Sabres players made some interesting choices for their 2022-23 goal songs

There is a developing trend in the NHL for teams to allow individual players to choose their goal songs instead of having one fixed song for the entire team.

The Buffalo Sabres are the latest team to jump on that, and on Thursday, just before their season opener against the Ottawa Senators, they revealed all of their players' choices.

Some of them are a little out there.

Here is the complete list, via the Sabres.

There are a lot of newer and current songs on the list, which makes sense given the young average age of the Sabres.

The ones that stand out the most?

Jeff Skinner going with "I Want to Dance With Somebody" is probably the funnest choice, followed by Victor Olofsson going with ABBA's "Gimme Gimme Gimme."

We also have Jacob Bryson going with "Narco" by Blasterjaxx and Timmy Trumpet. 

The wildest choice of them all? Well, that has to belong to defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin, who went with … "I Am a Gummybear."

Lyubushkin is not known at all for his offense and has scored just three goals in over 200 regular-season NHL games, so do not expect to hear it very often this season. Still, that is a choice.
