Anyone catch the opening last night for Hockey Night in Canada?
It was a hockey poetry piece with quotes from different songs with lyrical references to the game cut to visuals of Sundin, Jagr, Heatley and Ovechkin.
It was really well done.
"We all squeezed the stick and we all pulled the trigger" was one of them.

Ron Maclean is obviously a fan and will drop Hip lyric references occasionally too. He interviewed Gord Downie once and sort of overdid it (video was posted here a while ago.)

I met Ron Maclean at one of the 2002 Hummingbird shows... and I think it's fair to say he's much more than a casual fan.

Haha I always use the term 'Fully and Completely'. It just sounds rad!
I remember a few seasons ago they used the song 'Fight' in a HNIC opening video.
