http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Thorne
i cant find the actual article online anywhere but from what i gather, it seems like people say he goes over the top on the most routine plays. i think he's great

I've always enjoyed Thorne and Clement doing the ESPN Games. They worked well together.
My favorite moment was during a playoff game in the 2nd OT where Thorne said "If you are just joining us..." then Clement interrupts him and yells "Where the Hell have you been!!?!!?"
Good times.

Gary Thorne isn't the worst announcer in hockey.
He is one of the best!
I miss him in the NHL!
I enjoyed watching the college 'playoffs' because I got to listen to him again.

Gary Thorne is hands down the best announcer in any sport! He is extremely versatile and calls the game the way it should be called. Where is he now? I hardly here from him.

Who made that statement? Gary Thorne is one of the very best. Some of the goofs we have to listen to now almost take all the enjoyment out of watching the game.

There is nothing like playoff hockey with the voice of gary thorne. I'll admit, when he calls a game I get goose bumps. Now the NHL has a bunch of jerk offs who call the games now.

Tends to be a bit of a homer for the sentimental story, like when Ray Bourque finally won the Cup with Colorado (you would think the Devils didn't exist in that series).

I have never heard anyone say he is the worst in hockey. Where in the hell did you hear that? The Ducks have the worst announcers hands down.
