I have created four different samples of what I think would be bad ass. I tried to pick songs that are unique and have a "be scared of us" vibe.
My favourite is Bloodhound gang "Fire Water Burn". I can't see this ever working as the song drops the f-bomb a number of times but I could see it being a fan favourite. The chant at the end of the song reminds me of Chelsea Dagger but in a different way.
I hope everyone likes my ideas. I used to run music for a local team in my hometown so I have a burning passion for this type of stuff!

Bloodhound Gang had more than one song? well now that you brought it up, I would throw my vote behind The Bad Touch as our new goal song. I can't imagine a better way to taunt Flames opponents than the entire crowd miming butt slaps and pelvic thrusts at them.

Umm, to be blunt, there's a reason they're throwing out Duck Sauce. This is a hockey game, not a dance club.
With that logic, the same could be said about any genre.
This is a hockey game, not a rodeo.
This is a hockey game, not a rock concert. You get my drift.
I would rather have something upbeat and current than the same old out dated rock anthem. EDM is in hopefully the Flames go this direction.

You must love Ducksauce too...
But really, it's got no pump up to it, it's just a banal trance beat. I don't know, whatever you see in it, I don't I guess.
Actually I wasnt a fan of the song when it came out.. I didnt mind it when it was at the dome I got used to it.
You know you listen to too much dance music when you think something would be a good goal song (and sing-along song) just because it has four bars of melody.
Considering most of the suggestions so far and current goal songs consist of 3 power chords with "OHHHHHHHOOOHHHH" over it, I don't think it's that off base.

Hey, if you want the crowd to go "OHHHHHHHOOOHHHH" it makes sense to choose a song that actually has that in it, instead of expecting them to do it over a synthesizer.

I know that's what I mean. The song I posted after had "Oi!" over it. Perfect for chanting.
It just came out 10 minutes ago, but Shepard of Fire by Avenged Sevenfold would be awesome. It's new, it's rock, and it gets me pumped. Check it out on iTunes. You have to stream it since it's not technically released til the 27th.

How about skipping back way before the 80's and avoiding the antagonism of pop/metal/dance/trance etc.
Try Twist and Shout - start at around 1:33 with the guitar lead in to the screaming and then the chorus stop at about 2:01. It's got to be one of the ultimate catchy high energy, happy songs.
Simple and classic everyone has heard it. The fourth time you hear it at the game will be just as great for you and even more annoying for the other team and their fans than the first time.

I actually had a chance to listen to the real version prior to it being taken down. If you're curious the torrent for their full album hail to the king is out there.
Edit: Shepherd of fire - avenged sevenfold. Not the song I would pick but here's the proper link http://youtu.be/ulRfD2QGyPk. Sorry I can't embed, on my phone.
