Not every team has Rick Jeanneret. My favorite Wild call isn’t even commentary, it’s just a sound…

RJ has soooo many great calls. May Day is great but when Brian Campbell sent Umberger to another planet was on another level for me. RJ will always be the best play by play announcer ever. It’s not debatable.

The « May day » was awesome. As a Leafs Fan though, beating detroit in 93 was awesome. Really anything Bob Cole for the Leafs was amaze balls

Rick Jeanneret could read the Bible and I would listen.
He could read the dictionary and I would pay to listen

Not my teams but the two that give me chills are when Washington beat Pittsburgh in the playoffs (can’t even remember the year)
Patrick Roy vs Chris Osgood and the announcer going crazy
Felix Potvin vs Ron Hextall
The Pittsburgh announcer when Nick Bonino scored
The NY Rangers announcer when Marek Malik scored in the shootout
The announcer who announced Kyle Turris’ shootout goal vs the NY Islanders (Phoenix vs NY Islanders – Dave Tippett was coaching Phoenix)
Daniel Sedin’s final goal in overtime (set up by his brother no less) to mention the hell of a career both of them had..

OFF THE FLOOR! ON THE BOARD! PAUL KARIYA!!

My favorite RJ call is probably the Hannan goal in 4OT against the Devils. “This series is going back to where Jimmy Hoffa is” has to be one of the best lines ever spoken by a commentator

One that gives me goosebumps is when Sidney Crosby scored the golden goal, I watch that every now again just to get that feeling of pride for my country

Goldie with “LET’S GO HOME BABY!!!” From the then longest shootout of all time (and first time the NHL cycled through the entire roster in a shootout).

Not even a Sabres fan and I can say just about anything called by Janneret is going to the best you hear.
Sam Rosen’s « THE WAITING IS OVER!! » 94 SCF call will always have a special place in my heart, but there’s also his « RANGERS, RANGERS, RANGERS WIN! » call against Pitt from a few years ago.

Even though I’m a Bruins fan the announcer from Buffalo Rick Jeanneret’s MAY DAY, MAY DAY …. Brad May’s overtime winner was Classic .
Henrique it’s over
