Tom, I didn't see the situation you referenced, as the hockey season ended 2 weeks ago (for me

). Is it possible that Emrick missed something? Sure, but I will bet that he admitted his mistake and probably apologized for it. Most broadcasters would simply make **** up and pretend it didn't happen. Have you noticed how often broadcasters of all sports will tell you what just happened, then a replay will come up that completely shatters the illusion they have just created, but will stick to their interpretations anyway?
There are a handful of honest, sincere guys out there who's main goal is NOT self promotion. Emrick is one of them.
Want an example of the opposite? Have you ever heard John Sterling broadcast a game?
