The Fratellis: Chelsea Dagger

Today's Saturday musical selection is a no-brainer for me, it's the Fratellis' "Chelsea Dagger." Although other sports teams use it, it's become the unofficial theme song of the Stanley Cup Champion Blackhawks. As for myself, it became permanently embedded within my head after a Blackhawk four goal Game 6 in last year's conference semifinals against Vancouver Canucks, who are not fans of the song. Canuck defensman had this to say after a reporter played it for him:
Worst song in hockey. I don't even want to listen to it anymore. I was in the press box last game in Chicago, and I heard it six times -- and I was cringing every time. So we all know about that song in this room -- and we all hate it.
