Mike Bossy
Mike Bossy died today.
One of the NHL's best
And a very humble man.
The team he played for,
The N.Y. Islanders, will be
Playing in Montreal tonight.
It is ironic in a way
Because Bossy grew up around here
And he would have loved to play for the CH
But they considered him to be
Too frail and they selected instead
A guy who turned out to be
Rather average.

Hockey is one of those sports where the guys are hell'a tough.
Sad to hear. RIP.
