Holy Mackinaw: A Tribute to Joe Bowen | The Leaf: Blueprint S11 E14

For over four decades, Joe Bowen hasn't just called the games; he’s been the soundtrack of Leafs Nation. In this special episode of Blueprint, we go behind the curtain for "Holy Mackinaw Night" to witness the man behind the mic receive the ultimate honors. From the emotional renaming of "Bowen’s Booth" to an intimate, career-spanning sit-down with his son, Sean, we explore the legacy of a broadcasting icon. Witness the final home-ice ovation in Toronto and follow Joe to Ottawa for his final curtain call, culminating in a tribute to partner Jim Ralph and one last, unforgettable "Holy Mackinaw." - Bless you, Joe.
