While not voting for my own song which is the far and away winner, two stand out as the 2nd best picks so far.

Dookie's "Can't You Hear Me Knocking"... especially the opening riff would be awesome and just begs for some hockey stick goal celly guitar.

Broken Ankles "Sabotage" says LETS ROCK!

Blitzkrieg Bop and The King's are also acceptable choices, both with fun riffs.

The rest of the choices... Including some songs I REALLY like (looking at you Spirit of Radio) can languish in goal song HELL!

Going through the ones I posted I think Can You Hear Me Knocking would be the on I'd actually use.

Not bagpipes, but Big Country's In a Big Country has the bagpipe sounding guitars.  Does that count?

 

Great song.  What was the album, again?  Can’t recall.  🤣😏😜

This would be my special message to our visitors at Leaf games when the Sabres score.

 


You gotta love the guitar solo about 3/4 of the way through too.

I love this song, but it is even more amazing how they recorded this....in an empty stadium (save for the everyday workers working there) and in the snow and cold.  Even though it is not in a hockey arena, it has hockey season vibes.  I appreciate all the common people on this board and our sometime ridiculous thoughts.

 

 

Little know fact (maybe ????? - if you know your history you will know where you are coming from ... 😎).

The song was writen by American (I think) composer Aaron Copeland as a clasical piece in 1942 (I think) and was addapted to be the official song of the Montreal Olympics in '76.  This video was recorded at Montreal's Olympic Stadium in the winter of 1977 when ELP were on their North American tour that year.  They were rehearsig with thier orchestra in the basement of the Big O when Greg Lake went up into the stadium and was impressed by the vast openness.

If we’re for that sentiment then I would have to make this my Leafs/Bruins game song

Nice selection, but a guy with a chicken on his head should have this one ...
