Vladiator 116 Report post Posted May 15, 2009 Just wanted to give the thanks to these guys that they deserve. Awesome play calling and commentating as usual. Gonna miss you guys through the rest of the playoffs. Hope to see you both at the start of the next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake_Marcus 890 Report post Posted May 15, 2009 s***ty Ken and Micky will be missed! Can't wait to hear from them in October, or at the parade if we're lucky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted May 15, 2009 I'll miss having Mick to rage with about s***ty calls, because the neutral Versus and NBC announcers sure as hell won't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jedi 1,865 Report post Posted May 15, 2009 I don't know if I can outright say they're the best in the business, as I am admittedly a bit biased. But I know that each feed I had to watch of a different pair of commentators made me wish desperately to have Ken & Mickey back. ESPECIALLY when listening to the Ducks and Sharks guys on FSN... I still have nightmares... Hats off for a terrific season of calling the Wings for us guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elshupacabra 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2009 (edited) They'll be missed for sure. They sure were refreshing to hear after having to put up with the Versus crew, or even worse yet....Pierre McGuire for a game or two. Thanks Ken & Mickey!

Wing Across The Pond 196 Report post Posted May 15, 2009 the thing thats great about them is that they'll still praise good play for road teams too... not just the Wings... classy as well as brilliant at what they do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KillrBuckeye 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2009 Actually he said, "Are you kidding me?" It may sound like the "S" word, but it wasn't. I'm pretty sure he said "s***tin". My father-in-law first noticed it and called me to laugh about it. I then rewound it at least a dozen times, and also had my wife listen. All 3 of us are pretty convinced that he said "s***tin". I think you can clearly hear the "shh" sound, but Ken is talking at the same time, making it a bit difficult to say for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
