With it seemingly official that Ron MacLean will be back for another season on HNIC, never forget this iconic moment that got him the job in the first place. It's still amazing all these years later.

One of the most iconic clips in Canadian sports broadcasting. HNIC hasn't been the same since. Dave Hodge spoke for all of us.

That was such an iconic moment in HNIC history. I remember watching that live as it happened. Good ole Dave Hodge

I remember watching that live that night. Just seems like yesterday. Single 5:00 games on Saturday night. And the movie that played right after HNIC was never the same one listed in TV Guide. 🤣 Ahhhh memories….

I remember this very well when I was a kid. Then he went on to TSN.

He actually went to CKNW in Vancouver first, the flagship station for the Canucks at that time. It was a treat having him on our local airwaves.

What was better, Dave’s pencil flip or Bautista’s bat toss? Both great moments in Canadiana.

Haha I'm a Chicago Cubs fan so I will have to go with Hodge on this one.

December 18/22, I will never forget where I was, how it felt, or the tears that came with it. Football won that day. Messi won that day. And for all of us who believed, Happy anniversary. Three years on, and the beauty of this moment still feels just as pure.

That first moment I said, "This is it!" I still can't forget the thrill I felt the moment I saw it working on screen for the first time. It was an amazing feeling. What do you think of the progress? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

This promo for The Clone Wars teasing the return of Darth Maul is still one of the best pieces of Star Wars marketing ever IMO. I'll never forget seeing this for the first time in 2012 with my friends when The Phantom Menace was re-released in theaters. Still gives me goosebumps all these years later.

Calling President Trump a "dictator" for the past 4 years put him back in the White House—decisively I might add. All these years later, the left still doesn't get it 🤷‍♂️

How, is it already 10 years since the Emanuel tragedy? I'll never forget one moment from those first 48 or so hours. There may never be a more pivotal moment in this city, than Chris Singleton addressing it on the field at CSU. Tonight, I revisit with those who surrounded him that night. Rashard Alston- his best friend. Stuart Lake- his coach. Hayden Lake- a 10-year-old kid who idolized him. Daren Stoltzfus- He reported on it for us that night.
