That’s hilarious – I saw this too. Dunno, I kinda liked the ‘shred’ on this one…

Those anthems were something else…
As entertaining as it was (and maybe a bit offside for the more traditionalist folks) i don’t think Anaheim will be having him back.
The entire leafs bench looked extremely confused, except bertuzzi who was rocking out a bit which tracks.

You could tell Matthews was holding it in too

I’ve been sent some of Dave’s social media stuff by a friend for a while now.
Got to say I was totally shocked to see him up there. I thought he was some fringe social media troll/comedian.
Turns out he kinda is lol

That’s hilarious lmao, also highlights how fucking stupid anthems are before the game. This tradition needs to die.

WITCH TAINT!!!!!
I usually skip the anthem but flipped back with the sound off and thought…that guy looks like Dave Hill….holy shit what is he doing at a hockey game. Unreal.

That’s the laugh of a guy about to make 80-90 million right there.

Youbcan watch the whole thing on Spirtsnet’s replay of the game.

It was cool for the first 10 seconds, then it was a bit much. It was very shrill at times and I can only imagine how hard it was on the ears live in the arena. I play guitar so I probably enjoyed it more than the average person but it was insane at times. So much wah. So much whammy.
But seeing dude is a comedian, I could 100% see this being a bit and he knew just how silly he was being. If so kudos to him. I checked his [wiki page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Hill_(comedian)) and one of the first lines has made me want to dig deeper.
>In 2014, Hill appeared in a YouTube Show called Metal Grasshopper with Phil Anselmo, where Hill plays himself as a metal fan looking to be coached by Anselmo on how to be metal.
Anyone else remember when they had that like 10 year old kid come out and play the anthems on guitar? That was my favorite so far.

Idk if it’s just a coincidence but it seems like every time the Leafs play in the states, the anthem singer/performer feels like someone they brought in off the street without vetting them first.
I was also LoLing at this performance last night and was thinking about how much composure it takes for the athletes to not be laughing knowing they’re on camera

Dave Hill doing the anthem made my day, been following that guy since his Metal Injection videos a decade ago. Funny, self-deprecating and niche comedian and metalhead, the Anthem fit his persona.

One anthem for Canada, one anthem for the US, and one anthem for the almighty rock gods LOL
