    I sold Bob a Tie years ago. As soon as he started talking I knew who i was talking with. What a Gem of a Human . RIP.

    When I see hockey on TV with no volume it’s Bobs voice that does the play by play in my head.

    Living down in Dallas in 1986 I installed the big satellite dish. Due to that fact for the next 30 plus years I was able to get HNIC. Needless to say Bob was a big part of my Saturday nights. RIP Bob you were simply the best.

    There have been many notable commentators, but Bob Cole will be the one who seemed to celebrate the amazing plays regardless of which team. Hard to find that today. Rest in Peace.

    The voice that can take me back to my childhood in an instant, back to my basement playing floor hockey on a Saturday night, my dad making popcorn while the voice of Bob Cole echoed through the house. God love ya Bob, the greatest to ever call a hockey game.

    No matter how old I got. Anytime I'm fighting to stay awake and on the verge of falling asleep watching Hockey, it takes me back to being 6-9 years old just trying my hardest to make it to the first intermission to catch Coach's Corner. Sandman won more times than not.
    I'm happy to know he created a everlasting memory for me.

    Growing up in a sh***y household, Bob Cole and Hockey Night in Canada brought comfort and safety. As I was getting older and moving on, any time Bob Cole called a game, that familiar voice always reinforced the love of hockey. An absolute legend, so glad I was around for the majority of his career! Much love Bob, rest easy and thank you so much for all the memories!

  • @captainw.3373

    I heard this voice of the NHL in the USSR when I was a little boy, and in Russia when I became a father myself. And right now my son is asking me, "who is this uncle?" and I say, "this is a great commentator who recently passed away, and this video is in memory of him." Hockey Night in Canada forever!

  • @urbanmusher
    @urbanmusher Před 15 dny +2

    He was the reason I was Glued to Listen to his Voice for decades
    -> since colour TV and Bobby Orr started in the NHL.
    I was very young when He made me realize that it was better to listen to him to Feel like I'm right There, than to actually be there Live and miss out on his Play-by-Play, just wow!
    I never wanted to go, no regrets...
    Only my Sincere Thanks for creating my Joy to follow the games in the Sport that I loved.
    I'm Content knowing that-> He knew-> How much we admired him for his Talent and Treasured him in our Hearts 💕

    As a Biggest Poor Hearted Senators fan, REST IN PEACE, still remember the 2007 call for the ottawa senators when Alfredsson's scored OT winner " Shot By The Hot Guy " my prayers for you're whole family and friends and relatives, and all the fans who witnessed the calls, you are men of the hour, thanks for the Alfredsson's Senators goal call, that was iconic and Memorable in Senators history of all time

    How Bob Cole called a hockey game reminds me of Pat Summerall. Both had an old school way of calling the games they broadcasted. Nothing fancy, just straight and to the point unlike a lot of today’s announcers for the big four professional sports which are either vanilla or try way too hard.
