It’s Hockey
Night in Canada
Leafs losing, Habs on a roll.
Could be ’64,
could be today
Hockey is engraved
on our soul
The nation is
enthralled
The high
church of Saturday Night
Bob Cole
intones the blessing
Nothing stops
the fun but the fights
Bob says
“It’s all happening here”
And you know
it is for sure
Even better,
when he says “Oh Baby!”
Everyone gets
a beer
The best is
an Original Six game
Tied, halfway
into the third
Every power
play is a potential game ender
The guy in
the box is a turd
Shootouts can
be satisfying
If they go on
and on
But since
they ruled out the dipsy doodle,
The magic
seems to be gone
Overtime is
fun,
but an empty
net is best
Why wait
until a minute to go
When you can
do a test
Pull your
goalie at 3 minutes
The way
Patrick Roy likes to do
See the odds
work in your favour
You could
score one, maybe two
It’s Hockey
Night in Canada
Leafs losing, Habs on a roll.
Could be ’64,
could be today
Hockey is engraved
on our soul
