According to TSN.ca, Neil Peart, renowned drummer of legendary rock band RUSH, will record a special rendition of "The Hockey Theme", the iconic theme song originally written by Dolores Claman in 1968.

In addition to assembling a team of top recording engineers and musicians to assist on the recording, Peart has commissioned DW Drums to create a special hockey-themed drum kit specifically for his unique version of the song.

Peart's version of the theme song will be used during NHL broadcasts on both TSN and RDS throughout the remainder of the NHL season. Details on when the song will debut will be announced at a later date.
