Ok folks, sharpen your skates, because here we go for the fifth season of Toronto Marlies hockey at Ricoh Coliseum. The QEW rivalry to kick it off. And boy, is there a buzz in the air this season about this Marlies team. This has to be the most prospect filled roster in Marlies history. So many future Leafs are going to battle for the Marlies this year, and it's very exciting. Come see them now for $10 a ticket while you can! More on this later.
Well, the votes are in and boy oh boy did you fans step up by email and on Twitter with your picks for the Best Hockey Warm-Up Song of All-Time. I saw everything from classic rock to techno come across the board. And while bands like Blur, Finger Eleven and Nickelback made a good run, it ended up being some classics that came out up top for the vote, which is on now! I noticed that some of you may have confused warm-up song with entry song or starting line-up music. There were great suggestions for that as well, so I think we'll have to do that one next.
When the suggestions were added up, here are the finalists in alphabetical order. Enter Sandman by Metallica, Get Ready For This by 2 Unlimited, Rock You Like A Hurricane by The Scorpions and Welcome To The Jungle by Guns 'n Roses.
Have fun, make sure to vote and let the debates begin!
See You at the Rink!
