Episode Details

Peter Maher, the legendary voice of the Calgary Flames for over 30 years, has passed away — leaving behind a legacy of unforgettable broadcasts, community spirit, and unmatched character. His iconic calls brought hockey to life for fans across Canada, from Stanley Cup triumphs to nail-biting playoff battles. Beyond the mic, he was a beloved gentleman who connected deeply with players, fans, and colleagues alike — earning the Peter Maher Award for being the ‘Good Guy’ in the locker room. Tributes poured in from Hall of Famers, teammates, and media, including former broadcast partner Mike Rogers, who called him one of the finest people they’d ever met. Inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2006 — with fellow legend Lanny McDonald on the committee — Maher’s impact was undeniable. As the Flames prepare to play their final season at the Saddledome this October, his name will forever echo in the radio booth — a fitting tribute to a storyteller, mentor, and true friend.
