The hockey world mourns the passing of Bob Cole, a titan in the broadcasting booth who narrated Canada's favorite sport for five decades. Cole, known for his infectious enthusiasm and signature "Oh baby!" call, passed away peacefully at the age of 90 in his hometown of St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. A Life Dedicated to Hockey Broadcasting Born in 1933, Cole's passion for hockey ignited early on. His broadcasting career began in 1969 with a radio call of a game between the Boston Bruins and the Montreal Canadiens. Just four years later, he transitioned to television, joining the iconic "Hockey Night in Canada" (HNIC) program. For the next 46 years, Cole's voice became synonymous with the game itself, calling countless historic moments that captivated the nation. Bob Cole Iconic Calls: The Soundtrack of Canadian Hockey History Cole's distinctive play-by-play style brought a unique energy to every game he called. He possessed the remarkable ability to heighten the drama and excitement of the sport, leaving an indelible mark on fans' memories. Some of his most legendary calls include: The 1972 Summit Series: This epic eight-game battle between Canada and the Soviet Union remains a defining moment in hockey history. Cole's passionate calls added a layer of drama to the on-ice action, forever etching these games into the hearts of Canadian fans. The 2002 Olympic Gold Medal Game: Witnessing Canada defeat the heavily favored United States in Salt Lake City was a moment of national pride. Cole's electrifying call of Mario Lemieux's golden goal solidified the game's place in hockey lore. Numerous Stanley Cup Finals: Over his long career, Cole called countless Stanley Cup Finals, capturing the intensity and elation of hockey's ultimate prize. A Broadcasting Icon and Industry Respected Figure Cole's contributions to hockey broadcasting were widely recognized. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1996, receiving the Foster Hewitt Memorial Award for his outstanding career. Players, coaches, and fellow broadcasters alike expressed their admiration for his talent and dedication. "He made every game he called sound bigger," said NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. "He transcended generations by sharing his obvious passion for our game..." "The hockey world, we lost a legend," mourned Winnipeg Jets coach Rick Bowness. "All the coaches...they trusted him. He was a true pro." A Legacy That Endures Bob Cole's voice will forever be etched in the memories of Canadian hockey fans. He was more than just a broadcaster; he was a storyteller, weaving narratives of triumph, heartbreak, and everything in between. His passion for the game was contagious, and his ability to capture the essence of hockey's magic inspired generations of fans. While his voice may be gone, his legacy will continue to resonate within the game he loved so dearly.

The #stanleycupplayoffs have begun, a brutal 2 month slog for 16 contenders to the oldest trophy in professional sport. The cup has evolved over its 126 year history and is unique in many ways, chief among those is it is the only trophy to have players and coaches names engraved in it. For this reason it has grown to its current size; very time a new circular band is added an old one is removed so that its size remains constant. There are many typos on the cup as engravers have made mistakes. The person whose name appears the most on the cup is #montrealcanadiens legend #jeanbeliveau who won the cup 10 times as a player and a further 7 times as a team official. The Canadiens have won the most cups with 24, followed by the #torontomapleleafs with 13 and the #detroitredwings with 11. The original Cup resides in a vault in the #hockeyhalloffame; replicas were made to be awarded and displayed as the original Cup, being made of silver is too fragile now to survive the rough handling it gets, including being held aloft and carried around the rink in the final game, having champagne drunk from it, and each player and coach of the winning team getting custody of the cup for a day, during which they usually take it to their home town, accompanied by #rcmp. #hockey #canada
