"With the point of the dagger at their throats, they rip it out of Toronto's hands and kill the beast!" Chills. Jack Edwards is a legend.
Is he? He’s a hack
the best
Rewatching nesn highlights just as Marchand is named captain, hope jack Edwards never retires
Nah this is probably like one of his only likable calls
He said that off the rip too lol
If Jack Edwards ever leaves NESN/Boston the city will fall to the red coats.
true.... and they're call canadiens >:( GO Jack! Go B's!!!!
Bammonb agreed
Orsillo was fired, anything is possible, that guy is a 🐐
Stfu
I would be so sad. (Im watching a game rn and Lauzon literally just scored as I was writing this comment)
I love how Brickley wants to say something but he can't cause Edwards is the play-by-play
why are you literally every place I go
Jake Berger I love hockey vids lol
lmao same
One of THE greatest calls in the history of sports. It still gives me chills to this day. Go B's.
+turbofanlover Just got chills too! Crazy!
I don't know about all of sports history, but definitely in Bruins history
turbofanlover no its “THE BRUINS KNOCK OUT MONTREAL!!!!!”
Send me a link to a better call than that - any sport
One of the best calls and i'm not even a bruins fan
Jack Edwards is living proof of the old saying, "if you're doing what you love, you'll never work a day in your life". He's far from the best at what he does, but as a Bruins fan, you can't help but like him.
Here to because he retired to remember good times ❤️
If you don't like Jack Edwards, why are you watching this video? I mean, really. Why did you click on a video of a Jack Edwards call if you hate him? I don't understand.
To watch him make a fool of himself again?
John Sweet Your jealousy is amusing.
Id love to call hockey games for a living. I can promise you if I did wouldnt treat the sport like pro wrestling.
John Sweet Then you would be the most boring color commentator in NHL history.
Actually I am. That was a really uncreative insult.
Leaf Fan here! This guys one of the best commentators in hockey, comes up the the weirdest analogies when goals are scored but it's good!
No true leaf fan would say that... Joe Bowen is so much better than this graphic, violent man...
your an idiot. have some humility. its so called "fans" like you are the reason people hate toronto.
Die ik this was 7 years ago and u getting hate for liking him. Or not now cause 7 years is a while but I want to say thank you for not saying our city sucks like some ppl do
He's a jerk.
@@mgraysonhay Strange though it may seem to you, some people just love hockey, and can appreciate good plays and good calls from other teams. A TRUE Leafs fan loves hockey. I've no idea what YOUR deal is.
I wish more announcers showed this type of enthusiasm. I would much rather listen to a homer who's excited, than a boring dull neutral broadcaster.
hahahaha there was one game I cannot remember when it was but I believe it was a playoff game and he was imitating people who nag on him after he gave an enthusiastic commentary and was like oh he's such a homer-get over it! lmfao still so funny I love jack Edwards, I hope he never leaves, most other commentators are boring and I notice don't even say the correct players when depicting the game or at least for the bruins that is, its annoying.
you coldnt not show enthusiasm being an announcer for THAT game.
As much as I despise the Bruins, I've always enjoyed Edwards' commentaries.That's some real passion and enthusiasm right there, can't deny that.
I can see why you hate the Bruins! :)
No one will ever be a bigger bruins fan than Jack Edwards
The best part of this is Brickley's expression.
He can hide his excitement but he can't hide that smile!!
also, Jack is fucking hilarious. Obviously, if you're not a Bruins fan you're not going to like him, but if he were your teams announcer, you'd LOVE him. He's the only hockey announcer left that actually gets genuinely excited about the game. Not only Bruins goals, but the opposing team's goals as well. If you don't beleive me, just watch highlights of Game 7 vs. Toronto. He said "the Toronto Maple Leafs are running the bruins out if their own building", because they were. And when the bruins won it in OT he freaked out, just like every other bruins fan. So hate him all you want, but don't spew idiotic falsehoods that you cannot back up. He gets excited about every exciting hit, pass, goal, save, by ANY team because he loves the game of hockey.
""Oh he's such a homah! He's such a homah!" Get over it! You go to hockey games to get excited." - Jack Edwards
Bruins games wouldn't be the same without jack
Rick Jeannerette gets excited. He rarely makes a jackass of himself like Edwards does. RJ does go overboard with hits sometimes, but purely volume based. Jack Edwards just makes a fool out of himself with his hyperboles and similes
Ikr I wish he could commentate nesn and nbc NHL games with doc emrick that would've been cool
Patsfan 28 Absolutely not. Homers don't have a place on national broadcasting. Doc gets equally excited for both teams. That's what makes him good for everyone. He gets excited for your team like Edwards does but gets just as excited for the other team so their fans are happy. No local broadcasting anchor should be part of the national broadcasting team
I don't know why so many people hate on him. I personally love him. Some people just don't realize that he's a local commentator, meaning he's focused on the Bruins. He's just a fan and for some reason, people hate him for it. Just doesn't make sense to me
+Jurassic Bruin because he so bias toward other teams while other commentators are not.
+Jurassic Bruin Its not completely Jack Edwards himself. It's NESN and the Bruins organization. I understand being bias, because I work for a local sports network and our commentators are bias, but not as much as Edwards. Its one thing be be bias, but its another thing to have a lack of respect for the opponent. My favorite Play by Play commentator is Jim Hughson.
+macracer49 there's a difference between being biased and being a homer. and Jack's a homer. but he's our homer. 😊
Gerald someone who understands! Thank you!
Agreed, every team has an play by play guy like Jack who knows who is audience is, they are fans of the home team. The thing is, not a lot of those guys are on TV anymore, a lot of the "homer" announcers are on radio. I'm a die hard Leafs fan who obviously has some sort of Stockholm syndrome or I am a saddist to even watch this video let alone defend the guy making the call, that aside our "homer" announcer is Joe Bowen and he is the absolute best because he's a die hard fan that knows his audience is too. I'm sure if he was still on TV people would say the same. We all have em, we love em, don't deny it.
I don't understand why Jack is getting a lot of hate. He commentates Bruins games for a living, so obviously he gets excited when the Bruins win, especially with an emotional victory like this. He is what Boston fans want to hear, someone who gets excited when the B's score and has passion for the team
THANK YOU
I am by no means a Bruins fan. But you gotta love that passion.
+Leezy1399 I agree. I'm an Avs fan, but I love that passion. Plus it was Game 7 in OT?! You can't expect anything less
Still gives me goosebumps man! Boston, the comback city!
Edit: 9 years later, still my favorite call of an OT win!
My favorite part is that when hes done screaming he just goes right back to work reading stats and messages off the screens in front of him like its just another goal
This gives me chills, even as a Leafs fan. What a job by Edwards.
How did you hear Bowen?
As a Canucks fan I hate the bruins, but I love the passion of Jack Edwards. His passion and love of hockey is awesome
I watched this more than 10 times
I'm not a bruins fan but I can't resist how funny jack is
"'OH HE'S SUCH A HOMAH! HE'S SUCH A HOMAH!' Get over it! You go to a hockey game to get excited!" - Jack Edwards
Never change, Jack.
He’s got to be one of the best
I love Jack edwards when he’s calling games but when he’s not he’s so biased and annoying but I love him as a play by play great enthusiasm and knows the game
You can be a Bruins fan, but no one will ever be a bigger Bruins fan than Jack Edwards
Jack Edwards is friggin awesome, love listening to him call the bruins games.... to actually see his reaction on camera is priceless!! Your the best Jack, dont ever change!!!! GO BRUINS!!!!!!
Enjoy your retirement, Mr. Edwards!! My favorite game in Bruins playoff history.
Greatest sporting event I’ve ever witnessed. I sat ice level. Rajon Rondo was in the first row, and I was right behind him. He left after Toronto scored their fourth goal…woops! Talk about epic… Gives me chills to this day. BERGERON!!
peter , one guy was saying he was at the celtics game last yr when Tatum got the layup to beat Brooklyn at the buzzer to win game. He said it was by far the loudest he'd ever heard the building in his life. U think this goal was louder? I'd think so
I’m sure the place must’ve exploded when Tatum hit that layup in the last second against Brooklyn, but that game seven against Toronto was absolutely epic! Down three goals with 10 minutes left. I was personally rallying my whole section. Nathan Horton scored with about 10 minutes left. Then, Milan Lucic scored with about a minute and a half left…and then Patrice to tie it with about 40 seconds left It was surreal! We actually almost won it in the final seconds of regulation, but that only delayed the inevitable… Bergeron in overtime! The place went absolutely bonkers. That game tying goal though with 41 seconds left was the loudest I’ve ever heard that stadium.
One of the best calls ever
The most respectable homer of all time
Jack you are awesome
I never thought Fred Cusick could ever be replaced for his love & passion for the Bruins - Jack Edwards is here!
Gtyn J Don't you dare compare Edwards to the greatest Bruins announcer ever.
Love the energy Edwards has. Wish every announcer had this much enthusiasm
He's just a tall gangly geek with the best job in the world. He gets paid to nerd out over his team, which it seems to me he'd be doing anyway, and he has all kinds of fun doing it
One of the best calls of all time!
Both a friend and I had independent recollections of this call being "slays the beast." I was stunned to see that the actual Edwards call was "kills the beast." Memory is weird.
Brick sees the camera's on them and starts fixing himself the whole time hahahaha
He's such a fuckin' homer and I LOVE IT
Jack Edwards is great. You have to love a guy who enjoys his job. Outstanding call and way to think on your feet and express a literate statement under the circumstances.
I still get goosebumps watching that goal from Bergeron.
Love this man!
love to see that thats great to se the passion
Passion and heart. Yes, he’s disrespectful towards other teams and needs to change that, but the passion, the heart, that’s what you want in a commentator. You don’t want some dry ass commentary.
A great call. He does what only a few announcers do. Even as a fan himself, he shouts about the goal for a few seconds but then lets you just listen to the roar of the crowd. Love that. Listen to announcers in any sport and when something great happens, they talk and talk as the crowd roars. Great moment, great call.
Priceless
Edwards is a boss legend!!
Bowen is too.
I could never talk the quickly, that clearly and the smoothly all in one go.
Love Jack and Brick! Can't wait for the season!
Every city should have a commentator like Edwards the man is pure entertainment
As a Bruins fan, I just wish we could have Foley and Edwards side by side in the booth for this whole series. Two of the very best guys in the business.
Last nights game, and this clip will go down in Bruins history forever
You won't find a guy that loves hockey and appreciates the game more than Jack Edwards. Every announcer roots for their home team. You narrate their every move for 80+ games a year -- they are your life. Jack is no exception. But he is as balanced, if not more so, than any announcer -- he shows appreciation for the skill, character, hard work and grit of EVERY player, not just those with the spoked B. And he does so more than the average announcer. People conflate his enthusiasm for homerism.
Good team good series and good luck in the future!
This video is absolutely fantastic.
Still gives me goosebumps
There's only one way to rock! Jack Edwards Style!!!!!!
This guy is a beauty.
I am a Leafs fan. This brings back old wounds.. BUT
Noone in NHL calls the goals like Jack Edwards. Even if we had scored, he would sound more excited than Leafs' crew.
Hoping to see him on national broadcast some day.
God I love Jack Edwards - Love it win he is announcing he makes the game so exciting! He is a HUGE Bruins Fan if you couldn't tell by the video - LOVE IT
He's gotta be the most craziest Play by Play guy since Gus Johnson
It's called having perspective. I recognize how enormous a moment this was for Boston. I can imagine how we'd feel as Leafs fans had we been the team to make the comeback. And I appreciate a broadcaster like Jack, who doesn't speak in tired cliches, but in a creative and passionate dialogue.
Love this guy.
I like Edwards...He's got the enthusiasm that many other play-by-play guys lack.
I'm a proud NH person I watched Jack Edwards do the UNH Hockey Games he used to work for ESPN and look where he is now BOSTON BRUINS BABY!!
Andy Brickley is the most chill dude in the building.
So awesome. I love it
How the hell have I never seen this??
I love Jack. His unbridled enthusiasm is awesome. I know a lot of people hate him, but he's a homer. He's supposed to love Boston...and he's good at it.
An absolute miracle. Bergeron tied the game and won the game.
I'm gonna miss Jack.
I don't care what anybody says. Jack Edwards brings emotion, passion and excitement to the game like no other announcer in sports. He's fucking awesome.
There's only 1 Jack Edwards. Legend.
It's crazy how calm he looks while doing it too, I know he is obviously animated in this clip but oddly calm at the same time
Don't ever change Jack. Brilliant.
This reaction was amazing.
Ohhhhhhhhhhh, how I could not agree more! Love Jack & Brick! They're the men! I love Jack's enthusiasm, he's nuts, & I love it! And you're 100% on, he's respectful of EVERYONE, no matter what!
Hell no!!! And Im a Bruin fan living in toronto...those long sad faces have made my every day this week!!! Bruins 4 ever!!!!
There might not be a single person in the world who loves his job as much as Jack Edwards does
Go bruins!!!
Jack Edwards knows how to call good games like this one!!! Go B's!! #BostonBruins
That was awesome.
you know what. you my friend are spot on that! I'm a Hawks fan so I listen to Pat Foley & Edzo but IMO Foley is one of the least biased announcers in the NHL. I like how intense Edwards gets and the emotion and intensity he shows when announcing.
I visited Toronto from Boston and the bruins happened to be playing the leafs and I saw jack Edwards at a cafe and he was such s nice guy
what a guy! i love how andy and jack are commentators yet they celebrate like fans when B's score
The best part is that Brick isn't even phased by Jack at all...gotta love them both
Absolutely stunning. Even as a Leaf fan, that was a really cool sound bite.
Great commentary Jack
my favorite moment in boston sports history
Never change jack
One of beat moments in Boston sports.
God I love him so much
by far the best announcer in the league
I'm a Leafs fan and I still love this
Omg i love jack
Add this to: Best of Jack Edwards vid!!!
He's enthusiastic, he's actually quite knowledgeable about the game, and he's good at calling the play as it happens.
If he wasn't over exaggerating everything (e.g. Cooke-Sirhan comparison and yelling "GET UP" at Hamrlik), he'd be one of the best in the business...and Brick's extremely good on color.
AWESOME is the only word to describe it.
Love him
Jack Edwards is the man. You all can hate on him as much as you want, but as a Bruins fan he makes the game soooo much more entertaining.
I swear, his commentary makes me love the Bruins more and more
Got to love Jack Edwards
I understand that people hate how he can be super biased. But as you can see .... a true Bruins fan calls the games. How can you not appreciate that?
