Flames Mourn Passing Of Peter Maher
\> For more than three decades, Peter Maher brought Flames hockey into the homes of generations of fans. From the franchise’s early years in Calgary, through the 1989 Stanley Cup championship, and countless memorable moments that followed, Peter’s unmistakable voice became part of the soundtrack of being a Flames fan.
\> Peter was named the first ever radio voice of the Calgary Flames in 1980, calling 33 straight seasons for the Flames, including the 1989 Stanley Cup championship and 2004 cup run, until his retirement following the 2013-14 season. His calls, his enthusiasm and his trademark expressions including “Yeah, baby!” and “You can put it in the win column!” became synonymous with Flames hockey.
\> His record and reputation led to several opportunities outside of his time with the Flames, including calling the 2005 IIHF World Championship; six NHL All-Star games; four Stanley Cup Finals and the entire Canadian men's slate of games at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, including the iconic “Golden Goal”.
