Jack Edwards announces he will retire after this season

[SImpelton]

I’ve grown to like him.
Younger me would call me an utter embarrassment for saying it.
But when he was on, he called a good game - he actually did.

Tough to see his delivery diminish, it was time. But stupid he isn’t going out on his sword to the completion of the Bruins season (or on top if they win it all)

Jack finished his season. NESN isn't broadcasting any of the remaining games.

Jack's a legend. Regardless of what all the cry babies say.

Man, those clips of jack calling games from 2005-2020 are amazing.

Him giving dougie Hamilton a hard time because jack’s a true whalers fan was amazing.

 

[yada]

Edwards was top tier back when he called national games for ESPN and HDNet. Almost as good as Thorne tbh.

Shit i hated him when he called games for espn, i disliked long before i ever knew he did games for the bruins. First time i heard him was in 03

Let me guess @Fenway didn’t include a source? I respect what Fenway has done for HFBoards, but the man has been known to just throw things at the wall and hopes something sticks. I could make a list of his claims that were just blatant lies.

All this coming from the guy who thinks Florida has the loudest arena, lmao. Talk about throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks.

yeah well, I don't like John Forslund but he seems to be popular with a lot of people. I guess its just personal preference. But Edwards made the games exciting to watch.

I guess he’s a Redditor now.

 

[Jee]

I guess he’s a Redditor now.

I can hear his voice when I'm reading and I'm annoyed

 

[Maliki2]

So happy that asshole is gone!

 

[PB37]

So happy he's still elite at making space in the heads of certain fanbases even while retired lmao.

 

[SteelCityCannon]

This is hilarious. Jack definitely loves his B's.

Hard to hate a True Poster like myself.

I've seen more coherent things come from mulletman, wtf even is that

I mean there’s like 3 sentences that are vaguely coherent, and then there’s something about garlic and I lost it after there.

That said, I would bet this either falls under “contact outside the crease” and was in fact initiated by the attacking player, or “contact inside the crease” and Jack is just wrong.

Watched the Kings-Bruins matinee earlier today.

I miss that asshole.
