Jack Edwards Gets Excited
3:22

Bruins come back from down 3-0 vs Rags, Jack...

Bruins score twice with the goalie pulled and out comes Jack. Well...he's genuine!

At least you know he loves his team. The wild guys are as fun as puppies with cancer.

Earth to Jack, the final score was NY 4 and Boston 3. Gutsy win by the Rangers and where is Jack with that clip?

A gutsy win is blowing a 3 goal lead halfway through the 3rd period, including 2 goals in the last minute and a half, and barely holding on to a win a shootout?

Seems like a pretty decent accomplishment for an announcer to get excited about. I rather have an announcer who is into the game as opposed to someone dull. It's also nice to know that Jack Edwards realizes he's Bruins fan, unlike a lot of other announcers.

C'mon dude. Teams score twice in the last 90 seconds all the time....

Us hockey fans definitely get that excited when our team does well. The only difference is there's millions of people watching Edwards. There's a lot of talk about players showing emotion so when broadcaster hams it up it should be totally acceptable.

Jack taking his "homerism" to an entirely different level. Gotta love it. Even Brick was excited. Took me a few years to warm up to Jack's style, but he does bring a lot to a telecast. Good stuff!

Don't you have a 4-2 Devils loss to enjoy! Go think about that!

No its not totally acceptable for a broadcaster to act like that he is horrendous to listen to

the flyers broadcast team gets fired up and enjoys the team fighting and scoring, hell they are even homers...

but jack edwards is on another planet of homers he is completely ridiculous, a dork, and impossible to listen to.

Yeah I love the comcast guys they're great they've got a great dynamic going between the three of them as well.

Also Jack Edwards has a point at the end of the video you go to a hockey game to get excited and have fun! However doesn't mean he has to be a massive homer whilst doing it

The Wild play-by-play guy sounds almost exactly like Jack Edwards but without all the theatrics
