I love the opening to this song, and I think it would make for a strong anthem after a Maple Leaf goal.
The first twenty seconds in particular are electric, with those crackling drum kicks.
Then, the organist can fade it out smoothly on the guitar riff that starts at 0:20, or if they want a longer snippet, let it play to 0:37 and fade it out there.
Plus, Rush is a Toronto band which counts for something.
What do you all think?

No it should be Skinnamarink
What could be more relevant in 2024 than an ancient Rush song?
PA-NA-MA!
I don’t care that he’s from Montreal, the Leafs need to get the rights from WWE to use Sami Zayn’s theme song.
Rush is one of my all time favourite bands, but I don’t know if they make for good goal songs. I wouldn’t hate it though.
RIP Neil Peart
Great song, not a great goal song
Considering the heat of the bright lights in Toronto, and the pressure on the core this year in particular, it might do them well to hear Rush’s Limelight instead.
2012!
I would love a rush song. IMO Limelight or Tom Sawyer
Tarzan Boy – Baltimora
So we complained all last year about the stale goal song. It was changed. Now we are asking for a new goal song. Okay.
50 Mission Cap or bust, IMO. Canadian as fuck band. Ontario as fuck band. Catchy ass riff. It’s literally about the Leafs.
