52 Things I Love About You Deck Of Cards Template

It’s abstraction up to be a alley cruise abounding of milestones for the Florida Panthers, who accept jumped the aboriginal hurdle on their accepted five-game beat with a 5-4 win aftermost night in Nashville. Mason Marchment netted his aboriginal National Hockey League ambition on a night aback Radko Gudas was skating in his 500th NHL game, one bold afterwards Aleksander Barkov played his 500th game! Keith Yandle is accepted to comedy in career bold cardinal 1,000 on Sunday at Carolina as well. Huge congratulations are in adjustment to anniversary of them!

Milestones like these are never to be taken lightly.  As far as I’m concerned, one of the greatest parts, and honors, of actuality a anchorperson is actuality able to see, on a circadian basis, the adherence to the adeptness that able hockey players have.  The absorption to detail, adeptness and alertness to comedy through assured bumps and bruises, and the backbone that’s appropriate by any amateur to ability the accomplished levels is article that we, as admirers of the game, accept to appreciate.

That said, I’ve been asked abounding times what my admired allotment of calling hockey amateur is.  There are a TON of things I adulation about the job, but usually the aboriginal affair I anticipate of is actuality able to alarm a player’s aboriginal NHL goal.  To alarm it a appropriate accident is an understatement, and behindhand of the alley a amateur took to ability the accomplished level, there’s aloof article about the celebration, the player’s smile, and their facial announcement that exhibits a snapshot of a lifetime of assignment that led up to that acclaimed moment.

In Marchment’s case, you had to feel that aboriginal ambition advancing (I alleged it on Territory Allocution this week!).  He had assists in three beeline games- on some huge goals, nonetheless- and was allowance accomplish scoring adventitious afterwards scoring chance.  He’s authoritative a big appulse for the Panthers over the aftermost week, and is proving to be a key allotment of one of the league’s centermost lineups.

Now, it’s that time again… Time for your questions!

 #DearDoug This is what I charge to know. What do you do if you lose your voice? Do you acquire all the hockey players and their number, in added words, can you alarm a bold if the players name was not on the jersey?

A two-parter!  I’ll alpha with allotment one… the accident the articulation part!  Aboriginal of all, hopefully I don’t lose my voice!  However, accepting done this professionally for 13 years, it has absolutely happened.  That said, I’ve never absent a bold (Knock on wood).

Two examples: during the ’11-12 season, I was alive for the American Hockey League’s Lake Erie Monsters, and I absent my voice.  I would say my articulate accommodation was about 25%.  With advice from throat drops, tea, auto juice, and about every age-old home antidote possible, I was able to at atomic accomplish it accessible to allocution for a abounding game.  I articulate awful, and it was absolutely aching to talk, but I couldn’t absence a game.

The best acute archetype of accepting to “play through pain” would accept been as a 23-year-old during the ’08-09 ECHL division aback I was broadcasting for the Idaho Steelheads.  Prior to bold one of a three-games-in-three-nights alley cruise adjoin the Stockton Thunder, I developed a abhorrent abscessed throat, and as the weekend progressed, I acquainted aloof horrible.  Regardless, I battled through the three amateur solo, hosting my own pre-game, intermissions, and post-game shows in accession to calling the amateur themselves.  I couldn’t get abundant backbone abaft my voice, and knew that article aloof didn’t feel right.

As anon as we alternate to Boise, I went beeline to a 24-hour dispensary to get the lowdown.  That was aback I abstruse that I had aloof alleged three amateur in three nights with… address and strep throat!  That was not fun, to say the least!  And these adventures are why my laptop bag that I backpack with me to every bold additionally contains what’s basically a biking pharmacy, aloof in case.  Again, beating on wood, I’ve never absent a bold that I was appointed to broadcast.

And allotment two: fortunately, I’ve consistently had a appealing acceptable apperception for canonizing jersey numbers and actuality able to accessory them with names.  The aboriginal brace seasons of hockey annual I did was on my campus station, 88.9 WMXM, aback I was a apprentice at Lake Forest College in Illinois.  I’m not abiding there was a aggregation that wore names on their backs; maybe that’s what helped me advance the skill.  Anybody has their altered systems of anecdotic players, and I’ve consistently been a afterwards agenda guy.  Since I aboriginal started in the ECHL, I’ve consistently taken the advanced area of the bold notes- the folio with one team’s agenda on the appropriate and the added aggregation on the left- bankrupt it angular in half, and off I go.

#deardoug accept you anytime had a players name you couldn’t pronounce? How do you again get the advice for the actual way to accent their name?

There accept been some difficult ones over the years, afterwards question!  If I run into a tougher one, I usually beam at it for an added brace account and say it a agglomeration of times, and I’m usually fine.  I bethink the aboriginal time I saw Andreas Athanasiou comedy in the AHL as a affiliate of the Grand Rapids Griffins… and they put him on a band with Andrej Nestrasil.  “Nestrasil-to-Athanasiou” is a affirmation at first, but afterwards a brace shifts, it absolutely wasn’t too bad!

The best means to get a able accentuation are as follows: allurement the amateur anon is the best, by far.  If we don’t accept time to ask the player- for example, if he’s alleged up and doesn’t access until anon afore bold time- our outstanding accessible relations department, or the added team’s anchorperson if it’s an opposing player, are the go-to sources.  Another advantage that’s become more popular: cull up a YouTube highlight from the player’s AHL or above inferior career, and accept to how the anchorperson said it.  Usually, at atomic one of those options will be accessible afore a game!

What are your top 3 resturants/meals aback on the alley in NHL cities?

Narrowing it bottomward to a top three is difficult, but this is a abundant question.  Some alone cities accept such abundant dining options that allotment a top three in one burghal can be tough; like Chicago, for example, which I accept to be the best all-embracing restaurant burghal in the country.

Number one, for me, is what I accede to be the best aliment in the world, though: In-N-Out Burger.  Yep, if I had one meal larboard on Earth, that’s what I’d want.  Fortunately, six Western Conference markets accept In-N-Out, so I’m able to go appealing generally throughout the season.

After In-N-Out Burger, the abutting atom would go to Sauce On The Side, a bounded St. Louis alternation of calzone establishments.  They accept a abounding agenda of calzones, with a account appropriate calzone and a all-inclusive arrangement of acceptable calzones, and some absolutely outside-the-box calzones.  They alike accept ambrosia calzones!  Anniversary calzone comes with a altered blazon of “Sauce On The Side”, appropriately the name.  I’ve recommended this abode for years, and if anyone is casual through St. Louis, you accept to go!  I apparent it on #BaseballTrip15; my acquaintance Adrian Denny (Voice of the AHL’s RoadRunners) were abnormality about Downtown St. Louis afore a Cardinals bold on July 4th, 2015, and stumbled aloft it.

The third atom will go to Dinosaur BBQ; they accept locations throughout New York and New Jersey, so I’m able to go in Buffalo and Newark.  I’ve had a lot of BBQ in my time, and I’m not abiding I’ve had bigger than Dinosaur.  As a alum apprentice at Syracuse, I was able to go to the aboriginal Syracuse location, and in the AHL, I was able to appointment the Rochester area (Which I accede my admired one).

Honorable mentions, partially because there are several eateries area I adulation these specific items: assorted Chicago Italian Beef Sandwich establishments, and assorted cheesesteak shops in Philly.

#DearDoug What is your best big-ticket sports trading card, your oldest agenda and what is your admired card?

I adulation talking sports cards!  I’ll breach my acknowledgment into the three categories below:

-My best big-ticket agenda is a 1979-80 Topps Wayne Gretzky amateur card.  I’m absolutely alive on piecing calm the abounding timeline of Gretzky abject Topps cards.  Needless to say, it’s additionally one of my admired cards, but two others stick out…

-My admired agenda is a tie.  One of the best genitalia of accession cards is canonizing the adventure surrounding aback and area a agenda was obtained, whether it was purchased as a distinct or pulled from a pack, and both cards complex actuality were acquired on fun trips that my dad and I took to the National Sports Collectors Convention aback in the ‘90’s.  One is the agenda of my youth, and what I still accede to be one of the best iconic cards in the history of the hobby, the 1989 Upper Deck Ken Griffey Jr. amateur card.  I’d alike altercate that it’s one of the best apparent cards in history; a lot of bodies who don’t aggregate cards can account that card!  The added is the 1989 Score Barry Sanders amateur card.  I’m a constant Lions fan, so that agenda was consistently one of the centerpieces of my collection.  Plus, those blooming ’89 Score borders chipped absolutely easily, and they were actual boxy cards to acquisition in abundant shape!  Both cards accept stood the analysis of time for me, and for the accession world, and both players are legends.

-Regarding my oldest card, I’ll beginning it by adage that a ambition of abundance in the abutting year or so is to aces up some best cards that I’ve had my eye on.  I adulation the designs of 1958 and 1959 Topps baseball, so I’d adulation to get a few singles from those sets.  I’m eyeballing a few Sandy Koufax and Al Kaline cards, as able-bodied as the ‘59 Topps George “Sparky” Anderson amateur card.  I additionally adulation 1951-52 Parkhurst hockey, and would like to aces up a few of them; alike aloof commons.  That said, my oldest cards are my 1964-65 Topps Roger Crozier amateur agenda and my 1965 Topps Denny McLain amateur card.  Crozier was the Calder Trophy champ as the amateur of the year in 1965, and has the attenuate acumen of acceptable a Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP admitting not acceptable the Stanley Cup in 1966.  The ’64-65 Topps hockey set was fabricated in the “Tall Boy” style.  McLain was a Tiger, allotment of the iconic 1968 Apple Series team, additional I feel appealing assured in adage that he’ll go bottomward as the aftermost 30-game champ in MLB history.  His ’65 Topps is a absolutely air-conditioned agenda of a guy who has a different atom in baseball belief as a avant-garde 30-game winner.

As always, acknowledgment anybody for the abundant questions!  If you didn’t see yours, it may arise in a approaching edition!
