JOE BUCK CALLS GOAL DURING LIVE TV INTERVIEW
Transcript
Offense turns into defense, turns into offense. There's just nothing like it. So if I was home, I'd say, hey, Buck. Shut up. I wanna watch the Blues try to defend this power play by the Maple Leafs, but I'm gonna keep talking. Alright. So one of the best parts of being a hockey dad or a hockey parent is the fact that oh, there we go. Call the joke. You you sooner. Short handed. Three to one. Blues.
