Bruins Radio Network

Meet the Bruins' radio broadcast team for the flagship station, 98.5 The Sports Hub.

Ryan Johnston: Play-By-Play

Ryan Johnston took over the radio Play-by-Play duties prior to the 2024-25 season. He previously was the long-time host of the “Sports Hub Hockey Show”, while also occasionally filling in on PBP duties for Bruins games.

A graduate of Syracuse University, Johnston has spent much of his career in Sports Broadcasting. He called Boston College hockey on the Sports Hub for two seasons, while also handling the Play-by-Play duties for the Beanpot tournament and the Hockey East semifinal and championship games that were carried on the station. He also spent nine seasons as the voice for The Lowell Lock Monsters and Lowell Devils AHL franchises.

Johnston has done freelance college hockey play-by-play, calling games for UMass Lowell, Merrimack College, and The University of New Hampshire on NESN, ESPN+ and Fox Sports.

Bob Beers: Action Analyst

Bob Beers has been the Bruins' radio analyst since the 1997-98 season. He first entered the broadcast booth following an eight-year professional career as a defenseman in the NHL and with minor league affiliates.

Drafted by Boston as their 10th pick, 210th overall, in the 1985 NHL Draft, he played three-plus seasons with the Bruins organization before moving to NHL stops in Tampa Bay, Edmonton and New York with the Islanders for four more seasons.

Beers returned to the Bruins for the 1996-97 season before retiring as a full-time player. He also played parts of two seasons with the Bruins' AHL affiliate in Providence as his radio schedule allowed in both 1998-99 and 1999-2000. Beers has also worked with NHL Radio and Versus television broadcasts during the playoffs.
