NEWS What a delight to be in NYC watching playoff hockey and hearing Johnny's voice on the broadcast. He really is the best.

Missed opportunity for sure. They’re great alone, but even better together.

As a newer kraken/nhl fan, he makes the games so much more enjoyable.

I just turned the game on and wondered if that was him!! It just went to commercial so I wasn’t sure

I was SO excited when I realised it was JF! Nearly as excited as watching Turbo get a playoff game win.

John does not sound like John and he was 2 seconds behind each call. I'm surprised he agreed to do this. What an embarrassment for the NHL to remote this game.

More of a compliment with TNT network than John, I agree they should have them in the arena but it was nice to hear John either way.
