Rotfl, well now I know where 11 comes from.

You're basically Jim Carrey in that movie The Number 23.

I'll take your word for it lol. I think the last movie of his I watched was where he lived in the TV or some shit. Weirdness

 

[Foppa2118]

"To the Blackhawks Organization, the late Rocky, Danny and the Wirtz family, all of my video coaches, GM’s, athletic and equipment trainers, strength coaches, scouting staff and all those that put it all together..."

All his video coaches? WTF?

 

[UncleRisto]

All his video coaches? WTF?

Well, he wrote "all of my coaches". But you can't argue that doesn't include all of his video coaches.

"All of my coaches, except the one of them."

 

[CobraAcesS]

There had to be someone helping him not be overrated defensively at least on occasion.

Toews vs Crosby is like the joke of a century as far as media hype, and I don't even like Cry Baby that much.

Oh ok you added the video part to that sentence. I was legit shocked to read that.

[Balthazar]

Damn.

Edit: So many legendary calls...I mean how can you not get excited?

 

[The Moops]

Legendary voice. RIP

 

[sethro109]

Well f***. I always loved hearing him say "Top shelf where Momma hides the cookies!"

​

 

[The Moops]

My fav

 

[S E P H]

Some of these team songs, I didn't even know we had one TBF.

 

[Balthazar]

My fav

Can you imagine how that city will react when the Sabres win their next playoff series. After all those years of suffering...it's going to be f***ing wild.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

We really need something other than a like button. A way to acknowledge something bad that has happened, without making one feel like a dick for clicking the "Like" button.

Can't wait. They've been my 2nd favorite team for a long time

 

[Soedy]

Well f***. I always loved hearing him say "Top shelf where Momma hides the cookies!"

​

Yeah, I actually always say this when I hit top shelf in practice. Which is only once a year but anyway, his voice was unique and awesome.

RIP, one of my favorite PBP guys growing up.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Can't wait. They've been my 2nd favorite team for a long time

Same. Back in the days Maxim Afinogenov was my second favourite player after Foppa.

If you can't understand your coaches, you don't have to listen to them.

Of course everyone is Canadian, obviously, but he could still say that.

Actually, the head coach is Latvian.

No hable (insert language) coach.

 

[Metallo]

Unique voice. Unbound enthousiasm. Colorful calls. He could almost make you root for the Sabres singlehandedly.

La-La-La-Lafontaine to you Sir.

La-La-La-Lafontaine to you Sir.

Jeanneret called the game like you're supposed to.

You draw the audience into the game and get them excited, because they're usually sitting on the couch watching it in 2D, instead of live at the arena.

One of the best to ever do it.
