Hockey Night in Fort Wayne playlist

I have an hour's drive to work every morning, so my iPod gets a lot of use. Lately I've been mentioning on Facebook what CD I listened to. Today I said I was taking my Komets hockey night playlist for a test run to see whether it would match the length of the drive to games. (It's about three songs short.)

Of course, someone replied wanting to know what all was on the playlist. So, here it is in its current incarnation. It'll likely change throughout the season when I have a hankering for a particular song or hear something new that needs to be added.

2011-2012 game-night playlist

*Buffalo Sabres-inspired track
**Chicago Blackhawks-inspired track

The hour-long playlist is taken from a larger library of hockey-related songs compiled over the last 10 years or so. Some songs are directly related to the game, others are often heard on game night, and some are just audio yanked from various sources because it amuses me.
