MY GOODNESS that was some kind of glove save

Sounds like he's leaving on his own accord. 10 years is a pretty good run especially when you see the high job turn over in sports media.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

The product of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan will be missed.

Yes, I made a thread.

[Fig]

Good for him. TBH, I was surprised he didn't leave sooner due to the health issues he had.

Hopefully he's going to still be around and still do lots of guest appearances on local shows and whatnot.

 

[Anglesmith]

You really can't say enough about this man's work in the booth.

Met Loubo at a Flames pre season game in Saskatoon years ago. He was one level above with a camera crew when I said hey and asked for a picture, instead of crouching down and taking a quick pic, the guy climbed right over the railing, hopped down and shook my hand.

Genuinely good dude, all the best to him!

 

[Tofveve]

The guy does his darnedest to always be positive even though it felt like at times he was the Michael Stone of Sportsnet and the Flames. He is a knowledgeable hockey man, passionate. Isn't he the son of Loco Lous too? Sounds like we'll be still hearing of him and from him, so that's good news. Wishing him all the best in his new endeavors!

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Was one of the few good ones left.

 

[BigRangy]

Was very surprised to be listening to him calling the Brick tournament going on in Edmonton right now. Some serious production value being put into a tourney for 10 year olds.

 

[MM917]

Seems like a very nice person and has a lot of knowledge of the game.

PBP and Color was a terrible fit for him, especially at the NHL level, his long winded boring stories and inability to be critical in anyway made listening to him painful, but I am sure there is a fit for that positivity and knowledge somewhere. It is too bad their is no money in Junior hockey because I think that positivity and lack of criticism would work with a younger group of players.
