As the Celtics and Bruins gear up for the playoffs this weekend, they are experiencing a bittersweet moment. Both teams have been experiencing success on the court and the ice, but they are also saying goodbye to long-time play-by-play announcers. Mike Gorman, who has been calling Celtics games for 43 years, and Jack Edwards, who has been the voice of the Bruins since 2005, are both exiting the broadcast booth.
This significant moment for both teams is being reflected upon as they look to the future while also honoring the legacies of these iconic announcers. Joining Radio Boston to discuss this transition period are Abby Chin, Celtics reporter for NBC Sports Boston, and Kevin Paul DuPont, Boston Globe senior staff writer and columnist who covers the Bruins.
The departure of Gorman and Edwards marks the end of an era for both teams as they navigate this pivotal moment in their history. This segment was aired on April 19, 2024, capturing this important milestone for both franchises.
