Canucks

Hearts shattered
Open ice
Friendly smiles
Competitions vice

A tie, they say
A game well loved
How can we win
When peace is the ideal above

We slaughter them humanely 
We butcher them halal
Oil don't do well on our coast
And Orca's don't do well there

Are we better at entertaining than winning?
Now there's an original thought
We'd better burey the Oilers
Otherwise we'll get caught

Enjoyed your poem, Lia. I wish I knew more of the references so I could relate to it, but Canucks is a great title.
