Hippy Challenge: Name your favorite next Wings player theme song

So remember how good the Wings’ hockey DJ used to be with player name tunes? Shanahan’s Jig. Wooley’s Wooley Bully tune; Now all I know is Cleary’s ‘I can see clearly now,’ Sunshiny Day tune, nice try but having lost a few players we need more.

Sure we have the “Hold Me” song for holding, “Get over it” when we’re trying to get over a bad goal, but I’m talking player-specific tunes.

I’m calling out the Kuklas Korner readership, soliciting clever ideas for future theme songs our trusty Wings DJ (Paul: Got his name?) should play for whenever a certain active player on our roster is worth noting for a goal, fight, over otherwise.

I’ll open the bidding:

Why aren’t they playing the Hossa Hossa Hossa Hossa! song?

Another,

Doh’ bad embed.

Puck - I think Happy Days belongs to Happy Hudler. It would annoy him. That pleases me.

For Franzen, “Give the Mule What He Wants” (by QotSA): Queens of the Stone Age - Give the Mule What He Wants

Or, “Get Behind the Mule” by Tom Waits: Tom Waits - Get Behind the Mule

So it is, Ericksson officially gets Convoy.

Paul it’s up to you to let the Wings’ DJ (you never did get us his name) know about OUR decision.
