Canada Wins Men's Hockey Olympic Gold in Sochi 2014

T’was the morning of hockey and all through the land

All the people were cheering and waving their hands

The men played like the women, and carried the game

And won the Gold medal – as was their main aim!!

On this morning of hockey, beer and bacon in hand

The country of Canada stood with their men

In groups or alone they were glued to TV

And waited in agony to see what would be…

Their penalty kill team did its job well

And kept the Swedes skating while awaiting the bell

We cheered and we waited and agonized so

When the Swedes shot on Price but there was no goal.

Toews showed us his skill with that sneaky tip in

That caught Lundqvist off guard and started the win

And Crosby’s breakaway added another good one

And Kunitz made three and Canada won!

The team was in synch and managed to hold

The Swedes to a zero and out in the cold

The game was exciting, fast, clean and good play

And we’ll play all again 4 years from today! 

Way to go Canada!!!!
