Talented shoes to fill, but looking forward to getting the call Friday night. I'm an old dog, but like a puppy, I respond well to positive reinforcement and treats. Be kind to me Twitter...🤣🤣🤣 Looking forward to seeing Alan Fuehring and maybe even @JChaimo again.

Honored to be filling in for Ryan Smith as the Springfield Thunderbirds host Bridgeport Islanders at 7:05 on NewsRadio 560/98.9 FM WHYN. First AHL call since my time ended in Bingo in 2017. Spent many nights in this great rink as a broadcaster, but as a fan, saw the Calder Cup hoisted here back in 1991.

Though my last season in the AHL was his first, Alan Fuehring impressed me back then. Great to see him tonight a few years later, each of us with a few NHL games under our belts...I've seen better days, but the best is still to come for this young man. Fulltime NHL voice soon!

Well, last Friday it was AHL fill-in duty for me in a 7-6 OT affair. Tonight, I'm back home at my usual gig and this happened. Cornell Women's Ice Hockey prevails in a crazy one over St. Lawrence Women's Hockey...in regulation. 😎

I didn’t know this incredible human existed until now… I feel as if I’ve missed out on so much electricity. The talent… the passion… the story telling Paul Allen, Minnesota Viking PxP, is FANTASTIC.

Nice to be on recall if only for a little while. Sunday's remix from Buffalo's 7-4 win over the Caps. #SoundCloud on.soundcloud.com/QGRcR

Final call of my current fill-in stint with the Caps tonight in LA. Great vantage point from Crypto.com Arena. Can't sleep? Join Ken Sabourin and me for the call at 10:15 on caps247.com.

Game remix from the 2nd of 4 calls I had while on a 10-day roadtrip with the Washington Capitals last week. Tom Wilson's second of the night early in OT gave the Caps a 3-2 win over Anaheim. soundcloud.com/grady-whittenb…

Not a great start Saturday afternoon in San Jose, but all's well that ends well. Craig Smith and Alex Ovechkin with a pair each in the game remix as the Caps take out the Sharks 8-3. soundcloud.com/grady-whittenb…

Last game remix Monday night from LA as the Caps couldn't finish off the road trip with a "W" as the Kings prevailed 4-2. soundcloud.com/grady-whittenb…

Back to my usual hockey haunt tonight as the ECAC playoffs start for Cornell Men’s Ice Hockey as they host Clarkson Men’s Hockey in the opener of a best-of-3 for the right to move on to Lake Placid next weekend in pursuit of an ECAC Hockey championship.

Admittedly don't watch much RS hockey on ESPN, but my hand is forced in the playoffs. That said, I love Emily Kaplan in working in a tight window with bench interviews. Short to-the-point inquiries give the coaches a chance to expound and affords her a second question. 👏👏👏

Loved @johnforslund on the national radio call as the team that unceremoniously ridded itself of him and the legendary Chuck Kaiton a few years ago was swept out of the playoffs last night. Met both in the infancy of my radio career and they couldn't have been nicer to this PIA.

About the earliest start ever for the Cornell Women's Ice Hockey as they host the Toronto Varsity Blues Lynah Rink in Ithaca. I'll have the call on ESPN+ beginning at 3pm. espn.com/espnplus/playe…

Enjoying my vacation in Brownsville, TX. But as season ticket holder, I'm 1900 miles away from where I'd like to spend the next 2 1/2 hours cheering on the Rochester Knighthawks during their stretch run heater. Fortunately, ESPN+ gives me coverage with Craig Rybczynski on the call!!!
