RJ is the best
Rip Rick
RIP RJ. Goat.
Will forever bring amazing memories anytime one of his calls is replayed….he will be missed
May he rest in peace. He had some of the most iconic calls in the NHL and he will be missed dearly
Definitely a sad day in hockey!!!
I remember playing hockey in gym school and hearing "Top shelf where momma hides the cookies." He is truly iconic. I will be using the RJ Labatt bottle opener for as long as it works. He was such an amazing personality. Of all his broadcast partners over the years. As a kid, I never truly understood just how special he was and assumed all teams had an RJ. We were truly blessed as fans to have him calling our games for over 50 years
