The U2 Intro actually dates back to the WCE Era in the early 2000s. I believe we started using it during the 2002-2003 season.
EDIT:
You can definitely hear it here as they step on the ice - Game 7, Round 2, 2003.
Always pictured this is exactly what you looked like! Glad I was right!
I want to say it was carried over from the World Juniors in the mid-late 2000s?Anyone know exactly when the fist bump train became a thing?
They used it as a brief intro song in that regular season game against the LA Kings where Harold Druken scored (April, 2000).I can 100% confirm that they started doing it during the WCE days. I went to a lot of playoff games.
Remember we used this as our goal song?NVM i'm going back year by year and they were doing this by the late 90s
What the actual f***.Dan Cloutier “he’s been lit up 11 goals in the last 39 shots”. f*** me lol
Remember we used this as our goal song?
Didn't Linden try to put a stop to it at some point? Something like, "Act like you've been here before."Anyone know exactly when the fist bump train became a thing?
I remember as a kid watching games in this era it definitely wasn't but now it seems completely normal but I'm not sure how that happened lol.
Also Sopel may as well have been Hughes in that clip wtf lol
Oh man Sopel, Ohlund, Klatt, May, Chubarov, Allen.... <3<3<3Dan Cloutier “he’s been lit up 11 goals in the last 39 shots”. f*** me lol
Sopel was ahead of his time. He was scapegoated badly hereAnyone know exactly when the fist bump train became a thing?

Yep same. Ruutu, Mayday, Cooke, Jovo, Malik. What an era lmfaoOh man Sopel, Ohlund, Klatt, May, Chubarov, Allen.... <3<3<3
I adored those guys.

Avs are way better imo.Yep same. Ruutu, Mayday, Cooke, Jovo, Malik. What an era lmfao
Wasted because we had f***ing Cloutier. Watching the present day Avs reminds me of the pre lockout Canucks because they have Georgiev who’s pretty much a modern day Cloutier.
I’d never thought you are a Sopel fanOh man Sopel, Ohlund, Klatt, May, Chubarov, Allen.... <3<3<3

I didn’t like Jovo at all either Lol.Avs are way better imo.
Ruutu and Cooke I loved until their final days where they became embarassing. Malik... no.
Jovo I wanted to love. I loved him as a Panther. but he became a nightmare in Vancouver. He was so dumb though... it was hilarious.
Also Baron was a perfect bottom pairing D
Crazy we wasted a blueline of this, with no success to show for it:
Ohlund-Sopel
Malik-Jovanovski
Allen-Salo
He made glaring errors often... but honestly the fans were so hard on him I think it made him nervous to screw up. Even live.I’d never thought you are a Sopel fan
Bruh you just said you liked JovoI didn’t like Jovo at all either Lol.
Avs are definitely better. And Cloutier was much worse than 4giev. Cloutier was getting lit up during the f***ing dead puck era that f***ing sieve.
