When I was getting into Hockey, this guy was one of the voices I enjoyed the most. His enthusiasm for the sport and the way he'd make a call we're absolutely infectious to a new fan.
It’s hard to put into words how amazing it is that every Sabres fan has memories of listening to RJ as a kid. That’s something truly special, Buffalo has been so lucky to listen to him all those years.
I’m glad he was able to enjoy a full year of retirement with his family, the man worked nearly his entire life. We’ll never see (or hear) another like him.
