Jonathan Quick is finally in position to enjoy the New York Rangers goal song.

The veteran goalie, now a three-time Stanley Cup champion, twice with the Los Angeles Kings and last season with the Vegas Golden Knights, will have open ears at Madison Square Garden every time the arena strikes up "Slapshot," but the lion's share of the lyrics are printed right there on his goalie mask.

The Rangers showed off new buckets for Quick and Igor Shesterkin this week and the backplate of Quick's stood out as it simply reads "HEY!" five times in all capital letters.

"Slapshot," written by Garden music director Ray Castoldi and performed by the band Bad Apple goes heavy on the heys - there are 40 of them in the 97-second tune broken up into eight groups of five. In each group there are beats between the first two heys, then three straight, which must be what caught the attention of Quick's son, Carter.

"I let my kids do the backplate so that's what my son came up with," Quick said of the helmet. "He likes the goal song so that was his pick."

It won't be the first time Quick will be happy to hear a song littered with the word hey. The Kings goal song, "Power Ride" by Fred Coury, also uses the word with impunity.
