}}Patrick Daniel "Dan" Kelly (September 17, 1936 – February 10, 1989) was a Canadian-born sportscaster best known for his radio play-by-play coverage of the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League, from early in their existence until his death more than two decades later, as well as for his national television work on NHL telecasts in both the United States and Canada.[1]

Broadcasting NHL games on national television

In addition to his 21 seasons broadcasting the Blues, Kelly broadcast NHL games on national television in the United States and Canada for a number of years. He broadcast 16 Stanley Cup Finals between 1969 and 1988, working for CBS, the NHL Network, the USA Network, CBC, CTV, and Global. He was also the lead play-by-play announcer of the 1987 Canada Cup, and also the lead play-by-play hockey announcer for CTV at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary.

Memorable calls

He was noted for his ability to project above the roaring crowds at the NHL arenas. He acknowledged that his booming call, "HE SHOOTS, HE SCORRRES!" was patterned after that of the famous long-time NHL announcer Foster Hewitt.

Kelly called two of the most famous goals in hockey history. One was Bobby Orr's Cup-winning overtime goal in 1970:

{{quote|Bobby Orr... behind the net to Sanderson to OOOORR! BOBBY OOOORR! . . . scores, and the Boston Bruins have won the Stanley Cup!}}

The other was Mario Lemieux's goal with 1:26 remaining in the decisive game 3 of the 1987 Canada Cup:

{{quote|Hawerchuk wins it ahead, here's Lemieux poking it to centre. Lemieux ahead to Gretzky, has Murphy with him on a 2-on-1. To Lemieux. In on goal. He shoots! HE SCORES!! Mario Lemieux, with 1:26 remaining!}}

Kelly was also in the booth for another Stanley Cup winning goal, calling the action for CBS as Bob Nystrom won the Cup for the Islanders in 1980:

{{quote|Islanders' number 10, Henning to Tonelli. Here's Tonelli with Nystrom. The pass to Nystrom -- HE SCOOORES! BOB NYSTROM! And the New York Islanders have won the Stanley Cup!}}

He also called a Stanley Cup semifinal in 1971 at Chicago Stadium (nicknamed "The Madhouse on Madison"). When the Blackhawks scored an empty-netter to clinch the series, he yelled, "I can feel our broadcast booth shaking! That's the kind of place Chicago Stadium is right now!"

Other sports broadcast by Kelly besides hockey

Besides hockey, Kelly also broadcast NFL for CBS Sports, as well as Missouri Tigers football, St. Louis Cardinals baseball and St. Louis Cardinals football for St. Louis radio station KMOX at different times in his career.

Death and honors

Kelly died on February 10, 1989 from lung cancer. His sons, John and Dan, have been broadcasting NHL games for various NHL franchises, including the Blues, for whom John is currently doing the television play-by-play.

Several months after his death, Kelly was posthumously awarded the Lester Patrick Trophy.[2] In 2006, the St. Louis Blues dedicated the Enterprise Center press box in honor of Kelly.
