He has passed on today, thought this could make a good thread.
If a kid could fix my YouTube link, that would be great.

My all-time favourite:
"Greg Adams! Greg Adams!"
Second all-time has to be Brown to Bure... "Yeeeaaahh!!! He scores!!!"

I tried to find a Jim Robson call on the "the save" but the only YouTube clip I could find of it I don't think was Jim doing the call.

On the bright side you figured out embedding YT clips.

The call he made each and every night, it meant a lot to so many people sitting by their radios.
"A special hello to hospital patients and shut-ins, the pensioners, the blind, all the people who don't get out to games but enjoy the hockey broadcasts..."
Legend.

RIP Mr. Jim Robson. The GOAT!
My fave call would be the Gus Adams! Gus Adams!

Some forget that Robson had the call for HNIC for a time.
The Islanders first Cup.
Start in at 130 for the goal.
