Icon55 Sabres legend Rick Jeanneret retiring after this season

https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/bu...pcoming-season

Losing some broadcasting greats lately. Makes me feel old! Love the way Jeanneret calls games.

I don't. I always found his calls annoying, the May day call is the most annoying call I have ever heard in hockey history, I can't stand it.

I feel like he's been retiring every year for the last decade... too bad the Sabres haven't been able to give him an adequate season to send off (and probably not this upcoming one either).

A true Buffalo and NHL legend.

Because I don't like the way a guy calls hockey games? Get off your high horse.

Again, you aren't disproving my initial assessment.
