How Did Your Team's Goal Scoring Sounds Rank?

Ranking all 30 NHL teams' goal songs

5 Anaheim Ducks
  • The horn might be the best in the league—a short toot followed by what sounds like crashing glass and a police siren. Hey, anarchy is good. Pennywise's “Bro Hymn” with the Misfits-inspired “whoa-oh-oh-oh” chorus is perfect for the post-celly sing along.
13 Los Angeles Kings
  • After a couple of short bursts from that high-pitched train horn and a quick cut from Randy Newman's “I Love L.A.” the Staple Center celebration kicks into gear with a tune that packs all the raw power, the naked emotion and the street cred that you'd expect from a song written by the guy who used to play drums in Cinderella. Not that it's bad—in fact it's perfectly serviceable, with a couple of “heys” and enough time between 'em to pull a swig or two from your beer. But it could be played anywhere—there's nothing that makes it distinctively Los Angeles. Of course, compared to what Detroit trots out that may not be such a bad thing . . . . .
29 San Jose Sharks
  • This might be the manliest goal horn in the league—if Liam Neeson had a boat, this is what it would sound like just before he rammed your ship broadsides. But that Casio version of “Rock and Roll Part 2”? Maybe they'd be better off politely reminding the crowd to applaud after goals.
