Did anybody happen to watch that hockey game on Thursday night?
Hats off to “Chantal Kreviazuk” who started things off right
Changing the lyrics of our “National Anthem” for “Donald Trump” to understand
By singing “true patriot love that only us command”!
That was in protest of “Trump’s” babbling of “Canada” becoming the 51st state
The fact that this game was in “Boston” made it all great
Once the opening ceremonies were complete it was time to play
Dropped the puck at center ice while the crowd was yelling “U.S.A., U.S.A., U.S.A.”
No fights eight seconds in like the game before
As much as I like a good bout, I’m glad there wasn’t an encore
The teams stuck to hockey and the game could have gone either way
With the championship on the line , both sides made some great plays
Canada’s “MacKinnon” opened up the scoring and got the first one
“Brady Tkachuk” tied it up before the first period was done
“Jake Sanderson” would score for the “Americans” to take a 2-1 lead
“Sam Bennett” would tie it up for “Canada” thanks to a great “Mitch Marner” feed
The third period was great but neither team would score
This meant we would be going to overtime and there would only be one more
The greatest current hockey player would live up to his role
It would be “Connor McDavid” that would score the winning goal
Once again it was “Marner” who would set him up
This would lead to “Canada” winning the “4 Nations Cup”
I am so excited at the fact that we won this game
I insist however in bringing up another name
We wouldn’t have even come close to accomplishing this feat
If it wasn’t for “Jordan Binnington” we would have went down in defeat
This goaltender frustrated the “Americans” time and time again
He is the only reason we continue our reign
He stood on his head as everyone observed
All these accolades I preach are well deserved
Congratulations to “Team Canada” being successful in their quest
Some of them had to play their next regular season game with less than 2 days rest!
