Emrick already has a connection to the “Green Line Rivalry." During the NHL lockout season, 2004-05, he did play-by-play of the telecast of the final BU-BC game played at Walter Brown Arena, a 3-2 Terrier victory that was Coach Jack Parker’s 700th win. Video highlights, compliments of Sean Pickett.
