The Sound of Hockey

Posted 1:09 PM ET | Comments 1

I found an old video of my jazz band days when we played "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music. It made me think about this season and post season. Sure I had to shoehorn a couple words in there, but hey I am a drummer not a singer. Feel free to sing aloud. Enjoy.

Blood clots in ankles and pucks into faces.
Power play gaffes that send Malkin off to the races.
The distant sound of brooms and thoughts of a early spring,
These are a few of my mosted hated things.

Penalty trouble and turnover disgraces.
Goals in the last minute leave coaches irritated.
Conspiracy theories about the reffing,
These are a few of my most hated things.

When Crosby scores...
When the game ends...
and the shootout starts...
That's when I think of these most hated things,
and that's when I feel real bad.

Five suspensions for stupid game actions.
The "Minister of Minus" gets another added.
A ten game losing streak gives fans a sting,
These are a few of my most hated things.

Games not in high def and local game blackouts.
Someone opens their mouth and ruins a shutout.
Another broken stick keeps us from winning,
These are a few of my most hated things.

When the buzzer sounds...
When the game ends...
and our hand shakes start,
That's when I think of these most hated things,
and that's when I feel real sad.
