Two Longtime Boston Sports Icons Leave as Celtics and Bruins Pursue Championships

In recent times, the Boston Celtics and Bruins have experienced tremendous success on both the court and ice. However, this joyful moment is tempered by the fact that they are also saying goodbye to two long-time play-by-play announcers – Mike Gorman and Jack Edwards.

Gorman has been calling Celtics games for an incredible 43 years, while Edwards has been the voice of the Bruins since 2005. Both announcers have become beloved members of their respective franchises, and their departure marks a significant moment in their histories.

As the teams prepare for the playoffs starting this weekend, they are taking time to reflect on the contributions of these iconic broadcasters. Joining Radio Boston to discuss this pivotal moment are Abby Chin, Celtics reporter for NBC Sports Boston, and Kevin Paul DuPont, Boston Globe senior staff writer and columnist who covers the Bruins.

This segment was aired on April 19, 2024, capturing a momentous occasion for both teams as they navigate this transition period while honoring the legacies of these legendary announcers.
