The Voice Of Hockey, Bob Cole, Has Passed Away

There are 2 things synonymous with hockey in this country:

1. Saturday Nights
2. The man’s voice who made the call, Bob Cole

News dropped yesterday afternoon that the long time announcer had passed away at the age of 90 and, man, hockey will never be the same:

And, of course, the last time a Canadian team won the Stanley Cup? It was Bob Cole who made the call:

RIP, Bobby.
