Regarding the Sens using Righteous Smoke: The Flames used it in the game against the Islanders on September 17. The Sens played their first game at Kanata Tire on September 19. So, the Flames used it first.

Plus, there's the whole fire thing, which is slightly more appropriate for the Flames.

Please not Fallout Boy. I don't want to get both happy and annoyed every time the Flames score at home.

People just like to complain I think...you can't please everyone obviously when it comes to music.

"they all suck" comment is getting old...team listened to the fans and it looks like majority will rule, what more can we ask for?

Blackhawks's is not really a goal song and yet it's one of the most iconic goal songs in maybe not just hockey, but all of North America sports. Their goal song is part of their identity.

Besides, nothing can be worse than the Leafs using 'Harlem Shake' as a goal song for a few games.

Yeah, Chelsea Dagger is awesome as a goal song... it somehow manages to be a triple threat in that it's catchy, celebratory, and mocking all at the same time.

It's like the hockey version of "Ole".

By the way, I said they all suck cause I think they're all worse than Barbra Striesand. Well Righteous Smoke works decently so I'm not against it but the other ones are awful as goal songs.

I actually really like the Fall Out Boy tune, and think it would be great for montage's, etc, but it just sounds awkward as a goal song.

I thought initially I wouldn't really care as long as it wasn't The Dudes, but after voting over and over and over again for Sleep Now in the Fire, I guess I care more than I thought haha.

It sounds like rage against the machine is most popular. I really don't like rage, but I'm just really happy it's not going to be something "alberta" sounding, like nickleback.
I still think fire, fire by motorhead would have been perfect, but ya can't win em all!

Awesome, one of my favourite teen horror flicks from the Scream generation.

The thing I hated about the clip they showed for Righteous smoke is they cut it at least 5 seconds to short. At the islanders game the end portion played for awhile longer and IMO could turn into a decent crowd participation portion.

Actually that Rocky Mountain Living isn't terrible as a song.

The tempo is just a little too slow and the guitar needs to be more prominent, but the vocals are pretty sweet.

I hope you guys have each voted Rage at least 5 times today. Keep the jihad going strong!

I figure this would be as good a place to ask as any.

Does anyone know what the name of the maritime type song is they play at the saddledome every now and again? It has no words, i can't sing it to you and i couldn't even tell you what instrument they use.

That's it Strombad. My vote for the goal song. Thanks.

After listening to it, it would work better as a goal song if newfoundland had a team. Still a good tune though.

Doesn't fit right for a goal song, but works well during TV timeouts just before the play starts up again.

I guess I like "Light em up" the best.

None of the four options are anywhere close to "Shot down in Flames". Why did they even mess with such a good thing in the first place?

Very underwhelmed by the four choices. I will vote by not voting.
