Is the announcer still going to be Jow Bowen?

I really hope not.

Bowen doesn't do CBC games, so no

 

[frankthetank91]

Well i'd imagine CBC would snatch the rights to our games as quickly as possible so no I don't think so. I like Bowen though better than Hughson anyways.

 

[The Reaper]

Doubt it

Most playoff games are on CBC, TSN or NBC

 

[LV*]

Nope, it'll be probably be Nealy.

was this a joke?

I really hope so.

Fixed.

As long as Hughson goes to call the Canucks series, I'll be happy.

 

[Rayzorexe]

Only for the TSN1050 and FAN590 Broadcast on the radio...which is where I listen to games when I'm at work.

 

[BonMorrison]

Wouldn't Bowen still do the radio broadcast?

 

[Winreims]

I'd LOVE to have Bob Cole call a Leafs series again, but with our luck we'd get ****ing Jim Hughson/Craig Simpson/Glenn Healy ..

 

[12345678910]

Bob and Harry would be glorious

 

[Patty Lee]

Bob and Harry would be glorious

if it was 2004

 

[LeafOfBread]

He won't be, but I would much rather have Joe Bowen than Hughson, Simpson and Healy ever.

Honestly, I wish CBC would bring Chris Cuthbert back.

Chris Cuthbert is the best in the biz. Unbiased and calls the game well.

 

[Twix]

Bob and Harry would be glorious

Best duo by far AINEC.

 

[Daisy Jane]

Bowen would do radio calls.
i think it would depend on how the final standings shook up. If it was Montreal/NJD (that's Cole). and we'd get Hughson for the Leafs/Winnipeg. and for the Boston/Ottawa match. (CBC would maybe want that but would probably want to keep Montreal).

the big question is if it's the Habs Leafs... does cole do the call?
(please, PLEASE yes).

Dean Brown will do the Ottawa series. he and Potvin make the worse duo in the business by far.

I despise Dean Brown. The homer is strong in that one.

 

[SnazzyNazzy]

Doesn't matter, Bowen will do the radio calls while I mute whoever is doing CBC. Loved Bob Cole grew up with but sorry he's senile and hasn't been able to call games for YEARS now. Not even going near the Hughson/Simpson/Healey fiasco.

This.

He'll call some series between American teams. Oh well.

 

[Penalty Kill Icing*]

We will most likely get CBC's elite broadcasting team:

Hughson, Simpson, Healy.

 

[Doshy]

Bowen's playoff calls are amazing.

I wish we'd get him for it, but he'll probably do radio.

 

[Count Von Grabo*]

We will most likely get CBC's elite broadcasting team:

Hughson, Simpson, Healy.

 

[HarrisonFord]

Why the hate for Bowen? I like having our games called by a guy who is quite clearly a Leafs fan rather than a bunch of bitter Leaf haters like Hughson, Healey, Simpson, etc.

this... he's the best at his job in the entire NHL i can't believe the hate

How does Bowen even get his top button done up. Head is massive. We will be on CBC.
