Winnipeg Jets pick Jump by Van Halen as new goal song

We learned last month that the Jets would be choosing a new goal song for the 2016-17 season.  Prior to this season they used “Hell Yeah” by Rev Theory and then last season they used “Shout” by the Isley Brothers.  Perhaps the former song was too contemporary (2008) and the latter song was too old (1959).

So what would make sense?  Somewhat fittingly, with the Heritage Classic approaching, the team chose to go with an all-time classic for Jets 1.0 fans in choosing Jump by Van Halen.

Last night we didn’t just hear it once but five times. How do you feel about the new goal song that was picked for the Winnipeg Jets?

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
