Condolences, sympathies and memories were being shared on social media following the death of Mike Lange, who will forever be remembered as the voice of the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Lange died Wednesday. He was 76.

"The Penguins organization joins the family, friends and fans of legendary broadcaster Mike Lange as we mourn his passing and remember his remarkable life," the franchise said on X, formerly Twitter.

The Pittsburgh Pirates was part of the global sports community mourning Lange's loss.

"Mike was a fixture in our city for decades and will remain in our hearts," the Pirates said.

Lange was a recipient of the Hockey Hall of Fame's Foster Hewitt Award in 2001 for outstanding contributions to his profession, the NHL Public Relations account posted.

X user Dante Shuriken posted a video from 2009 of Lange's top 10 calls.

"'Legend' doesn't even begin to describe him," the Pittsburgh Clothing Co. said on its account.

A well-known and highly active Pittsburgh account, going by Joey Bag of Donuts, posted a video in which Lange said, "I'll meet you in the schoolyard baby for all the marbles on Friday night in Detroit!"

"I can't adequately express how much Mike Lange meant to me," posted Steve Mears, play-by-play broadcaster of the Columbus Blue Jackets. "A friend, mentor & he treated me like a son."

Mears shared a photo of himself with Lange, in which he says Lange was giving him advice.

"His iconic calls and that incredible voice will live forever," Mears said. "Have a Miller Lite and Smile."
