I ranked all 2022 NHL Goal Horns with my Twitch chat | Tier List

Absolutely brutal list bud

it’s crazy how the horns and songs sound so much better in the arena

Kraken fan here, it’s a pretty cool story regarding our horn: it’s the actual, physical horn from a retired ferry (M/V Hyak) that ran between Seattle and Bremerton for a solid 50 years. Its now mounted in the rafters at the CPA. It’s a very familiar sound on the Seattle waterfront, especially for those like me who made that commute regularly.

rangers goal horn in the garden is the definition of fired up

Even though I entirely disagree with this list, I do understand your reasoning. I was just going to mention that in a game scenario, the horns are actually good length since the songs should be playing when the players go back to fist bump the bench. That's my personal opinion

Vegas horn is literally a rip off of the avs horn and they’re ranked so far apart 😂😂

Fun fact about the Stars horn: They play the horn multiple times for their total score, meaning they do break up the long one. So, if the Stars scored their 4th goal, they sound the horn 4 times. Edit: Also, the Leafs horn is false advertising because no Leafs fan's dreams have ever come true.

For a lot of these horns, EGH cut off some parts so you could hear all the sections. For my favorite team, the Blues, the organ lasts like 20-30 seconds (and sounds better than this), then the song after lasts at least another 30 seconds, and the crowd chants the whole time. Love being in the building and hearing that horn. Also, the reason why the Blackhawks horn sounds so generic is because it was the original. Origins of NHL Goal Horns: https://youtu.be/ccelUnUP93E

i think the avalanche horn sounds better in person

The jets horn, air raid siren choice of music and the energy from the crowd from the goal makes it the best experience in the league * Winnipeg’s horn is an old CN Rail locomotive horn

A lot of these goal horns sound/look a lot better when you see them with actual goals. Like a clutch goal to win OT or something that makes the crowd go nuts that’s how you have to Tier them IMO

You got to be at a Columbus game to really feel how hype that horn is. The bang is an actual canon they have in the arena that they set off. Truly and great experience, atmosphere was crazy.

Dallas has the best horn. Hands down. If I'm not mistaken, this is the only goal song that was actually custom made in the entire league. It got introduced with their only cup run. Vinnie Paul (Pantera's drummer) got apparently asked to make a new song a day before the first round game against Edmonton. Just the story behind this track puts it up there. And Dimebag's shredding is god tier. Yes it is cheesy but it sure is powerful.

It seems like I always have a differing opinion when it comes to goal horns and goal celebrations in the NHL. So many people complain when a horn is blasted too long or the it sounds too loud or the repeated blasts are annoying... isn't that the point of the horn and the celebration? Like it's supposed to make noise and rattle the opposing team. I've heard so many people bash Washington's police siren and personally I think, "GOOD." It's awesome, unique, and it creates additional noise on top of the crowd and horn. Maybe it's just my thing of how I like everything to be loud but I dunno.

I know nothing about hockey, but loved the stream and endless chirping haha

Sharks horn sounds SOOOO much better in person. Shakes you to your damn core.

The avs horn definitely sounds better when you’re there

Idk, the Chelsea dagger that plays after the Blackhawk’s horn will always be fired up for me and annoying to every other team. Shame you didn’t hear it.

The best one in my opinion is the Calgary flames Goal Horn.

I think you just don't like horns in general. 2/3 of your criticisms were "horn is too long". Buffalo and Washington have different goal songs for each player on the respective teams Boston and Detroit have recordings of their horns, not the actual thing; you can tell the difference when you're live at the arena. Nashville's goal song was recorded by Tim McGraw - huge fan of the team - who offered to write the custom "Dunno what it is 'bout the Predators scoring" line, and the team rolled wit it.
