Hurricanes' goal song vote includes 'Brass Bonanza'
The Carolina Hurricanes might turn back the clock this season.
The club is holding a fan vote for their 2018-19 goal song, and a modern version of "Brass Bonanza" - the iconic tune of the Hartford Whalers - is one of the options.
The Whalers relocated to Carolina in 1997.
Tom Dundon, who became the Hurricanes' majority owner in January, hasn't been shy about wanting a throwback presence at PNC Arena, as one of his first moves was making Whalers gear available for purchase at home games.
"Brass Bonanza" was certainly a fan favorite. Heck, even Chris Pronger, who spent two seasons in Hartford, admitted to humming it.
"Oh yeah! That's a very iconic goal song," he laughed in an interview with theScore last November.
Despite the song's history, it faces some stiff competition in this fan vote.
