It’s a typo. He’s expected to reach 3,800 games by the end of next year.

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought I logged into Calgary Puck. It appears I must be on TSN.

My bad.

I thought he retired years ago, but I guess that was one of the other local radio guys with silly catch phrases who is a legend in his own market.

I'll miss him. I listen to a lot of hockey broadcast on the radio and the Leafs broadcast is among the best out there.
