It was a short but sweet relationship between Doc Emrick and the Vegas Golden Knights.
It was a sad day for Vegas Golden Knights and NHL fans on Monday after the legendary Mike “Doc” Emrick announced his retirement, opting to hang up his microphone following an outstanding career.
Starting his broadcasting career in 1973, Doc’s legendary career spanned 40 years, nearly 4,000 games and 22 Stanley Cup Finals, including this year’s which saw the Tampa Bay Lightning lift the greatest prize in all of sports.
