In this Wednesday, May 29, 2019, photo, NBC hockey broadcaster Mike Emrick poses for a photo while
preparing to call Game 2 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup Final between the St. Louis Blues and the Boston
Bruins in Boston. At 72, still calling games on the NHL’s biggest stage, Emrick is in his prime and
showing no signs of slowing down and stepping away from broadcasting the fastest game on ice. “I really
wanted to do it from the time I saw my first game, but a lot of people really want to do something and
they don’t get to,” Emrick said. “When you have a job like that, you’re never working the rest of your
life. So it’s been 46 years. I don’t know when it’ll end. God only knows.”
