Forgive if I spell his name wrong, but Dom Izzo, the local broadcaster, really does a good job with his enthusiasm, energetic, and knowledgeable approach to the game, IMO. He will be bring the same excitement to a 4th quarter blowout as he did in the 1st quarter. I seldom watch hockey on tv but Dom kept me interested last Saturday night to the point where crossing the blue line was like scoring a goal! Looking forward to this years bb tournaments on tv when I can not physically be there...I was a little young at the time, but I remember a similar broadcaster, Jim Adelson, with his vintage quote " 2 rolls and no coffee". It is a tough job with all of the stats, ins and outs of commercials, personal bios, quick wits, and long 4 game sets at times, these and along with some excellent radio broadcasters, are not taken for granted as they make the games a big event--win or lose!
