As far as I’m concerned, the bigwigs over at CBC Sports have done yet another injustice to their sports programming that, in my opinion, continues their decent as a viable programming option on TV today.

First with the firing of Chris Cuthbert, then the loss of the CFL and now losing their staple Hockey Night in Canada theme, about all that’ll keep me coming back is future Canuck game coverage and 2008 Olympic events (they lost out on the 2010 and 2012 games to Bell and Rogers respectively).

Boy, Scott Moore really has his finger on the pulse that is target demographic and viewership interest.

Personally, I could care less who holds the rights to the Hockey Theme. While not larger than the game itself, the theme’s as close to a national anthem as we could get. It is, in my opinion, synonymous with hockey before any particular network.
