The Toronto Maple Leafs held their final practice of their regular season opener. Fraser Minten and Noah Gregor earn spots in the opening-night lineup. It had been rumored during training camp and then later confirmed by Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment that a brand new goal song would debut on Wednesday. When Toronto Maple Leafs forward Noah Gregor scored his team's first goal of the game in a 6-5 shootout victory against the Montreal Canadiens, a Steve Aoki remix of Kid Cudi's 'Pursuit of Happiness' blared throughout Scotiabank Arena, doing away with the club's previous goal song of 'You Make My Dreams' by Hall & Oates.

"I didn't even remember that it didn't even register," Matthews said after the game. "I'll have to give it a listen again later tonight." Some players had input in the song. Like Matthews, Marner also didn't notice the change at the time. "It's a hell of a song, so I like it," Marner said of the change. One player who didn't weigh in on the decision to change the song was 33-year-old Maple Leafs captain John Tavares. "I don't think that's my specialty," he said with a smile. "I know when to stay in my lane, I guess." The Maple Leafs intend to use a few different goal songs. The current one will be used for most games. A throwback tune will debut on 'Throwback Thursday' games and another tune will debut for the 'Next Gen' games "We want to hear it a lot," Tavares added. "It sounded good to me."
