Great story hotd14. Takes me back to being 11, sitting on the floor after jiggling the antenna in our home in Michigan to get Channel 9, CBC. As soon as this RUclips Vid plays it reminds me of those moments on Saturday nights.
This is a very well done video. Obviously, I live in southern California (GO DUCKS!!!), so I have no idea what Hockey Night in Canada is like, but just hearing the theme kicks major ass. Very fine effort, I just wish the audio flows a little better. That's my only complaint.
The best part about the song is at 0:25 I seem to recall that part being used a lot more during the telecast when Molson was still the sponsor. Anyone else agree, or am I nuts?
I like the new theme better, and have no attachment to this old theme - mind you I am a relatively new hockey fan, but I do know a bit about music. I totally get the nostalgia about this theme, but really in hindsight, the new theme doesn't change anything about HNIC and the game. I think the new theme is more full bodied and has a bit more of a heroic aspect to it, which I think reflects how many hockey fans few their fave players.
@mattredwings2009 Well let's hope the NHL doesn't hire you in their marketing team - you'd fail miserably. Sport is a business and #1 priority in any sport is to grow the fan base (grow revenue base)

The Best hockey theme in all of mankind.
That was cool..especially the part at the end from the Wings Cup win in 2008
Very nice effort!! I liked how you spliced the early 90s theme to make it fit the video.
Miss the old theme 🇨🇦
sends chills down my spine. Sad we lost this song...greed, politics...stupid just stupid
i would have kept the "we want the cup" chants and the "hello hockey fans.." speech. right after he says "newfoundland", then start up the song.
LOVE IT!!!

You've done a really good job here with this video :D
Terrific ! You're quite talented

Who else is replaying from 0:54 to the end??
so good sooooooooo good
This one is good one.
Someone tell the Blackhawks that this HNIC intro goes pretty well with Chelsea Dagger.

Pretty good, but too long, its better when its 30 seconds.
