Known as the voice for Minnesota high school hockey, former North Stars great and U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame member Lou Nanne says farewell to an illustrious career behind the microphone
Sault-born hockey legend Lou Nanne has retired from the broadcast booth after a 60-year run with the Minnesota state high school hockey tournament.
"It's a big decision, but it's the right decision at the right time," Nanne told a reporter with Kare11.com. “Sixty years later, I never felt like I worked a day. So that's what's good about my life!" Born in Sault Ste. Marie in 1941, Nanne discovered his passion for the sport early and grew up playing with familiar local icons like Phil and Tony Esposito.
He began an illustrious international career when he captained the U.S. Olympic team in 1968 before leading the U.S. men’s national teams in 1975 and 1977.
