[Video] Peter Maher's calls during 2004

[AC]

In addition to the last few 14/15 videos, I've been posting some goals or moments from 2004 in better quality since many are either very short, very poor quality, or both.

Here are the ones so far (old and new):

However I had a request to post the Peter Maher version of the Gelinas OT goal vs Detroit and figured something like this might be enjoyable featuring 4 different play by play calls of his:

I should also thank the person who used to host the website http://lindstrom.ca/flamesplayoffs/audio.htm (http://web.archive.org/web/20120313071142/http://lindstrom.ca/flamesplayoffs/audio.html) for the Maher mp3s.

The site is down now, but I managed to find an archived version that still works (linked above).

"yeah baby!, yeah baby!!!"
wow, he is amazing. Who doesn't remember him should stop.

AC is the best, no one can beat him.

Peter's a beauty; a shout out to Beesley as well.

Great work AC.

Agh these videos are really getting me excited for the season to begin, one more long month!

[BigT112]

This got me pumped up. I cannot wait for the season to start! Haven't been this excited for a hockey season in a long time.

Man, that Mike Rogers yell right before Gelinas' game 6 goal versus Detroit...

I was at that game (my seats are in second tier just over that net's right hand side) and saw that whole play develop. We all jumped out of our seats when that rebound came out, before Gelinas tapped it in.

Hearing the radio audio later that night just confirmed that Peter and Rogers had seen exactly what we did. Still get chills!

Edit: Oh, and that Gelinas goal against SJ! When Conroy was going to the face-off dot, we could see him kinda gesture to Gelinas...kind of a head bob forward or something; can't quite remember. Then after the goal, my Dad and I looked at each other and were like: "So THAT'S what they were planning!" Such a smart, smart line those guys were...

[Strange Brew]

Yeah the Mike Rogers yell just before the Detroit goal call is simply one of my favorite Flames moments. I had that goal call on my mp3 player many years ago. Great way to pass 30 seconds on a long run.

New 2004 video. Again I wasn't able to find this goal anywhere on YouTube. I'll upload the Saprykin OT goal next.

Don't want to start a thread about this but since we're on the subject of Peter I have a question. Has anyone else heard a rumor that Peter didn't want to retire and in fact he was forced out by the upper powers?

[ScorchyScorch]

My how I forget how good Iginla was those playoffs. Probably the best player in the sport at that time.

I've read that a couple times. I guess it could make sense since as great as he was he was definitely starting to miss plays and miss names and all that.

Nothing catastrophic, but I could see how it may have been enough for the higher ups to say 'Hey man, we love everything you've done and want no business turfing a legend, so do you want to go out on your own terms?'.

[hockey.modern]

I wished we could've had Peter this year for all our comebacks and especially Gaudreaus, backlands goals in the playoffs.

Bumping this with the Saprykin OT goal in game 5 of the finals off of "The Shift" by Iginla.

Again, the only other versions on YouTube are super low quality (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8PeKp6uAnM) and/or very short (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkJjibyX89U).

Montador's reaction while on the ice after Gelinas goal vs Detroit is awesome, you can see it better on the replays. What a guy.....
