"Hockey Sock Rock" is a song written and produced by Alan Thicke, as a publicity tool for the New York Rangers and the NHL in 1979, as Rangers president Sonny Werblin worked to make the Rangers more hip in disco-era New York City; the proceeds of the recording went to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. It was released on Platinum Records 1217-75. Ranger Dave Maloney later said that supposedly, the record went on to sell over 100,000 copies; yet 90,000 of the sales could be attributed to Gordon Lightfoot, as he was a friend of Thicke's.
