Your favourite Jim Robson call:

Post by theman »

He has passed on today, thought this could make a good thread.
If a kid could fix my YouTube link, that would be great.

My all-time favourite:

"Greg Adams! Greg Adams!"


Second all-time has to be Brown to Bure... "Yeeeaaahh!!! He scores!!!"
"Look, I'm just a bitter old man, ok! :D"

I tried to find a Jim Robson call on the "the save" but the only YouTube clip I could find of it I don't think was Jim doing the call.

On the bright side you figured out embedding YT clips.

The call he made each and every night, it meant a lot to so many people sitting by their radios.

"A special hello to hospital patients and shut-ins, the pensioners, the blind, all the people who don't get out to games but enjoy the hockey broadcasts..."

Legend.

Some forget that Robson had the call for HNIC for a time.

The Islanders first Cup.

Start in at 130 for the goal.

DeLevering since 1999.
