Columbus Blue Jackets: Dalpe and Brown Pay Tribute to Gord Downie

Columbus Blue Jackets forward Zac Dalpe‘s musical prowess is pretty well known and he was joined by Tony Brown to put on a performance of The Tragically Hip’s “Wheat Kings” on Wednesday as a tribute to late singer Gord Downie.

The song was played beautifully and adding Dalpe’s surprisingly good singing voice resulted in a solid performance of the song as a whole.
