyers score goal, isn't called because it was quick or something. Steiggy "Ohhh, and the Penguins make an amazing effort to keep that goal off the board!" Errey "I dunno Steiggy, at first glance that looked like it crossed the line!" Steiggy "*inappropriate joke about Hobey Baker*"

Well Boss, as Meatloaf sang, two out of three ain't bad. Van and LA are good, but the tag team of Ahlers and Hayward for the Ducks are brutal.

I actually like L.A.'s team better than ours, honestly.

OK but it seems like Van's are good.
