I am not a huge AC/DC fan, as in I don't own any of their records, and they aren't on my rotation. I don't hate them, just never really got into them.

I do think TNT works well as a goal song though. There are certainly worse options out there. Last season, I was looking through my collection and didn't really find anything that I would say is better as a goal song while also being universally recognizable. I was also surprised a little while ago when I saw an article about songs athletes like to listen to to get pumped up, and there was a lot of AC/DC on it. I guess they are still pretty relevant. There were 2 or 3 Washington players that use AC/DC as their personal goal songs. I also think with the JG-Monny-Tkachuk era over, it is probably time for a change. I kind of associate that goal song with them.

I like Gallick's suggestion above. Someone with connections, please send that to whomever makes it happen. And yes, I think "Yahooooo" should probably be retired too.
