The Vin Scully of Hockey. A class act on and off the ice. Two fine gentlemen who were both the best at what they did and never upstaged the game. We were lucky to hear them in our lifetime. Thanks Doc. Best Wishes. It was truly our pleasure.
And Howard Cosell of NFL play-by-play.
Doc, Vin and Ernie Harwell.
He's so iconic sad to see him retire but it is what it is. It's gonna be hard to find someone to replace his energy. Its gonna be weird to not hear his voice when i watch. Best of luck in retirement.
We need Gary Thorne back. He's the only one IMO that comes close to the Doc.
Who is cutting onions in here?
I don’t know but they are cutting a lot of onions 🧅
😭😭😭 I’m not crying you are
Me
Faks I got a lil teary eyed
@@Lilsnobooty420 I was crying a lot I watched NBC a lot and love ‘Doc’ but now he is retiring so I’m really sad
A sad day for hockey fans... Doc has been a big reason as to why I watch hockey and am such a fan, a fantastic announcer and person. I can't say how lucky us Bruins fans were to have him for every playoff series during our run last year. Hopefully I can get to meet him someday as he's been a hero for the game. Enjoy your retirement Doc!
Same here thanks for 50 years DOC
Ranger fan here absolutely agree it’s hard to not tear up during this many devoted career. Doc IS A LEGEND!!!!
When he says, “your hockey friend, Doc” 😢
He’s an inspiration. A one of a kind. A true gentleman. The game isn’t the same without your good sir.
Thanks for the vocab and all the enthusiasm. Legendary, please keep writing these. Cheers to the editor of these clips too
Doc will always be the man. We love you in Canada more than our own broadcast!
Thanks, Doc.
NHL on NBC Sports won’t be the same without him. Thanks, Doc!
He shoots, HE SCOOOOOOORRRRRREEESSSS!!!!!!!
If I become an announcer this will be my icon in this sport
😔
“On the breakaway, he shoots , HE SCORES!!!!!!
“BONINO... SCORES!!!! IT’S OVER!!!!!”
Hits the post with the shoooot!!!
THANK YOU DOC
50 years of Hockey
One of the greatest hockey announcers of all time!
first 3 words of 3rd line r wrong everything else is great
One of the ? The.
Once I heard his voice, the electricity of the game was sensational. In the middle of the chaos in front of the net my favorites were - "What a sport!", "I DO love this game". I live in Hershey, PA now and know Doc has roots here with the Bears. But, his heart was with the game and hockey really is one of the last highly competitive and pure sports left. Doc was a huge part of defining it on TV for us. Thanks Doc. And... NBC, you have assembled one of the best line ups in sports with your NHL Coverage. Hope you have the courage to bring Mike Milbury back.
Being a Devils fan and having Doc as our announcer was the best. He called every play with vigor for both teams. Every game was like a national broadcast without favoritism. Devils were blessed to have him.
To the greatest announcer in any American League, words cannot express our gratitude to you for all you have done and said in the course of your career. Your words are truly poetry, painting a tapestry that ebbs and flows in perfect motion through the flow of the game. You will be missed more than we can express. Best wishes in all that you do in retirement. Your calls will live on forever ❤️.
He didn't just bring great play-by-play and his unique voice, he brought an intelligence to the broadcast unlike any other.
So glad I got to hear him call the Caps Stanley Cup victory in 2018! Wishing you all the best Doc! Enjoy retirement!!!
Thank you for your class, knowledge, and voice. Thank you for being a part of my life.
I ended up here as the Final is starting today and it just won't be the same without this man.
Thank You For All the years! It was an honor to produce off Mike with Mike Emrick! Enjoy Mike! Live within each moment Big Love to you Doc, Joyce and pups♥️
still can't believe it. About to go into my freshman year of college.. to study broadcasting. All because of Doc
Wow I’m speechless! Thanks for everything Doc!
“DRIVES one, save made and then REbound, SCOOOOOOOORE!” Best announcer ever. Stay safe, Doc
I thought one of the saddest days for TV was when Johnny Carson retired. This one hurts just as much. What a class act. Thanks for the memories Doc.
Doc is simply the best (though I miss Gary Thorne's voice too). Thanks for making a game I knew nothing about (since I grew up in the South) and for making hockey sound brutally elegant and "sophisticatingly" simple. Your retirement reminds me that my own end is coming sooner than I'd like and I best start doing those things I have spent decades promising to do. Best wishes, Mister Emrick.
Just saw this, and got the chills. I dont think playoff hockey will be the same. You brought an energy like no hockey announcer. That enthusiasm, excitement is what made me watch watch hockey since 2013. Sad to see him go. You will be missed Doc
Thanks Doc !! Here it is I am soon to be a 59 years old man and I am all teary eyed. Thank you Doc !! Only two voices will I ever remember as my voice of the NHL ... YOU and St. Louis own Dan Kelley. Both of you make the hair on my arm stand up when you are calling a game. You are a legend. Thank you Sir !!
god this is so sad, Doc was all i knew for the playoffs, like many others. we love you doc, have a great retirement!
What 34 people gave this a thumbs down? I hope it is simply because you cannot stand him retiring. LEGEND
He deserves to go in the hall of fame
He is in the hall of fame!
@@nickly89 didn't know that, but he does deserve it
Happy retirement Doc, your voice will always be synonymous with hockey to me.
Doc, as a fellow Hoosier I couldn't get 2 minutes into your video without starting to cry. THANK YOU for what you have done for the NHL and along with people like me who has taken up the same profession as you whether it is on TV Radio Online or even writing about sports you have been a TREMENDOUS ASSET! Finally, I don't know if you get back to Ft Wayne or Indianapolis but if you do and I'm at a Fuel or a Komets game and see you the 1st beer is on me as well as a bear hug and a handshake.
Never did I ever think watching him say goodbye would bring tears to my face. Thank You Doc for everything. Thank you for making games fun to watch on tv. Thanks for bringing life and excitement to ever broadcast. Thank you for being the best NHL Broadcaster through the history of the league. Thank you for being a legend and have a happy retirement 🖤💯
Same here. There's no one like Doc.
bob cole, doc, and don cherry all gone within 2 years... end of an era
Nobody with a brain willl miss Don Cherry!
@@dccircuitboyOSU Stfu, he's still an icon
I'm legally blind so I appreciate the beautiful picture Mike Emrick painted with his calls. His enthusiasm is unmatched. All the best in the next chapter Doc!
What a class act! I'll never forget his call of my beloved St. Louis Blues winning their first Stanley Cup. Doc makes hockey understandable to the casual fan and his knowledge of the game is unsurpassed. We will miss you Doc!
I would do Anything to be you doc !!!! Not just a voice not just a personality a LIVING SYMBOL of hockey!!
Thanks for over 25 years of memories doc.
You will surly be missed and never replaced.
Stay safe.
(Im going to go cry now)
Simply the best!! As a Devils fan, you were our announcer for years and as much part of the game as the team. Stay well and enjoy.
Looking very much forward to those essays to come. Thanks for some great memories.
On behalf of all NHL fans everywhere, Doc, may God bless and keep you, and thanks for allowing us to hear your voice for all these years.
“Drops it to Richards......Across to Kane, HE SCORES!!!”
-Doc Emerick
I’ll never forget that line! Thank You Doc for all the memories with the Hawks!
Thank You Doc for the amazing time. You will be unforgettable part of my journey with watching professional ice hockey. Wish You all the best, rest, live long and enjoy well deserved pension. Though, I truly regret never hearing Your comment again. 😢😢😢 Big credits to You - You deserved for the most noble place in the ice hockey history and even among such stars like Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Bobby Orr You don’t need to feel ashamed at all.
The best announcer in all of sports
Will miss you😭
Thank you for making so many games so memorable!!!!!!
he recently showed me the sport which I love when the lightning won the cup last season his voice just was great and my parents and i watched this sport thanks doc even though I had a short time with you, you inspirerd me to love hockey.
Thank you Doc, you are the reason hockey is exciting as it is and why I love to watch. I grew up to your voice with Chico at the Pru and hockey will never be the same. You will be greatly and genuinely missed.
-Love, your hockey friend😢💔
Very few captivated the game as well as Doc. I always enjoyed his calls... Happy Retirement, Doc. You deserve nothing but the best.
Thanks for everything you've contributed to this wonderful game. You will be forever remembered.
I remember when I first head this "Doc" guy was going to be the voice of the national broadcast for the NHL, I was like who is this guy? I want Gary Thorne, who I came into the game watching on ESPN. I never imagined Mike Emrick would become my fave. We'll miss you, Doc!
Hockey will never be the same without the great doc
One of the greatest sports announcers ever! Enjoy your retirement, Doc!
I'm a Habs fan in Ontario...and Doc and Bob Cole are my 2 favourite game callers of all-time. I can't stand the ones calling games now in Canada. Really makes me miss the days gone by.
Enjoy your retirement Doc, be well friend.
The day I would never see come has happened. Watching NHL and Stanley Cup Playoff games on TV will never be the same, but all I can is thank you for the memories and happy retirement.
Mr. Emrick, Sir... rangers/lightning fan here----I would watch a hockey game sometimes ONLY because YOU called it. Thank you for the years and enjoy your retirement.
Love you, Doc! Hockey won't be the same without you. Stay safe, stay well, and enjoy your retirement!
Simply....THE BEST 🏒
Thank you Doc! Great memories you’ve left me with. You left out one other hockey tradition that’s right along side the hand shake, your voice calling a game. GOAT.
Thanks Doc! You have been that constant voice my entire life...I have watched Bruins hockey since I was a little kid and am now almost 50. Thanks for all of the years and your enthusiasm for each and every game! Happy retirement!♥️
All my life you’ve been the voice of hockey for me. Bitter sweet farewell and thanks for all the childhood memories that I was able to share with my son’s. All the best doc.
As a hockey fan thank you Doc, your commentary made it that much better to watch , and as a
Dallas Stars fan, I wish I could of heard you one more time saying: the Dallas Stars have won Stanley Cup.
Thank you for the amazing memories Mike Emrick
I sure miss doc! He was one of a kind and a thrill to listen to!
Total class job by Doc. Thank you NBC and Doc!!!!
🏒 is a continent sport showing respect to each other. Unity. NHL is the only one to show that. God bless the NHL. Thanks Doc.
Thanks you Doc Emrick for the amazing 50 years
Doc, you were the undisputed best. A game that you announced was better because you were there. Nothing compares to the pure joy you brought to calling a game. My wife and I will miss you.
I'm not crying your crying 😢. I will miss his Hershey reference during every game. Living near Hershey and being a Bears fan...we always count Doc as one of ours!
Thank you. Legend. Listening to the game will never be the same without your voice and excitement!
This is just an absolute killer to me . I am lost , Lost for words. AS a 46 year old Retired military Veteran. I can and will admit..... I am in ....Tears... Why?? WHY?WHY did he go out now? He was and is By Far the best . He no doubt had a solid 5 years left. I am so lost for words Hockey will never be the same . When I Think of Hockey i immediately think of Him..."FED ONE IN FRONT".... "HIT THE POST WITH THE SHOT "...God I WILL MISS you Doc..I only have 2 regrets I never got to hear you call my flyers winning a cup and I never met you in person . I can only wish I meet you some day ....
Thank you Doc for the lifelong memories!
Love Doc. He'll always be the BEST! Thanks for the memories Mike! This was a very well piece.
Simply put, the finest 5.5 minutes I have spent in years... Thank You, DOC
One of best ever to call a hockey game, God bless You Doc. You will be missed
thank you so much man
The NHL will never be the same without you Doc.
So beautifully done.
OH NOoOooooo! Good Luck Doc! You’ve made the game what is is today. You were the very very best of the best. There will be no other in our hearts or minds when we tink if the best hockey announcer EVER.
One of the Greatest of All and Anytime to EVER do it
Thanks for everything Doc. You are a hockey legend. Good luck.
Class act, always got me hyped during our 2019 run. Can't believe he's done, such an iconic voice. No replacing the amount of energy that he brings. GOAT in my opinion. Good luck with everything doc, and one last time...HENRIQUE, IT'S OVAAAAR
Thank you Doc
You will be Missed and Remembered
Hockey life Forever
I'm going to miss hearing Doc call the games so much. My favorite sports broadcaster. We were so lucky to have you. Thank you Doc.
The BEST play by play announcer in ALL sports! Enjoy your retirement my friend!
No, Doc, we must thank you for so many years of spirited, consistently terrific play-by-play. You're one of the best hockey announcers out there. But, boy oh boy, are we gonna miss hearing your recognizable & comforting voice! Edzo & Pierre will be lost without you 😉. All the best to you, Mr. Emmerich. Thanks again.
Thank you Doc for all of the memories you've narrated over the years, as only you could.
Legend
He really is
A true Class Act! Best wishes Doc..and thank you for all the memories of this great game!
Growing up in Vancouver, we didn't have any NBC sports programming. However, one year during the playoffs, I was in NYC with family. When I tuned in, I was met with Doc's voice for the first time. He had this electricity to his tone that I honestly found kind of annoying at first, but the more I listened the more it grew on me. Eventually, I would even watch NBC games just to listen to his commentary. While these days I still mostly watch Sportsnet and national broadcasts, he will always be one of the greats in my mind. Congrats on your retirement, Doc.
The best play by play guy ever. Thank you Mike.
His voice is so friggin iconic. It was the first hockey announcer voice I ever heard, even before the Canadian announcers. Enjoy retirement, Doc.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! This legend will be missed.
Thanks for the memories doc
What a great video. got me tearing up a little, thank you doc!
Thanks for the memories, Doc.
This guy made hockey watchable
Congratulations Doc on a wonderful career.. Your time giving us fans the most amazing calls and great story telling give us something we weren't worthy to have... Thank you Doc and God Bless on your next journey whatever you decided to do next
dang what is 2020 doing??? he'll always be the voice of hockey. they need to give him a little spot on the cup. best of luck doc to u and ur family! I'm glad i got to hear u call the lightning stanley cup champions.
Thank YOU Doc for ALL your years of calling hockey because I will ALWAYS appreciate it beyond words 😭🏒🙌💚
Just not the same with out him man what a talent
“Threw one in front SCORE!!!!!
Nathan Horton breaks the tie”
Doc there will never be another announcer like you.
Thank you
Doc Emerick is one of the greatest play by play commentators. I really respect him a lot and I will miss hearing his enthusiasm in the Stanley cup playoffs. NBC picks their best play by play commentators with al micheals and doc emerick. Hockey is truly one of the greatest sports ever created. I think American football and hockey are the best sports in the world though
