Well this was a great day in the history of the Complete Sports media podcast. We welcomed in Jim Hughson an icon in Canadian sports broadcasting. He has been the lead play by play man for Hockey Night in Canada since 2009. He has been the by play play voice for the Vancouver Canucks, Toronto Maple Leafs, Toronto Blue Jays and the Montreal Expos. Jim is in the Hockey Hall of Fame for his broadcasting prowess and has won numerous other awards. We were able to connect with him just before he heads to Toronto to be the lead voice for the NHL playoffs. He will start by covering both the Toronto Vs Columbus and the Montreal vs Pittsburgh play in series. This year with the Covid 19 Pandemic shutting down the league and canceling the rest of the regular season we are in unprecedented times. With the NHL poised to resume with a 24 team playoff in two bubble cities in Toronto and Edmonton we are on the verge of a memorable summer of hockey! We were able to look ahead a bit to the tournament and talk about the uniqueness and improvisation that Jim and his broadcast team will have to face.
We also spoke at length about Jim and his life. It was one of my favorite hours in my life and can't wait to share it with you. Jim is going to go down as one of the best broadcasters to ever live and we were honoured to have him join us today! I hope that you enjoy it half as much as I did.
Take Care,
All the best,
Love yah,
Bye for now
