For Flyers fans out there who are listening to the game on the radio i swear to God if u leave it on during the intermission breaks as they begin the show and cut to commercial they play this in the background when announcing sponsors. I just picked it up one day and was like holy shit thats the NHL 94 theme song lol no lie
NHL 94 was the best EA Sports hockey game of the 16 bit era. The only thing that was missing was the fighting and the blood but they took that out cause they thought that kids would do the same thing if they played hockey.
And 2 years later, this song still gives me the new jack swing vibe that many games on the Genesis gave me, like Sonic the Hedgehog games, Toejam and Earl, Moonwalker, NBA Jam, and some others. Well, all the funk tracks from Genesis gave a real, genuine vibe that today's music cannot convey to me on dancefloors. Because my standards are SO HIGH, that either somebody respects me, or they don't, they cannot sugar-coat it since I have sneaking suspicions that penetrate the anti-respect barrier.
I actually enjoy these old Mega Drive/Genesis Ice Hockey games more than the latest ones on PS3 and Xbox 360, these were just more simple and more fun, I feel like the new ones are too complicated at times.
Mactavish was the last player to play without a Helmet. Now you tell me how awsome Hockey was in the early to mid 90's thats my Hockey. Bring back the Jets and the Nords and the Whalers. Screw the wild The North Stars should have stayed in Minn.
wow, this game brings me back to 7th grade! haha, I remember when I played this game for the first time at my cousin's house, the opening menu came out and my cousin yelled out, "MONTREAL & LOS ANGELES?" I didn't even realize they were the teams that went to the Stanley Cup finals that year. The memories!
this brings back tons of memories. my dad and i used to play all the time. he'd be the canadiens and i'd play as boston. that was some grade A fun back in the day. Go Hawks!
Man this takes me back. I remember this song so well to this day. I would play this now and then but my brother would play it for hours! Still got it too!
This is exactly as i remember, there are a few versions of this tune floating about but this is most def the mega drive version in the correct speed, loved this game, made me like hockey i was always Detroit coz of yzerman and federov.
Al Iafrate and Al Macinnis's shots were fucking unreal in this game....i'm throwing this song on my ipod for sure lol, great video!

This is a great game but I have to admit the EA hockey franchise always surprises me with a great new feature every year.
Lets go to the wayback machine, shall we?
92 - The original, still great, the old divisions and everything
93 - couple of new teams perhaps, but fighting and blood
94 - The first sight of the one-timer
95 - Seasons with stat tracking and year end awards
96 - Revolutionizing gameplay, faster smoother, create player
I could go on...great series!
