During the late-night edition of the ESPN broadcast, Van Pelt attempted to recap moments from an Edmonton Oilers game but struggled mightily in the process.
“I don’t know what happened… I can’t talk, it’s a horrible feeling,” he said.“I feel fine, I just wish I could speak,” he continued. “We’re supposed to do a show tomorrow, we’ll see.”Scott Van Pelt lost his voice Wednesday night at an inopportune time.What a bizarre deal. Voice just kinda stopped working….while attempting to host a show. Not ideal, to say the least. Apologies for that mess.“What a bizarre deal. Voice just kinda stopped working….while attempting to host a show.
“It was so strange. I just couldn’t talk and the longer it went, the more pissed off I got. Like, WTF is this about?” he told SI.Getty Images As for his showtime status, Van Pelt said he’s “just going to see what happens today and hope it improves.” “People are being kind and sending me fixes on Twitter.

Van Pelt then offered an apology to Oilers center Connor McDavid, who recorded his 60th goal of the season Wednesday in a 4-3 victory against the Arizona Coyotes.
