During the each of the last few springs, I've undergone a small personal project in which I compile playlists for each postseason. I also assign every team an individual song to capture the flavor of that team's season and potential postseason run. Notable past tracks include Howlin For You (The Black Keys) for the 2012 Stanley Cup Champion LA Kings, Welcome to the Black Parade (My Chemical Romance) for the 2014 Stanley Cup Champion LA Kings, and Runaway (Kanye West) for the 2015 Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks.
For 2016:
(EC1): Washington Capitals: In the Air Tonight (Phil Collins)
(EC2): New York Rangers: My Body (Young the Giant)
(EC3): Tampa Bay Lightning: Losing Touch (The Killers)
(EC4): Florida Panthers: Young Volcanoes (Fall Out Boy)
