BACKRazor Sharp: Daryl Reaugh Steals the Show During Classics Signatures Hockey Break
Daryl “Razor” Reaugh is a cult-like icon in the Dallas area, the voice and face of the Dallas Stars and a former goalie for the Hartford Whalers and Edmonton Oilers who was, for the record, drafted ahead of Patrick Roy. Clearly, though, Razor has saved his best work for the broadcast booth, where he’s spent the last 17 years alongside Ralph Strangis forming one of the longest-running, game-calling duos in NHL history.
The charisma-oozing Reaugh lugs a rapier wit, resplendent demeanor and encyclopedic knowledge of the game and its players everywhere he goes, including to this special edition of Panini Unwrapped starring 2012-13 Classics Signatures Hockey.
Reaugh certainly is no stranger to boxes of Panini America trading cards. In addition to appearing in Classics Signatures Social Signatures insert (which proudly trumpets his burgeoning Twitter account), Reaugh has penned some downright delightful card backs for the Razor’s Choice insert that has appeared in the company’s last two Crown Royale releases.
But today is all about 2012-13 Classics Signatures. Really, though, it’s all about Razor and his mystifying color commentary. We hope you enjoy the video. (As for whether or not Reaugh left Panini America HQ yesterday toting an inordinate amount of One Direction and Justin Bieber product, well, I can neither confirm or deny that.)
