As part of the final curtain call on his legendary broadcasting career, Rangers play-by-play voice Sam Rosen will reunite with longtime broadcast partner John Davidson in the booth. 

The Hockey Hall of Fame sportscasting duo will call the Blueshirts’ matchup with the Flyers on April 9 as part of a special “NHL on TNT” broadcast, TNT Sports announced Wednesday.

Rosen, who will retire at the conclusion of this season, called games alongside Davidson from 1986 through 2006, forging a beloved broadcasting tandem among Rangers fans.

They were the voices behind the Rangers’ last Stanley Cup victory in 1994, which featured Rosen’s iconic call, “This one will last a lifetime!”

The two had several memorable moments across two decades, including the time when he and Rosen were kidnapped and taken to the Canyon of Heroes for the Rangers championship parade.
