Which is why he should be relegated to doing features only. 

Is he locked in for the future already? I think he might have mentioned it on a broadcast that he's signed through 2026?

I hope not. He's fine mostly but I want more.

I need to feel some emotion from my announcers once in a while and some excitement when it's called for. 

Also. Less excitement on the opponents goals. I hate that.

For the umpteenth time, Dunleavy and Ray are also watching the game on TV at Highmark Stadium. They are not in the building.

 

 

I’m well aware of that. What about the five seasons when Dunleavy WAS doing it live from the venue? He’s been horrible since day one, regardless.

Per latest update, 2021, Dan has renewed once again as the voice of the Buffalo Sabres indefinitely. (Wikipedia)

Wow - TV timeouts? Penalty calls?

Make 2nd better than first w OZ possession… pucks deep take the man in forecheck

Always has been. 

While I’m just some jag off watching the games on tv, I’m totally fine with interference by a teammate when defenseman are retrieving the puck in their own zone below the goal line.  
Interference by a teammate gives them time to not get murdered by a forechecker bearing down on them.
But anything in the neutral zone or above the goal line in the offensive zone needs to be called. NHL officiating is awful.

I like Dan Dunleavy as a person and he is,by all accounts, a good guy and person so I feel bad bagging on his play by play sometimes.

Maybe I'm being unfair because of being spoiled with Ted Darling and RJ my whole life?

Those two are tough acts to follow and i'm sure he's doing his best.

Skinner with a play that makes you question the meaning of life.

The meaning of life: reach. Just keep reaching. Then, reach even further until you're off balance and no longer in good position and trip up on the experience.

He's also doing play-by-play from Buffalo on a TV screen. The road announcers are tough around the league. But yes... his call of the game even at home is a little lackluster.
