The Owner's Box, Ep. 18.

NESN'S Jack Edwards.

Miss the Boston Bruins? So does Jack Edwards, for a good reason. He's the play-by-play "voice" of the Bruins for their telecasts on NESN. He stopped by The Owner's Box to offer his take on what may happen to the rest of what was looking like a possible Stanley Cup season for the B's, and suggests that the ongoing coronavirus crisis could have serious ramifications for not just this season, but also beyond for the National Hockey League.

We also talk about Jack's road up the ladder as a broadcaster -- I met him for the first time in the early 1980s when he was a reporter and weekend sports anchor at WJAR-TV, Channel 10 in Providence -- and how a change in philosophy at ESPN, where he later worked, and home delivery of the Boston Globe led to his dream job of calling the action for the Bruins.

On top of all that, Jack gives me a few pointers about how to do play-by-play -- information I can always use in my new role as local announcing mercenary. And we both agree that having knowledgeable analysts at our sides makes a big difference in the quality of the telecast.

It's all here in Episode 18. Enjoy.
