Bob and Harry/Joe and Harry/Tom and Jerry

 

[Muston Atthews]

Bob Cole, Harry Neale, Joe Bowen, Jerry Howarth, Joe Siddall, Chris Cuthbert, Gord Miller, Ray Ferraro all guys I’ve enjoyed listening to

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Bob Cole and Harry Neale are number one no question. Cole especially has had so many memorable calls for this franchise. I'll always remember the Sundin OT Winner against Ottawa in Game 1 of the 2001 Playoffs.



Cuthbert is great, Miller too. After them I guess Joe Bowen.

 

[The Best Leafs Ever]

Joe Bowen

 

[Hoverhand]

1. Hughson/Simpson
2. Bowen/Ralph
3. Buck/Pat

Harry Neale was the funniest guy ever to grace the broadcast booth, he and Bowen added a lot of joy to the broadcast when the Leafs were having off nights

Buck Martinez was a great colour guy for Dan Schulman, Buck and Pat are OK but Tabler sounds like he got beaned 1 too many times some nights

 

[ObscureAlien]

Cuthbert

The rest.

 

[firstemperor]

Bob Cole, Cuthbert

 

[BM14]

[nsleaf]

I know TO teams only requested by the OP but cannot go without mentioning the two legends of hockey pbp, Foster Hewitt and Danny Gallivan

 

[BodaciousBeefBazooka]

Cuthbert

The rest.

I agree. Elisha Cuthbert is very nice to look at.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Cole and Neale made every game feel epic.

Hughson is not even close.

 

[Nineteen67]

Bob and Harry/Joe and Harry/Tom and Jerry

I’ll add Chevrier/Kubek. Brian Williams did Jays games too.

 

[crump]

Bob and Harry/Joe and Harry/Tom and Jerry

yes. I'd add Schulman and Martinez to this list of greats.

Cole called it like you would call it if you could muster the words for yourself, it always had a real personal feel too it. Professional, timed perfectly and glorious when something big happened.

Bowen is a great homer pick (if we are honest with ourselves), in his heyday there was no one better at capturing the excitement of the game for a home-town fan. Also funny as hell with Harry.

 

[al secord]

Bob Cole/Harry Neal. Dan Dunleavy.

 

[IBeL34f]

Bob Cole and Harry Neale, unquestionably - The voices of my childhood.

 

[SHANNYPLAN]

JOE BOWEN

 

[Clark4Ever]

Bob Cole is still my all time favourite. I don't care if he's losing his memory, lol.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Bob Cole and Harry Neale, unquestionably - The voices of my childhood.
