@DonLaGreca nearly had an M.I. calling Game 1 of the Finals

LaGreca

LOS ANGELES —

Don LaGreca is one of the nicest guys you are going to find in the radio business and in the NHL. The Devils fan is a sideline reporter for the Rangers Radio Network and fills in when Kenny Albert is unavailable to do radio.

And Kenny wasn’t available to do Game 1 as he was calling the game on TV for NBC since Doc Emrick had a death in his family.

What follows is LaGreca’s call of the final minute of regulation of Game no. 1 of the Finals. It’s one of the best hockey radio calls I’ve ever heard, hands down. The passion here was palpable. And actually made me nervous listening to it on a replay.

Be sure your speakers aren’t too high — or your might wake someone or shatter an eardrum.

The hat is tipped to Bob Mantz and Bob’s Blitz, a website you should be reading daily.

Here in Port St. Lucie, Fla., Devils games come in more clear than Panthers games do

Have a listen for yourself -- from tonight’s game as heard in a car on WCBS Newsradio 88 -- nearly 1,200 miles from the transmitter. NOTE: You may hear some interference -- in Spanish. I’m told it’s from a powerful radio station in Cuba.

A little Panthers and some Devils.

Speaking of the Panthers, you've got to hear some of Randy Moller's goal calls — they were funny then, and they're still funny now

The Canessa Commentary

SUNRISE, Fla. —

Randy Moller

My satirical look at the Florida Panthers today made me realize something — the fans of the Devils need to learn some more about Panthers' radio play-by-play announcer Randy Moller, a former NHL defenseman who spent some time in the tri-state area with the New York Rangers.

Several years ago, Moller went to work for the Florida Panthers — and he quickly became the team's radio voice. And I must say — I'm not sure I enjoy a radio play-by-play announcer's work as much as I do Moller's.

In fact, last year, when our Devils played the Panthers in the first round, I purposefully made sure to listen to his call on the radio (online) while pausing the TV games to get the PBP lined up properly with all the delays.

It's not just how well he knows the game either — or how much of a true Canadian radio voice he has (and boy does he ever have a forceful presence on the air).

It's what he does after each Panthers' goal is scored.

It started, he told me a few years ago, when the Panthers were on 790 The Ticket in Miami, where Dan Lebatard does his daily radio show. Someone on the show coaxed Randy into saying a line from a movie at a game — and now, it's a staple after every Panthers' goal.

Moller's 1992 hockey card.

There are exceptions — Moller told me in an interview I'll embed here that he doesn't go nuts with the calls when the team is losing badly. But, he says, he gets tons of suggestions on lines to use. And, proudly, he says he's never once used the same line twice.

That's how popular the calls have become.

When Doc Emrick retired last season, there was a part of me that hoped Randy would find a way to come to our Devils to work. But Moller is very well comfortable working for the Panthers — and let's face it, there's probably not a better organization to work for than the Panthers.

His goal calls have become part of South Florida culture. And they're very, very entertaining. And combined with his excellent pure PBP skills, to me, there's no one better calling games on the radio than Randy. Period.

And if you've never heard them, you should take a listen now to some of his calls (I'm embedding two sets — and there are tons more on Youtube).

Chances are, you'll enjoy them.

And if you don't, call me the fool.

Talking hockey on 640 AM Sports in Pompano, Fla.

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. —

Every Sunday morning, I am fortunate to spend a few minutes talking hockey with my buddy, Marc Eisenberg, on 640 Sports Radio. This was a brief one, but I bring it to you today — and will do so each week. I almost always try to get something in about our New Jersey Devils.

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman on 'Boomer and Carton'

Commissioner says NHL Center Ice and Gamecenter Live should be heavily discounted — but not free. It can't be, he says, because of partnerships involved with the distribution. I say if that's the issue, pay the partners, Gary. Please allow a few seconds for the audio to load.
