We have a winner!

This just came from my mom over email:


Forget the nuclear family, we have here the epitome of the hockey family. Matt's a hockey fanatic, but Michelle eclipses even him, having been playing since she was three years old. Seriously--three years old. I've seen her play, and it's a pretty awesome sight, especially when she's on the ice with my brother and his friends who have really only been playing for a few years, and who are (in at least one case) still figuring out how to skate.

Looks like the torch is getting passed from mother to daughter.

I just hope she doesn't grow up to be a Canadiens fan. Matt would need to undergo some serious therapy.

That may be the ultimate
Canadian family portrait.

Hello out there, were on the air
it's hockey night tonight!
The tension grows,
the whistle blows,
and the puck goes down the ice.
The goalie jumps,
and the players bump,
and the fans all go insane.
Someone roars:
"Bobby Scores!"
At the good old hockey game!


Oh!
The good old hockey game!
Its the best game you can name!
And the best game you can name,
is the good old hockey game!

Second Period.
Where players dash,
with skates a-flash,
the home team trails behind.
But they grab the puck,
and go bursting up,
and their down across the line.
They storm the crease,
like bumblebees,
and they travel like a burning flame.
We see them slide the puck inside,
its a one- one hockey game!


Oh!
The good old hockey game!
Its the best game you can name!
And the best game you can name,
is the good old hockey game!

Third Period.
Last game in the play-offs too.
Oh take me where the hockey players
face off down the rink,
And the Stanley Cup,
is all filled up,
for the champs who win the drink!
Now the final flick,
of a hockey stick,
and a one gigantic scream:
"THE PUCK IS IN! THE HOME TEAM WINS!"
At the good old hockey game


OH!
The good old hockey game!
Its the best game you can name!
And the best game you can name,
is the good old hockey game!
