From that article I particularly enjoyed this:
ReplyDelete"'I’ll move on. I’m certainly not going to think about it again.'
Or will he?
'It won’t be forgotten,' said Ryan. 'We’ll talk about it later.'"
p.s. Welly had 3 pts (1G, 2A) tonight, was the game's first star, and nhl.com's second star of the night. I am lacking in the twitter area, so thought I'd inform you here, lest you complain once again that no one tells you anything.
Perhaps the 'Nucks will play the Stars:
ReplyDeleteIf they should win their final four,
And then the Hawks no more than two.
Do palm trees grow in Labrador?
The schedule says it could occur:
The Hawks will lose to Montreal,
And beat the Wings not more than once.
Are reindeer found in Senegal?
The Stars play only alsorans:
They've yet to beat the Avalanche,
A team they will be meeting twice.
Does Dallas really have a chance?
As of today damn right they do:
Is there a place called Timbuktu?
Whisky Jack
All The Way
ReplyDeleteThe teams that Vancouver might meet
Decidedly doesn't matter.
There's not a team the 'Nucks won't beat
Despite the cynical chatter.
So why the guarded optimism,
The fatuous fear the team might choke?
For others leave the skepticism;
And much bandwagon rage provoke.
Each Canuck has something to prove,
From Luongo to Oreskovich.
Each player's playing in a groove,
For each has found his hockey niche.
And have we not the twins Sedin
With Alex Burrows in between!
Chicken Chick
I dunno about rhyming Oreskovich and niche. It's an acceptable pronunciation, but an alternate pronunciation nonetheless. Madwag? Skeeter? What's your verdict on this one?
ReplyDeleteI have no qualms with rhyming Oreskovich and niche. Works just fine for me and it scans nicely too.
ReplyDeleteWorks for me. i prefer the former production with the rhetorical questions myself, but the rhyme's no crime. The use of a concluding couplet we've read before ( "Poetic Licence" ) is a trifle disappointing, although rhyming "Sedin" with "between" is definitely creatively clever. Perhaps the "chick" could have used, "They'll win the cup without a hitch," but "hockey niche" has its appeal, being somewhat original and not too much of a stretch. Restrained plaudits are warranted.
