    Don’t think he’ll do it but would love if they could get Faust back next year

    Hope for nothing but the best for Nick Nickson during and after this season. Enjoy retirement G.

    To be replaced with Bill Mcdonald probably.

    THANK YOU NICK!!!

    I’m not going to be able to handle Foxys retirement. All the voices of kings hockey from my childhood first watching the kings on tv and in the car, all gone soon.

    saw this one coming, right? this is why letting faust go was such a head scratcher. we knew we only had another couple years with Nick…

    Honored to have listened to his voice over the course of my life. Thank you Nick! Have a blast of a final season.

    I was wondering why Josh Schafer (former play by play guy for Ontario) was brought up for the Kings this season. He’s listed as a broadcast contributor and host this season, but I wonder if he’ll become our permanent play by play guy next season and for years to come. He killed it a year or two ago when Nick was out with an illness. Actually prefer him to Faust.

    I was hoping to listen to Nickson for another decade. I have no idea how many nights I would listen to Nick as I drove home through traffic. The way he called the game helped me to visualize exactly what was happening on the ice.

    After moving out east, I truly started to appreciate what legends we have/had in Los Angeles. Chick Hearn, Vin Scully, Bob Miller, and Nick Nickson and the pinnacle of what an announcer should be.

    I wish Nick all the best in his retirement, but I will selfishly miss him next year.

  10. What are the chances they bring Alex Faust back? Zero?

    Bring back Alex Faust!!!

    Hard to believe that I typed that given my impression when first started doing Kings TV games, but he got a lot better and he and Jim Fox worked very well together.

    This is probably blasphemy, but for some reason Nick Nickson’s voice and delivery just doesn’t do much for me.

    Wasn’t this expected? I remember there being an announcement when Nick joined the simulcast that he was nearing the end of his run.

    \_  Let’s make it a hell of a season to end on

    I came from an era where I heard many Kings games on the radio his voice will be missed just as much as Bob’s. Best of luck to Nick in retirement. Well deserved. Stick taps.

  15. Really hope they bring up Josh from the Reign. He calls great games there, just top-notch.
