it didn't need to change though. All CBC had to do was open their wallets a little more to keep everything running efficiently with the theme that people recognise. They dropped the ball big time, but it's not the first or last time they'll get hammered in the PR field.

Anyway, going on those five options, I will now probably do what I do when I watch Sunday night football and NBC's awful theme tune comes on; I turn it over for a a minute or two.

you're right, it didn't need to change. But I don't ever remembr saying "Lets go watch H.N.I.C. to hear the dopest intro theme song!!!" It usually had to do with watching Hockey...and Grapes on coaches corner. You better not talk when he's on, or you'll get something thrown at you.

In 1 year from now you would've completely forgotten about the old classic HNIC theme song.

it's going to be used on CTV (and hence Rogers Sportsnet and TSN!) quite regularly actually so technically it won't be forgotten. I see what you're saying, but I would have avoided the PR mess by just keeping the theme on CBC. It's just another example in bad judgement from CBC Sports.

lol. i like them all.

I voted #5, liked the celtic theme.

Too many of them sound too close to the original theme...if you're going to change it (which they shouldn't have) you might as well go a whole new direction.

Just not as far as that Ross Gellar special...

#1 no. it sounds like the theme song for "Saved by the Bell goes to the Casino"

#2 is definitely my fave if they get rid of that ghey punch at the end

#3 reminds me of the Mighty Ducks movie for some reason, therefore, no. this is hockey night in CANADIANA... nice guitar riff at the end though

#4 sounds like an african tribe song at the beginning... other than that it's catchy... can't picture myself in front of the TV thursday night though listening to this one

#5 gave me chills lol. not the right feel for weekend hockey... it's more like a "omg moral victory and everyone is crying"
