That was awesome.
Colour me shocked! Shocked I tells Ya! That Edmonton would fabricate stories about Peter in the 86 playoffs.
I had no idea that Rod Pederson was living in Calgary and broadcasting his show there. He was apparently in the running for Wills play by play job to replace Peter, but had some personal problems to battle that took him out of the running.
I imagine he’s also at least an option for content or replacing Wills for the Fan960 at some point, but who know what he’s making on his current self run gig.
One interesting thing about Rod that I had no idea until the last 5 or 6 years is that his Dad was a long time scout for the Dallas Stars.
Before broadcasting Roughrider & Pats games he broadcasted for the Prince Albert Raiders. I doubt many of the players then knew his Dad was an NHL scout.
