Hockey season is almost here, and Inside South Florida welcomed Kirk McKnight, author of “The Voices of Hockey: Broadcasters Reflect on the Fastest Game on Earth”. Now available in audio form, the updated book features stories and perspectives from 65 past and present NHL broadcasters, including nine Hall of Famers.
McKnight says writing the book gave him a new level of respect for NHL broadcasters: “It’s 60 minutes of nonstop action packed into two and a half hours, and the way they keep up with it is incredible.” Fans will find stories of unforgettable overtimes, rivalries, wild fan moments, and even near-death experiences at the NHL level.
Florida Panther fans will be excited to know the book also dives into the Cats’ recent Stanley Cup runs and how Florida has become a hockey powerhouse, with a team reaching the finals six years in a row.
Watch the full segment to hear McKnight’s favorite interviews, from legends like Marv Albert to insights on Wayne Gretzky and Sidney Crosby. To grab the new audiobook, head to Audible, Apple Books, or Amazon.
