Speculation: Who will be the next radio 'Voice of the Bruins'?

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Hire Dr. Johnny Fever for all I care. I don't listen to a game.

As long as they can speak intelligently to the sport on the Saturday morning show.

 

[eightspokedb]

Absolutely LOVE Goucher/Beers....mute the TV sound and sync the radio to the TV.

As long as the new guy isn't a screamer I'm good....

 

[FribbleLine]

No to Caron

 

[DominicT]

Bruins fan, already calls black and gold hockey

 

[Gordoff]

Bob Wilson was THE king! I still miss the way he bellowed with his deep pipes. He had a way better voice than the Garden organ. I remember that before the B's game for years they would play a riff from a Chicago song (can't remember which one). It was the kind of opening that put chills up and down your spine! (Fenway/Kevin) I'll bet you can remember it?
No absolutely NOT to Tom Caron, Ditto to Dale (daisies, sunshine and butterflies) Arnold. Duthie?? I guess so but Bartlett sounds like Montreal so NO to him too. There was a guy who did a preseason game or two a few years back but I can't remember his name off the top of my head. I ended up in a discussion with him on Facebook I believe. He was a natural at it and was a very cordial guy. He invited my wife and I to (I beleive) it was a Providence Bruins game but we had to decline. If I can find our or remenber his name I'll be back with it.

So few tapes of Bob Wilson exist it is maddening. WBZ Radio threw them all away 20 years ago because they were not considered newsworthy.

Here is one clip from 1978 - Wilson play by play - Bob Lobel on color

Dom, would this be a gig Reed would be interested in or is he comfortable where he is?

 

[Alicat]

Ryan Johnston who has called BC Hockey games would be good.

He would love it. Big Bruins Fan but his bias wouldn't show through.

I know Jack Edwards has seen his work and I think has provided some guidance.

 

[rudos1]

Shame Goucher is going I really liked him the little bit I do listen to them in the car on the radio.. Not sure who would be a good replacement would be tho...

 

[smithformeragent]

Ryan Johnston who has called BC Hockey games would be good.

Good call.

Completely forgot about him.

Love him on the weekends and during his fill in roles.

 

[JRull86]

Absolutely sick of Dale Arnold. Really hope they don't go in that direction.

Man, so many nights as a kid listening to that voice fading in and out through static on my bedroom radio, an old heavy Philco Ford pressed directly to my ear.

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Why are people in here thinking that NESN people would leave to go to radio?

Holy hell if they do ill only listen to away feeds forever

that would be nice, I think you may have posted a clip of his work and he was great, what a thrill it would be for Reed too. Wonder if he`s handed in those clips, hope so

I know he's putting together a collection to send in. He will take a run at the position. That much I can guarantee you. Besides hockey, he also does wrestling, football and some MMA. He's capable of crossing over a variety of sports which bodes well for him.

I didn`t know he did all those other sports. I know him only as well as one can listening to you guys on the 3 Amigos and he sure knows his stuff. Fingers crossed for him

I wish him the best of luck.

One harsh reality is for a Canadian getting a US work visa in a short period of time. There is a lot more red tape today.

 

[Alberta_OReilly_Fan]

Just please no idiot who has to go with obscure peanut butter references everytime a goal is scored. And no dennis potvin or glen healey idiots either

Honestly i really really really have enjoyed brickley and beers now. I can handle edwards. Arnold was ok... gauch never bothered me

I dont want an announcer that attempts to be the star... just call the game and ill be fine

Hope reeder leaves it all on the table. Could be such a great opportunity for him. He researches like crazy, too. Passion really shines through. Go reeder go

 

[Terrier]

Meetaparallel? Good lord, he can have this:

And don't be a screamer....

 

[HockeyMomx2]

I like Dale, I feel like some don't though.

Whats Tom Caron up to?

Tom Caron is a POS ******* who's so bad at his job he can't get out of the NESN market. He so desperately wants to be the big man on campus and he's awful. No. No. No. I wasn't able to stand watching Friday night college hockey with the sound on because of the grating of his awful voice. It will be horrible being forced to listen to it for B's games.

Reed Duthie

+ 3 for Reed!
