John Amirante Stanley Cup Finals Game 7 National Anthem 

Love how everyone is coming here to honor John. It was the first video I watched as well when I heard the news. Rest in Peace, Mr. Amirante

I've talked to someone who worked in MSG at that game, he said the mic volume was up as high as it is for concerts, which is louder than your typical game anthem. They could've blown the speakers out and the crowd would've outdone it.

Sadly, MSG has priced so many of those AMAZING fans out of the Garden. I would give anything to recapture this incredible energy.

If this song doesn't give you goosebumps, you don't bleed blue!!!!

Maybe the greatest atmosphere of any sporting event ever!! You can hear the fans begging, PLEADING, for a win to break the curse!! I've never seen any sporting event either on TV or in person that has topped the atmosphere in the Garden that night--absolutely incredible!!

R.I.P John Thanks for this memory I will never forget this night . I just wish our country still had this love for our Nation anthem like we did this night !

RIP Mr. Amirante :(

I was at this game, I was 9 years old…I’m 39 now n can’t even comprehend wut I witnessed…wen the rangers won I was lifted in the air n passed around like a beach ball…don’t think I’ll ever be a part of sumthing this wild again 🤯🙌🏿

Im lucky to be 1 of 22,000 people who experienced this 4-5 minutes that will forever be part of my soul. Make no mistake, it was deafening loud when the clock read 0:00 and we won, but these 4 minutes were a sound you felt.

He might as well have not been singing because you can't hear anything. This is amazing to watch, I so wish I was there. Goosebumps.

I will never forget my father getting his cousins tickets for Game 7 agains the Devils in the Conference Finals one of the greatest games ever. That night was almost as loud during the national anthem but when I saw this on tv at 13 years old I literally was in tears and so pumped. Still one of the greatest nights of my early teen years was celebrating my Blueshirts winning the cup. I just wish they can get one for Hank. Also have John's autograph on a Rangers hat signed that year during the 94 season. Of course my dads cousin would not give up the tickets for this game! But the memories of course as Sam say last a lifetime.

Rest in Peace Mr. Amirante. Thanks for this memory which will last more than a lifetime!

I got goosebumps all over again. Just like I’m back in 94.

So nuts how loud it was. Would have loved to have been there. Just had my friend's father telling me about his experience at this game...insanity!

RIP John. One of the greatest to ever sing the Anthem.

moves one to tears

Always special when John Amirante sang the anthem at MSG. I think I saw his last performance in Feb. during the Ratelle ceremony. A true legend - RIP John.

A moment in my life I will never forget. Thanks for the memories....RIP John.

I still get goosebumps. Loudest crowd I can remember. I had the pleasure of sitting next to Mr. Amirante and his wife on the lirr after a game many years ago. He will be missed. RIP

25 years ago today. Thanks OP for this memory. Beyond Messier raising the Cup, this is always what will come to my mind remembering this night. I have still never seen an arena drown out an anthem singer like this since.

"OHHHHH CAAAN-A-DA" (Lets Go Rangers!)

I can't believe there were 4 people who gave this video a thumbs down. Vancouver fans, perhaps because this gives me goosebumps to watch!

R.I.P John Amirante. Thanks for the memories.

My Father and Cousin were at this game. What an amazing night. I have had a really blessed life and have seen, done and achieved some amazing things. However, This night was the number one experience in my life until my Son was born in 2012. I was 19 and had never experienced the celebration in the streets of my team winning a championship. Up until that point It was the greatest night of my life. It was so unexpected, I will never forget it. Forever the best. RIP in peace John.

I was there that night, will never forget how loud it was throughout the game. John was as much of the tradition as anyone. In complete awe as I watch this! RIP John.

Here on June 14, 2021. 27 years later, this still gives me total goosebumps. It was an incredible night. John Amirante will forever be in our hearts

RIP John Amirante - thank you for the memories over the years at the Garden.

Nobody can make more noise than a new yorker.

Those were hopes and dreams being poured out

RIP John Amirante!! The National Anthem before big games at MSG won't be the same without you!!

June 14, 1994. One of the happiest days of my entire life. I will never, ever forget the greatness of that experience. Having been a Rangers fan my whole life and waiting for that special night. We all knew it was going to happen, too. We just didn't know how. And yes, I do get chills watching Amirante. Ranger crowds always drowned him out in big games, but NOTHING like that night. He always did the Anthem justice, too. Great singer.

Thank you Mr. Amirante. A legend for our Blueshirts.

One of the most memorable things was that attempt at singing the anthems. NO FAN BASE ANYWHERE COULD EVER TOP THAT! That's what makes Rangers fans among the most dedicated and faithful in the NHL.

Incredible how it just got louder and louder!

RIP John! I've watched this video probably about 50 times, and it still gives me chills each time. I hope the Rangers honor him with a banner in the rafters at MSG.

Thanks for the memories, RIP

RIP John, thank you for all the memories.

i was at this game, and this still gives me chills.

It was a great night to be a Rangers Fan in MSG!!! I was there!!! Nothing will ever top it!!!

What a legend. Watching the game on MSG right now and had to watch John sing the anthem again. Amazing rendition

I remember that day like it was yesterday, RIP John I really hope I can hear the garden get that loud again but will never get as loud as it was for you in "94" Let's Go Rangers

Goosebumps every time. RIP

Every time I watch this video I get non-stop goosebumps

Rip John. They will stand on your shoulders forever.

The single most greatest unforgettable moment not only in NHL history but all of sports history that will last a lifetime like the results of this final game in 1994.

Still gives me goose bumps amazing !

17 years ago and it still gives me goosebumps

Forever, John Amirante. And also forever a part of one of my favorite National Anthem performers. Jim Cornelison and Wayne Messmer for the Chicago Blackhawks (my team), Rene Rancourt for the Boston Bruins, and singers Davis Gaines and Pia Toscano for the Los Angeles Kings.

I witnessed this at a friends house......the feeling was indescribable.

My favorite moment of John Amirante. I'm very fortunate that his most famous rendition of the national anthem included my favorite lines of my favorite national anthem: "With Glowing Hearts, We See Thee Rise "The True North Strong and Free "From Far and Wide, O Canada "We Stand on Guard For Thee" I plan to play this every year on July 1.

I was there and it was truly amazing. John could have been singing rock lobster and no one would have known. It was so loud I had a headache from yelling before the puck dropped.

That made me cry. Awesome memories! THANKS!!!!

I've been waiting forever for this to be on RU-vid. Amazing.

MSG will be even louder for the first game back with fans. Absolutely deafening.

Completely drowned out. Place was up for grabs.

John - you will forever be a Rangers institution. All fans who ever saw you perform the National Anthem will forever love and remember your renditions as the best and most rousing we ever heard. One of the most remarkable voices. Ranger fans everywhere celebrate your memory.

Those were the days!

Best night of my life! Section 409. Row D. Seat 14. Thank you NY RANGERS!!!!

R.I.P. Mr. Amirante. You are and always will be a True Rangers Legend!!!!

For those who watched the men's ice hockey gold medal game between Canada and the United States at the Salt Lake City Olympics, the CBC broadcast the national anthems. Nearly five million, 4.957 million watched Game 7, the most-watched CBC Sports program until the 10.6 million for Canada winning their first Olympic ice hockey gold medal since 1952.

Thanks for the great memories John. You were a true Rangers Legend. Madison Square Garden will remember you forever. R.I.P.

Still gives me chills. I watched it on TV that night at my home in Brooklyn but it felt like I was there. The energy in all 5 boroughs and beyond was electric that night.

This man taught me the national anthems. Thank you John we miss you

@fastfootedone awesome series.... Best in a long while thats for sure!

This will get you jacked up

RIP the garden will never be the same

RIP John Amirante, a Rangers legend.

this video give me chills... thank you for uploading this man my favorite vid on youtube

I like how you put exclamation points after all your words. It's funny as hell. It cracks me up. And I agree with you. I! CAN'T! HEAR! A! DAMN! THING! It's crazy loud.

Wow. Got goosebumps watching this!!

Goosebumps, every. Single. Time. R.I.P. John Amirante. The 🐐. LETS GO RANGERS!!!!!

RIP, Legend.

this brings back exciting, but painful memories, as a Canucks' fan.... SO CLOSE!! love the anthem at MSG..... amirante and the organ are a great combo!

This was my 1st year with season tickets. The building was shaking during the national anthem, you couldn't hear Amirante in the crowd. Was a surreal moment, and game, the We Want the Cup chants were LOUD as well.

I was at Game 7 against the Devils, but my cousin went to this one with my dad because his father had recently passed away.

RIP John Amirante, the "voice of the NY Rangers". I remember this night like it was yesterday. Next to the day I married my wife, it was the second best day ever - so glad I was there helping to make that ruckus!

One of the greatest moment of my sports fan life. RIP to the greatest national anthem singer of my lifetime

We were non stop that night. So many chants we had, but the anthem was memorable, we didn't stop screaming.

Thank you John. R.I.P.

It's the earliest memory I have in my life. Going to a Rangers vs. North Stars. I'll never forget his voice. LGR!!!!

This gets me so pumped up

What a night and what a tremendous memory!!!!

Seriously gutted by the news. Other than Messier hoisting the Cup, this is my favorite memory of that game. I still have never heard an anthem drowned out like this. Thanks for the 30 years of memories John. I literally grew up having you open up my Ranger games every night and they won't be the same without you.

Getting chills listening to it now

Amazes me to think my grandparents, uncle and great grandfather went to this game. Wasn't even born yet but I can't even imagine what this experience must have been like!! I went to game 5 of Rangers Capitals which was the second round this year but that would never beat Game 7 of the 1994 Stanley Cup Finals

RIP!! A true class act!!

Rest In Peace! ❤️ #RangersForever

there is never gonna be another moment like this ever in all of hockey, not just the rangers....the only other night at the garden i can think of where the energy and the atmosphere were overwhelming like this was messier night and that was just a fraction of this.

Is it normal to absolutely fucking start crying every single time the Star Spangled Banner starts when I watch this video? #LGR

GAME 7 THURSDAY BABBBYY!!!!!

One of the greatest moments in history of MSG of not the greatest

RIP John Armirante this one will last forever....

I was there!!!!

RIP John. You were one of a kind

I remember this like it was yesterday. You couldn’t even hear him over the crowd. Rip mr Amirante. I know the Canadian national anthem Bc of you

Goosebumps..

Beloved John Amirante is a LEGEND.

Was there that night and couldn't hear a thing. Still can't hear it watching this video. LOL

RIP LEGEND
