3.) Seattle Kraken
The city of Seattle is known for numerous things. For one, they're a savvy business hub, with numerous corporations like Amazon calling the Emerald City home. It's also known for its coffee and past grunge music, which made it an American hit during the 1990s. So why not pay tribute through the NHL's newest hockey team?
For the Seattle Kraken, there isn't a better way to honor their city's culture than having Nirvana be a part of the goal horn. With "Lithium" blaring every time the Kraken scores a goal, it's a good horn that honors the past contributors from Seattle to America's diverse pop culture scene. It bounces between calm and intense, with hockey fans hearing just the intense part.
Granted, that intense part comes at the perfect time, hyping up the crowd while whisking them away on a nostalgia trip. However, it's the perfect homage to a city that has contributed more to American society than people realize. With Seattle getting more opportunities within the NHL, expect to hear this headbanger more often. That's especially true with Dave Hakstol being fired for being a toxic head coach.
