Mike Lange - Best Calls 2009 (Part 1/4)

I started recording the TV and radio broadcasts of Penguins games in early March when the Penguins were in the middle of a franchise record 5 win road series. Despite the wins, chances for a hockey championship in Pittsburgh at that point in the season seemed very small. But the Penguins rallied the rest of the way to cap off an amazing Stanley Cup-winning season, and Mike Lange was with them the whole way. Out of the more than 110 highlights I recorded, here are what I feel are his best calls of the Penguins' remarkable 2008-09 season. Thanks to NHLTorrents for their excellent caps of playoffs games when my TV tuner started to crap out.

Part 1: The Regular Season and part of Round 1 (because I guess an 11-1/2 minute video is far too long for YouTube).

@lawrence142002 Not a Pens fan but Steigerwald is AWFUL. I watched Pens/Habs highights from last year's playoffs with Steigerwald doing the narration a few days ago and I want the time I had back. Good Lord does he ever suck.
