The Boston Bruins have announced a significant change in their broadcast team for the upcoming NHL season.

Following the retirement of long-time play-by-play announcer Jack Edwards, Judd Sirott has been named as his successor. This transition marks the end of an era for Bruins fans, who have long been accustomed to Edwards' iconic commentary.

NESN announces the new voice of the Boston Bruins

Today, NESN confirmed that Judd Sirott will take over as the lead play-by-play announcer for the Boston Bruins. This announcement came via a video posted by NESN, with Kevin Dupont sharing the news. Sirott, who has been the radio voice of the Bruins since the 2017-18 season, is a familiar name to many fans. His deep knowledge of the team and its supporters, combined with his experience, makes him a strong choice for the role.
"We are excited to welcome Judd to NESN," said Sean McGrail, NESN's CEO and President.
Sirott's appointment follows a successful stint as the pre and post-game host for the Chicago Blackhawks, where he honed his skills before joining the Bruins. His ability to connect with fans and his comprehensive understanding of the game will be critical as he steps into this prominent role.
Jack Edwards, who announced his retirement at the end of the 2023-24 NHL season, has expressed his support for Sirott. Edwards' legacy with the Bruins is significant, and his departure marks a major shift for the team's broadcast experience.
«I grew up listening to Bruins games on the radio with legendary play-by-play voices. So I'm thrilled to have the B's most recent, outstanding radio voice joining me calling games on TV,» said Andy Brickley, NESN color analyst. «NESN viewers are going to really enjoy Judd's love of the game, his knowledge and passion for the Bruins and his respect for the fans. Can't wait to get going together!»

As Sirott transitions into this new role, he faces the challenge of meeting the high expectations set by Edwards' tenure. It will be intriguing to see how he adapts to this prestigious position and how he resonates with Bruins fans in the coming seasons.
