I’ve been thinking of doing a short 3-5 minute video for each team on their most electrifying goals, what do you guys all think?

He’s gonna be the next generation’s doc. Doc will forever be unmatched, but I think Brendan is the best we’ll get.

One of the best commentators currently.

My family has lived on Long Island since July of 2008. I've been following the Islanders every day since October of 2011 when John Tavares scored a hat trick against the Rangers to beat them 4-2. I was 9 years old at that time. He was my hero growing up. As a pre-teen and in my early teenage years I never thought that he would leave but when July 1, 2018 came I was crushed to my core. My mom's parents came over for lunch that afternoon and I didn't even say hi to them, I literally couldn't talk to anyone that day after the news broke that Tavares signed with Toronto. Brendan Burke was hired by the Islanders as their play by play broadcaster in August 2016 after Howie Rose stepped down, at first I was disappointed because he was the voice that I grew up with when the Islanders were a bottom feeder almost every year. Burke quickly won over the Islander fan base with his broadcasting which is second to none. He writes amazing opening monologues, my top three favorites are when the Islanders returned to Nassau Coliseum in December 2018, John Tavares' return to Long Island in February 2019, and when the Islanders opened UBS Arena in November 2021 after struggling for so long to get a new arena built to replace the crumbling Nassau Coliseum after the Lighthouse Project was rejected by Nassau County voters in August 2011. Burke lives on Long Island with his wife and three young children year round. He is beloved by the Islander fan base.

He’s still got so much to go! Only 36 years old

I'm an islanders fan yessir I met him irl at a free skate twice love him

Sticking with the NY area, you should do Howie Rose (Brendan Burke’s predecessor). Super underrated and deserves more recognition.

Definitely one of my favorite announcers! I'd love to see Moser (COL) soon. Every goal is like a Game 7 winner with him.

As an Islanders fan I would be sad to see Burke go national full-time but the NHL needs this type of announcer to escape the unenthusiastic mess that we all have to endure in the post-season. He's amazing and all of the NHL benefits. @5:40 that Washington goal got me just as excited as he was. THAT'S how you do it!

1:31 Still gives me chills.

6:00 his best call in my opinon

Amazing 😍

game 1 to the island is so iconic

I genuinely believe with Doc retired he is now the best commentator in the NHL

my favorite might be @1:39 Robin Lehner with the calm, "YEAH!" flex. so good. yeaaahhhh...

New best “no history on Long Island”

An islander legend

Just read that Brendan Burke is being considered as the replacement for the Yankees pbp veteran John Sterling. As of January 2023, Mr. Sterling’s ready for the baseball season to start.

burkie is so damn good for the isles

Another awesome video!

BRENDAN LETS GO ISLANDERS

„Mat Barzal trying catch up to this one. Poking on Ristoleinen. Got thru. Mat Barzal between his LEEEEGS! Take a bow Mat Barzal!” That’s what I miss here. My absolute favourite NHL announcer!

Is it just me or brendan burke and al michaels have the same voice, its uncanny. I cannot distinguish the one from the other!!!😮😮😮

My favorite Brendan Burke moments in this video 1:31 Josh Bailey's OT Goal against the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs 3:58 4:18 4:39 4:51 5:19 New York Islanders Biggest Comeback Win against the Detroit Red Wings

Thank you so much for accepting my request! It means a lot to me!

ima pens fan, but i love burke. he was excellent game 1 for NBCSN in the pens isles series. he might be my new fav announcer

YAY YOU DID IT

I was at that Tavares to Bailey OT winner vs flyers

I love the fact how they cells and there like did Barzal leave us and when the look they see him being massacared by 3 pens

He had another great playoff call that isn’t in this video - Draisatl to Desharnais for an Oiler OT win in game 5 against the Sharks. 2017 playoffs

Can you do Randy Hahn's best calls (san jose)

Jim Hughson needs a best calls video, there’s surprisingly none on KZfaq

Would love to see John Kelly.

2:29 Is That Offside Brendan

New sub

Can you do Dean Brown next?

could u do pat foley?(blackhawks)

i’m here after michael kay was gassing him up lol

Can you do John Kelly and Darren Pang for the Blues??

Can you do John Shorthouse calls?

Would you mind doing Jim Jackson's best calls or John Forslund best calls?

Can you do John Kelly please

you ever do a jack edwards ? if not can you please

The only other one I'd add is jamie benn ot winner against tb. Other than that great vid

I'm a pens fan and I think he should go to NBC bc he's good! Very energetic and entertaining! You should do Steve Mears next speaking of penguins 🐧🤣

John Kelly and Darren Pang calls

To Dave Goucher next!

Could you try Jeff Rimer in the near future? :)

Can you do Pierre Houde which is the habs commentator

Can you do Ken Daniels please

Could u do one for Joe bowen or Bob Cole

Can you please do Butch Goring funniest moments?

Got any Chris King?

Jim Hughson best calls?

Do Pat Foley

Do Joe Beninatti

Where's "Bazal between his legssss"

Sam Rosen next??

Do alex faust

Do Jack Michaels, or even John Bartlett, Michaels is more underrated imo, or even do Bob Cole

Jeff Rimer best calls?

Jack Edwards next?

First

It's so sad he's stuck with that atrocious co-commentator it makes Isles broadcasts tough to listen to he's so much better on NBCSN with better analysts

I honestly dont like brendan burke. When he commentates rangers games for nbc, he is more hyped when the other team scores and when rangers score he isn't hyped at all. John forslund is the hurricanes commentator. When he broadcasts nbc games he is hyped when both teams score, but brendan isnt.

new york rly be overreacting
