PROFESSOR Emerick!

PROFESSOR EMRICK: Math, medicine, linguistics — there seems to be nothing Emrick doesn't know and can't fit effortlessly into the call of a game. When the Russian crowd began chanting during the home team's game with the U.S., Emrick quickly said that what they were saying, roughly translated, meant "Go get the puck." When a partner suggested that American Ryan Kesler's hand was badly swollen barely five minutes after it was hit by the puck — even though Kesler wore a glove — Emrick cautioned, "we won't diagnose that." Kesler quickly returned to the game. And when, during a break, the camera caught four Canadian hockey officials sitting in the stands who each had NHL experience, Emrick remarked, "2,134 wins in four guys." Wow. Does the man have a calculator implanted in his head?
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

And when a puck goes flying into the stands Doc will say 'That was a fine catch by a guy from Fargo, North Dakota'.
