Veteran Penguins Radio Voice Mike Lange To Work Fewer Games

The Penguins announced that radio play-by-play announcer Mike Lange "will handle only 15 of 41 road games plus the 41 at home" for the '17-18 season, which will be his 43rd in the Penguins booth. Josh Getzoff will "fill in for Lange." The 28-year old came on in '15 as a "radio host and PensTV reporter." Lange said, "I just thought that right now it was time to take a step back. Hopefully they'll have another long run in the playoffs. ... It gives a chance for some young guys to get in and get some reps" (PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE, 9/22).
