The Love of Hockey

The slice of the skates creates
An atmosphere of greats
They fly on the ice
Not the least bit of nice
A game of ego awaits.

Your limerick brings back memories of the "Broad Street Bullies" of the mid-seventies. That was the last time Philadelphia saw their home team win a Stanley Cup.

Probably one of the most action-packed but dangerous sports we can watch, Kristen. My late husband and I never missed going to see the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. This is a terrific entry for Royal's sports contest. Wishing you luck! Love, Carolyn
