A lot of you guys were likely not alive for this game (or were very young lol), but I remember this one vividly...

Pretty pretty good.

Talking of announcers.

No Leaf game call ever compared to Bob. Was bullshit when he went to do the Habs games instead.

Best of them IMO:

RIP to an absolute legend.

That was the great thing about Bob, he would let the crowd do the heavy lifting for him, he would announce the goal (Mario's goal above is a great example) and just let the crowd noise tell you what we just watched was something really special.
