Before we begin this season, I am not a religious man, but here's to hoping...
A Hockey Player’s Prayer
Our Father who art in the rink,
Hockey be thy name.
Thy will be done, the Cup will be won
On ice, as well as in the stands.
Give us this day, our hockey sticks
And forgive us our penalties
As we forgive those who cross-check against us.
And lead us not into elimination
But deliver us to victory.
In the name of the fans
And thy holy sport.
Amen!
