Your most hated commentator lines

[Pilky01]

Anything Jim Hughson says.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

“It wouldn’t go” is Doc’s go-to phrase when the puck doesn’t go in the net, but he has no clue how it didn’t.

The older he gets, the more he has to use it.

Yea I honestly don't mind Doc it's just so cliche and kinda funny his phrases...

Another one: "and corralling the puck, is Chara"

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

John Gianonne is so anti-climatic and just ****ing awful.

Steve Cangialosi is awful as well. “HE SCARSSSS!!!” I haven’t been able to sit through a Devils game in years, and it’s mostly because of him.

Cangialosi’s voice is just really weird when he gets excited. The “SCARRRSSSS” thing is dead on.

 

[Chips]

Anytime Doc says "waffleboarded"

This is actually one of my favorite things, precisely because I only know wtf that means based on context.

I don’t mind some random PbP flavor here and there, it’s seems like the absolutely most casual thing you can do, making up a random sounding word lol

 

[McRpro]

"No chance for the goalie."

Craig Simpson says this all the friggin' time.

 

[ES]

I still don't know what a "mackinaw" is.

Butched pronunciation of MacKinnon

 

[DrMartinVanNostrand]

I still don't know what a "mackinaw" is.

But it's so obvious.

 

[ProspectsSTC]

Gary Koch's "Better than most" comment on Tiger Woods putt.

Makes me cringe

Here it comes...

 

[KlausJopling]

Off his helmet mask - Doc

 

[JCRO]

Any time Doc takes the extra time to say there's 120 seconds left in the period! (could have just said 2 minutes... Try hard)

 

[7Negaprion]

"Knifes the puck away!" - The Doc
But goodness, do I sure love "SCAAAAARS" to his credit. Pumps me up every time.

The GOAT



From the golden age of NHL



The masks, the music, the voice = chills !

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Kind of an oddity, but the commercial on TV right now with the kid scoring a goal in a road hockey gam and they sync in the TML local announcer calling a goal of Auston Matthews' into an empty-net and screaming "holy mackinaw" - that whole commercial's sound grates on my nerves. I'm not sure if the TML announcer always sounds like that, but in that particular commercial, he sounds borderline incoherent and somewhat like an angry alcoholic yelling at kids in the street.

 

[Summer Rose]

"The Boston Bruins have won the Stanley Cup" is one of my least favorite things to hear a commentator say.

 

[Dr Pepper]

Yeah I'd have to avoid any NESN highlights, if that comes to fruition. Jack Edwards is just nauseating.

I'll settle for either CBC audio, or muted.

 

[HajdukSplit]

Goring constantly goes on about how the Isles need to get their “chip and chase” game going

 

[Dilderon]

Anything Emerick says. Can't stand his obnoxious voice and how much of a dweeb he is. I can hardly watch games he calls.

I am a Flyers fan so for Jim Jackson it would be "joust for the puck", "diminutive forward/defenseman", "exchanging pleasantries" "LASER", there are more I can't remember, its just so unbelievably annoying to me.

 

[Scott Stevens]

I really hated the call of the avs game 6 winner by Landeskog to force a game 7 in San Jose.

“OH CAPTAIN, MY CAPTAIN!!!!! DO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO SAN JOSE?????!!!!!”

 

[Our Lady Peace]

Jim Hughson's "he shoots, he scores" often sounds really forced and unnatural.

THIS. 1000 TIMES. He says nothing else. Can't stand when he calls games because he's forcing his calls, especially an important one like a goal call.

 

[yada]

While i hate emerick i actually dont mind when he says the puck wouldnt go. I also dont mind when says "drive"

 

[Highmarker]

haha Jim Hughson when Vancouver used to play Chicago in the playoffs.

"Daniel to Henrik back to Daniel"

"here comes Pat Kane"

Just the way he called everyone by their first names annoyed me. Not to mention nobody even calls Patrick Kane "Pat" except Jim Hughson.

 

[KlausJopling]

Luckily for you that is impossible. NBC has exclusive rights after the 1st round. Last game Edwards will call this season was game 7 of the first round.

I too hate this commercial. I haven't watched a game on cable since that series but are they still running it as much? same with that stupid Mastercard commercial with Marner and Nylander. Boston truly did every Canadian a favor knocking out the leafs if those commercials get less air time.

 

[Dr Pepper]

FYI, that post was a rollercoaster. At first I thought you were saying it'd be impossible to avoid NESN highlights.

Which is scary enough.

But then you saved the day with all that talk about Edwards having mercifully called his last game already this season.

Much obliged.
