Connecticut Whale News Release
HARTFORD, December 10, 2012: On behalf of AEG Management CT and the XL Center, Senior Vice-President and General Manager Chuck Steedman today issued the following statement on the passing of WTIC-AM broadcasting legend Arnold Dean:
"It was my privilege to know Arnold for 28 years, and I was fortunate enough to work with him in several of my different roles over the years, at UConn, where I started my career, with the Red Sox, Raycom Sports and, of course, the XL Center. In each of those cases, our personal relationship transcended the professional one, and I can honestly say I have never known a finer gentleman than Arnold. He was a genuine mentor to me in every sense, and, like the entire listening population of Connecticut, I am grateful for having been able to enjoy Arnold's peerless work on the WTIC airwaves for so many years. He was truly "ËThe Dean' of Connecticut sports media, and the heart and soul of Connecticut sports media. I will miss him dearly and his presence in the State will be greatly missed. The entire AEG organization extends its heartfelt condolences to his family."
