Here’s Video Of A Goal That Made A Minor-League Hockey Announcer Lose Any Semblance Of Control

When the Lewiston MAINEiacs took a 2-1 lead over the Montreal Junior in their Quebec Major Junior Hockey League second-round series, announcer D.J. Abisalih got excited. Like, really, really, really excited. Which was understandable considering Étienne Brodeur's goal broke a tie with five seconds left in regulation.

For the record, the MAINEiacs took a 3-1 series lead tonight with a 4-1 win. They have to win one in Montreal to take the series, though.
