  • i wish they kept this an alternate theme or something

  • R.I.P Theme Song

    Also R.I.P. Boogard, Rypien, Belak.

  • This is the best arrangement of the song. The new arrangement they use on TSN sounds more "jazzy" and it just doesn't sound quite as good as this one.

  • atleast CBC got a good new song

    TSN wrecked this song

    fucking greedy composer

  • @893160007 The composer, I'm pretty sure, is dead. It's the composers family that is greedy.

  • song is now (c) Walt Disney

  • lvu this song go pens go

  • i just cryed and threw up in my pants... i miss this so much!!!

  • Just reminds me of growing up watching this...now they have that stupid fucking song. I wish they had the old one back...

  • @glaptruthmagnum FUCK YOU PENS SUCK GO HABS GO!!!

  • goose bumps everytime.

  • totally just muted the new HNC theme on tv and played this. I don't care if the guy who made the new one is from alberta it sucks shit.

  • The Hockey Theme should be in the Public domain. Why did TSN have Simple Plan cover it. That blows. This exact arrangement on the CBC was Canadian hockey.

  • 0:46 - 1:23 Epic.

  • Gretzky, Lemieux, Orr, Howe, Richard, Roy, GILMOUR?!?!? HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA

    (Don't know what Yzermans doing there either)

  • canada day

  • This song fucking makes HNIC

  • The video should start at 0:46 that is the true theme

  • The old theme was the best, but the new one is actually pretty good, just give it a chance.

  • i gave it a chance, but all it is is a wanna be theme song, a crappy replacement.

  • suck it johnny

  • Chances over.  There is still only one Hockey Theme. Suck it, Versus!

  • Oooh gawd, which sucks worse? The bastardized version of the theme on TSN, or Versus in the U.S.?

  • long live hockey, and long live Canada

  • The Nickleback theme music should be played before every hockey game on CBC.

    Everyone, inclucing all Youtube users should put pressure on CBC to replace the present "new" HNIC anthem with this anthem.

    The Nickleback version reflects our Canadian game today.

    The one chose by people, made by a school teacher, that CBC uses now, is pure garbage. It's crap!

  • last week they played this instead of the crap version by mistake.

  • anyone catch that on video?

  • still get goosebumps hearing this theme... hcokey day in canada tomorrow!!

  • Yeah! Habs and Sens! I can't wait! I know this hockey fan in the United States is ready! Go Habs!

  • hi everybody

  • I use to lose hearing the old theme music come on when I was a kid in Detroit. The new one sucks ass

  • cbc was the best and still is...but now stupid rds and tsn took the soundtrack...it doesnt even go well with theyre intro video

  • grow up fags please, the new one is awesome, opens up a new page in hockey, god so much bitching and whining. just watch tsn then

  • Shut up fool!!!!!!!!!!

  • new one is sucks, the old on was the best song.

  • your an idiot

  • what is the song?

  • The 1st one is by Nickelback - Saturday Night

  • FUCKS RDS AND TSN THEY STOLE THE THEME!

  • they didnt stoke the theme... they bought it

  • death to the new starting all hail the old

  • hockey will never be the same without the theme... :(

  • a saturday night just isn't the same anymore :(

  • tabarnak

  • This is the way it should be!!

  • *sigh* I miss this!!! :-(

  • Lol, Nickel Back song that was taken from Elton John is awesome!

  • Foster Hewitt....legend.

  • This totally owns the TSN version not to mention they abuse the song and it simply gets old really quick.

  • fuck yeah! hockey belongs to canada! hands down the best sport ever invented!

  • Go Habs Go !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the cbc's a bunch of fucktards. the original dolores claman song rocks and blows away the competition. the cbc claims to care for canada's cultural heart and then they screw this up.

  • Let's not forget which of our beloved political parties has repeatedly cut the funding to said "cultural heart," maybe if the Conservatives hadn't the budget would have allowed that theme song to remain.

  • GO LEAFS GOOOO!!

  • go canucks!

  • im so happy tsn has this song now

    at least a worthy station has this song :D

  • TSN sucks

  • FUCK YOU....HNIC will always be better than NHL on TSN you bird

  • Fuck you.....HNIC will always be better than NHL on TSN you bird

  • AGREED 110%!

  • dude....not kool

  • ahah what do you expect he's a Leafs fan they think weird, they also think they can contend for the cup every year, and this guy also thinks TSN's hockey coverage is good and worthy which is far from the truth

  • This is the only song CBC should be using. All the submissions are ass compared to this. It gets you pumped, the 5 finalists that CBC showed yesterday were IMO terrible

  • So.. how many people actually hate the woman who owns the theme right now??

  • I hate it it sucks

    it makes no sense the song

    for CBc

    I Upset that the lady that owns the Hockey theme that was specially created for CBC hockey night in Canada did not want CBC to have the song

  • my dad works for cbc...and the whole fact isthat the stupid lady who wrote the song,wanted a fricking WHOLE FUCKING lot of money, so much money that even cbc didnt want and/or couldnt pay it. so she said, bye and cbc said..wellokstupidcunt. lol

  • saturday night's all right for fighting would be great if it was Flotsam and Jetsam and not this gay ass band

  • LEAFS KICK ASS!

  • TSN and RDS now have the rights, I cannot imagine that song being used for another intro besides HNIC :(

  • I agree the anthem contest is really a joke the best songs submitted so far are all crap compared to the old theme

  • Finally i found a vid with this short version song thanks dude.

  • CBC doesn't need that hockey anthem challenge contest to find a replacement for the old legendary theme. They should use Nickleback's song. End of story.

    Many people who posted anthems, their music just sucks, including one who's supposedly a favorite. A loser named Logan Aube

    From Aurora, ON. His anthem named Hockey Scores is for the goats.

  • Agreed, I don't like any of the submissions. They should either use Nickelback's song (one of the only good songs out of that group) or buy the rights to another popular theme.

  • this songs sounds better on CBC then it would on TSN. So does this mean TSN is going to be showing games every sat or not

  • TSN will still be showing certain weekday games, but not the Leafs on Saturday nights.

  • the competition they have going on for a new opening song is ridiculous, it will NEVER NEVER replace the hockey night song. it's been playing for decades and you can never take the tradition away. shame on CBC for taking our second anthem away from us. if this doesn't define canadian, nothing else does.

  • saturday's all right for fighting...would be a good song for the show

  • saturdays will never be the same :(

    i love that song

  • Feel free to visit my NHL TRIVIA! The question is posted weekly at my channel comments. Send answer to me using YOUTUBE MESSAGES. Also I always accept friend invitations.

    Dave Gill

  • cant believe they sold it this is the real canadian national anthem

  • what is this song called

  • saturday night by nickelback

  • sry start song at 56 seconds :) It goes very good!

  • Try the song Stand up for rock and roll by Airbourne and start the song at 55 seconds. If you search the song on Youtube start song at 1:00 :)

  • It's going to be really weird to hear this on CTV and TSN now...

  • HAHAHAHAHA how you like the shoe chad... WOOOO GRANDE PRAIRIE

  • MAPE LEAFS ALL THE WAY !!!!

  • NickelBack

  • The New Hockey Night In Canada Theme I Bet

  • I'm in Canada, and the leafs kinda do play bad.. :(

  • RIP

  • Brap brap CANADA all da way!

  • Am I the only one who gets all revved up and chills at the same time when I hear this song....?

    Wow, it's something special for sure!

  • not going to happen keep on dreaming

  • can the nickleback song and get back the original plz

  • jim houston wish we had him in columbus

  • BEST theme song in sports:-D Also like the Nickelback/Kid Rock tune that comes just before, the two songs are the PERFECT way to get you pumped for Saturday nights...yeah, even if I'm watching my Leafs getting pummeled YET AGAIN every week LOL:-p;-)

  • leafs suck.

  • ya right. We get huge media coverage and we're in the basement!

  • so does your mom.

  • very true. GO HABS GO!!!

  • It's Saturday Night's Alright for fighting from Nickelback and KidRock

  • and it sucks... fuck im gonna miss the old one.

  • In fact, that's a cover of an Elton John song. The Nickelback version is extra gay, and gives canadian music a bad name. RUSH ftw.

  • i sometimes tune in just for this song.. they always do a great job

  • Hello Canada!

    And Hockey fans in the United States and Newfoundland!

  • Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting featuring Kid Rock. It's on one of the Charleys' Angels soundtracks

  • Can anyone tell me the title of that song?

  • Saturday Night's Alright for fighting
