opposing fans probably just tired of hearing it so much

This reads like a Small Thing….

I watched the Avs play in Miami, and they played All The Small Things during the 3rd period, totally ripping off the magic that is Blink 182

Been saying it for a year. Great fans. Terrible taste in music. It’s a hockey game and you’re singing a song that reminds you of being 12 and eating gogurt….

Shoutout to a certain Calgary flame, who uses « Nas is like » by Nas as a personalized goal song.

Gotta be honest, I don’t care about the song either, as a song. Of course I like it since the positive association with Avs scoring, but as a song it’s not great.

That’s because the rest of the league is tired of hearing it. It’s overplayed for them 🤘🏽

The Dallas song is by far the worst! Also: Seattle destroying the legacy of Kurt Cobain by butchering Lithium is also grounds for the worst. I’m not a fan of the hey hey hey or our juggaloo Woop woop, but it is what it is.

I have trouble distinguishing it in the crowd noise, can’t hear when the hey hey hey part is supposed to start

I accept if this is an unpopular opinion but I’m not a fan of the “whoop whoop” following goals.

Absolute garbage take. Hey Hey Hey til I die. Love me darts world championship theme.

I miss the old song
thereelkrazykarl
Have we all forgot what came before our current goal song?
The article is paywalled so I’m not 100% confident in which song they’re reporting on, but our goal song is Chase the Sun, not ATST, contrary to a lot of comments here. Disliking the ATST tradition is one thing but I don’t think that’s what’s being reported on here
dammit_bobby420
Rest of the league got it forced on them all of last year as we draxed them, so they have negative emotions associated with the song.

Honestly I miss the old air-raid siren and “Rock ‘n’ Roll” by Gary Glitter (though he’s a complete piece of shit).

We should make “Rocky Mountain High” our goal song… if for nothing else just to have the weirdest dichotomy between horn and song

Interesting that the last four Stanley Cup winners are 3 of the bottom 4 selections. I don’t hate the current goal song but I don’t love it either. But I don’t have many expectations that I’m going to like what the Avs do musically. Nothing would sound the same if I was in charge of Avs music.
I do like the idea some other teams have toyed with of having a specific goal song tied to a certain player. Variety is always good.

Hmm. Disagree. The song isn’t unreal or anything but it has crowd participation which is big for goal songs, and is unique to COL (I think) and sounds fun enough. There’s plenty that are way worse. Objectively

Meh, I’m not a fan either. But Maple Leafs should’ve been last. Good song, just not a goal song.

All the small things

The article even calls it out: the Avs song is All the Small Things and our goal song is pretty irrelevant. Imo it’s pretty bland, but that’s okay. I’m not here for « hey hey hey, » I’m here to turn the lights off and carry me home.
I love that the Devils use the Gaslight Anthem, though. That’s perfect and I’d never noticed (I can’t remember the last Devils home game I’ve watched with sound on).
EDIT: They had the Bouncing Souls too? Nice! It would have been super easy to just pick Bruce and none of the other Jersey sound but someone actually knows their shit. I know they still play the Boss and that’s legit but it seems like a good mix.

I question any list that doesn’t say Pantera and Dallas have the best goal song. The Avs’ isn’t great, at best it’s inoffensive, but it’s no where near as bad as Carolina’s or Chicago’s.

Yeah….I’m sure they’re all tired of hearing it eh?
Hey! Hey! Hey!! All the way!!

WHAT!? Chase the Sun is an absolute banger! I guess these people don’t find rowdy darts fans charming either, smh. The only thing I would want to see change is more people in the stands dressed as Ninja Turtles, Mario characters or Where’s Waldo. And more fist pumping the air during the song.

We should play Elevation by u2. “El-ev-ation Woooooooooo!!!!!! Woooooooo!!!!’”

I remember when we first switched to this goal song it was one of the most popular. Funny what PTSD does to a person

I’m partial now to the Hey Hey Hey. But if I could choose I’d pick the part of “Cutthroat” by (sorry) imagine dragons where the lyrics are hard rock screamed “Only one of us will make it out alive and it’s NOT YOU!”
MusicBeerHockey
I particularly LOVE the goal song. It’s such a vibe!
Awkward_traveler
What is the name of the guitar riff song they used to use when they came on ice? I think they still use it in the second period. https://youtu.be/kt149KEOqAw

But first in cup run song, so gtfo…

On the flip side I love what the devils did. They had the Gary glitter (May he rot in prison) “Hey!” as their goal song, fans would go “Hey! You suck!”
Trying to be more family friendly, they took it down and replaced it with Howl by Gaslight anthem. Fans still found a way to incorporate “You Suck!”

I don’t care if he still owns the rights and is a pedo, I want Rock & Roll pt. 2 back!

I’m fine with hey hey hey, but if we change it I think it should be Part Hard by Andrew WK.
