The legendary play-by-play man may still do some video essays, but he’s stepping away from hockey after 50 years.
Legendary broadcaster Doc Emrick is officially hanging up the microphone. The longtime lead of NBC Sports’ hockey coverage is retiring after decades of calling play-by-play for multiple sports, including a 50-year career in hockey. NBC Sports announced Emrick’s decision on Monday, sharing a video farewell from Emrick where he covered some of his favorite moments and noted that, though he’s done broadcasting for NBC, he may occasionally pen some video essays in his retirement.
