"Hutson tallied his first NHL goal that night, scoring against the Ottawa Senators on an empty net in the final minute of the game. The sound of cheering from Capital One Arena nearly drowned everything else out, but underneath the screams, Hutson's song blared out: Jerry Lee Lewis' 'Great Balls of Fire.'"
"Me and Dubie were sitting in his kitchen...I get a text saying I have to pick a goal song, and we were going through songs, and that's what we went with."
"Once 'Great Balls of Fire' started playing, he could tell from Hutson's reaction that they'd found a winner. 'He just played me a bunch of songs...and then that one, he had a smile on his face, so that sounds like that's the one.'"
Cole Hutson made his NHL debut and chose a goal song, which he kept secret until after scoring his first goal against the Ottawa Senators. The song, Jerry Lee Lewis' 'Great Balls of Fire,' played during his goal celebration. Hutson collaborated with teammate Pierre-Luc Dubois to select the song, and Dubois noted Hutson's positive reaction when they found the right choice. Despite the song's age, it resonated with Hutson, marking a memorable moment in his early career.
