Pierre Houde Named to Hall of Fame Foster Hewitt Award

[BehindTheTimes]

I don’t understand French, but I would often choose the French broadcast over the English because of this man. Absolutely terrific.

Deserved. He is the best voice french for Habs. I always like him.

"Et le BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT! "
love it lol and he likes it so much, and loves the French language in general.

I was curious - Is getting that prize really the same as being named to the Hall of Fame? I thought you were named as a builder and took part of the next year's batch. This sounds like more of "just" a prize for me.

I think he deserves to be in the HoF anyways, hes been the voice of the habs for decades and OMG TVA sucks with its "Il ... l................ANCE!" and its "aye yaye yayayaye".

Houde won't call tonight's Habs game against the Sabres because he's being inducted into the HOF. Marc Denis will also not be on the broadcast as he will be at the HOF for Pierre.

I am from Slovakia, understand very little in French, but I always watch the games or highlights with Mr. Houde.

Holy f*** that's so weird! But he would've been good after getting used to it.

He's definitely the voice of the Canadiens (and F1) for me. An absolute legend. Well deserved.

Coup d'théâtre!
Et le but!
Ma parole!
ET ON ROULE À MONTRÉAL!

On ira pas plus loin...

He's like a 2nd dad to me

Well deserved. Le dernier des mohicans, dans la lignée des grands de la soirée du hockey.
