It's sad that Green Day and NHL have a partnership but in the brand new NHL 21 there is no GD songs...

 

That partnership is with NBC (tv network) and the NHL. Not EA sports.

Is Green Day still affiliated? Because it start tonight!

They have a two year deal so they still should be involved. I saw a promo news bit on it today and it had FOB as background music though haha

The deal is with NBC, so... 

I'll be watching the Blackhawks/Lightning game tonight (go hawks - who are totally gonna get their asses handed to them), so I'll check back in if I hear any GD songs in the broadcast vids.

Just used the intro to FOA for the outro after the flyers/pens game ended.

I’m pretty sure the agreement is for using Green Day music in highlight reels and throughout nhl arenas during games. Outside of that they have nothing to do with hockey unless they are performing at one of the “special” events - which won’t happen this season as it’s shortened to 56 games.

Yes!!!!
I just put on my Toews sweater/jersey! It’s comical how HUGE it is on me now (I’ve lost a good amount of weight).

Damn, maybe I need to start watching hockey LOL. Two of my best friends in college were hockey players but I never got into it. But yeah, between Green Day and those great hockey player butts that @Squashie let me in on, I guess I should become a fan. 🤣

What happened to you, Hawks?

You used to be cool.

Well when you're #1 goaltender is Subban and that he is literally defended by parking cones and pylons you can't go far.
And Toews doesn't play lol.

Oh if only I could pinpoint the one thing...

Bad contracts, injuries (Toews and Seabrook are both out), cup winning goalie is gone (didn't resign him), inexperienced goalies who are not... good, Keith is "old" by sport standards, bad drafting, HORRIBLE trades...

It's gonna be a rough season (or few). It's a full rebuild.

Toews is out for illness there fore he CAN'T play. And it's not COVID. He is undergoing tests to figure out what it is.

Yeah exactly.
Honestly the Central Division isn't fair. Bolts gonna win a lot of game. It's easy when you're in the same division as Hawks, Panthers and Detroit. I hope some teams like the Jackets or the Hurricanes gonna give some challenge.
 

As for the North Division (canadian division) holy shit the battle will be hard. Except Ottawa, I can see every teams doing the playoffs. Sadly it's only the best 4 in each division who will make it.

I don't really know sports :lol: I haven't really kept up since my step dad passed. Sometimes I would watch the games with him and he'd keep me updated while I made silly jokes :P

My fandom is more like Hawks are Chicago, hooray!! I know the Hawks haven't been doing well though 😕

Oups ahaha I'm a canadian so when it's time to talk about hockey I don't even think if you know hockey or not. I'm just going on and on and on 😂

So I wasn't watching: was there any Green Day last night aside from the little bit of FOA?

Just clips of songs on the NBC broadcast. The guys themselves aren't on any broadcast/at the game(s). It's a usage-rights deal for music with the occasional appearance at a special event. I.E. all star game and maybe an outdoor game (neither are happening this season due to COVID and it being 56 games vs the normal 82).

It was going to be a shit season for the hawks regardless of division. They are in a rebuild - confirmed by the organization (which apparently pissed off Kane and Toews from what I hear from some insiders).

Yeah, I knew it would just be songs but I was curious about what they played. Thanks!

There won't be fans and the announcement was under the radar. It's not a spectacle like the Winter Classic.

FOAM songs - but just the instrumental bits. No words.

Better than nothing though. I figured it would be FOAM.

I'm honestly looking more for who is doing the in-studio intermission stuff than what songs are being played :eyebrows:
