[Ziggy Stardust]

NHL '99, for the intro song and also the soundtrack that was composed by Jeff van Dyck.


Here's another awesome track he did for NHL '98's intro.

[Soedy]

2004 by far. 02, 10 and 14 were pretty good.

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

2004 and it's not even close. The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows, Minerva, Oh! Ellin, Chapter Four, etc.

 

[dylan pendergast]

I personally can’t name a favorite. anything from 1999 to 2014 is amazing

 

[CutOnDime97]

NHL 08 >>>>

 

[n00bxQb]

I'd probably say NHL 03, but they were all pretty good up until the PS4/XB1 generation. The past two have been ... not to my liking.

 

[Zats Muccarello]

NHL 08 >>>>

Came here to say this. That game put me on so many songs.

 

[Steazy Doo]

07 or 2005.

 

[Elvs]

2003 and 2004

 

[Tavares2Matthews]

I was actually listening to the 2008 soundtrack yesterday. I think 2004 and 2008 are my favourites.

I feel like the days of great NHL soundtracks are gone.

 

[Royal Canuck]

2004 is the best, no doubt about it.

I actually think '06 is right behind it though, with '08 close behind that.

 

[Ratboy]

2004

 

[BruinDust]

Loved the instrumental soundtrack of NHL 98.

 

[Beville]

Bar Tom Morello, this is a load of shit IMO.

Wouldn’t expect anything decent mind

 

[Hatfield]

Gary Clark Jr. is good. Don't know about the rest.

 

[Frosty415]

Nhl 96(pc)-NHL 2002

Were my top picks, mix of electronic/rock before they went all mainstream/emo

I loved when ea soundtracks were unique

 

[Hatfield]

NHLPA Hockey '93 theme.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

It's typically all trash. It's usually garbage rock that people who enjoy their steaks cooked well done enjoy to listen to.

I'm a metal loving, pink steak eating summa bitch. Thank you very much.

 

[NYR94]

Spent way too many nights in my dorm playing NHL 2000 and listening to this music over and over.

 

[izzy]

now my favorite colour is blue

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

I miss when you could stream music from your PC into various aspects of the game.

There were some remarkable playlists.

New Gen has all been quite horrendous.

 

[EdJovanovski]

2004 AINEC
The last several soundtracks have been awful, especially the super cringey "motivational" rap songs. I wish they'd consist of mostly decent rock songs, a few catchy trap songs replacing these rap songs that sound straight out of 2005, and a couple pop/EDM type songs (I mean like Diplo/Calvin Harris, not obnoxious dubstep)

 

[JJ68]

I'd personally make a Tragically Hip soundtrack. Because nothing goes better with Hockey.
