Blue & Green are all I see, on my beloved Team
Black and Yellow our history, Flying skate we used to be
Our favourite Jersey
Many Years low, so rising now and beyond, I imagine
Front Office calculates the lines of reason
Push the salary cap, watch it bend
Overthinking, office analyzing separate the heart from the mind
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Admit my fault and see the wisdom of the New F.O.
Feed my will to feel the moment drawing way outside the lines
Blue & Green are all I see, on my beloved Team
Black & Yellow our history, Flying Skate we used to be
Our favourite Jersey
There is so much more
And beckons me to look through to these infinite possibilities
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
Drawn outside the lines of reason
Push the envelope, watch it bend
Overthinking, over analyzing, separates my wisdom from Hive Mind
Withering my intuition leaving... opportunities behind
Feed my will to feel this moment
Urging me to cross the line
Reaching out to embrace my fandom
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come
I embrace my, desire to
I embrace my, desire to
Feel my fandom, to feel connected
Enough to step aside and embrace the F.O.
To feel inspired
To fathom the power
To witness the beauty
To bathe in the fountain
To swing on the spiral too
Swing on the spiral too
Swing on the spiral,
Of our mediocrity
And still, be a Canucks Fan
(and now comes a stanza that gives me a hard-on the size of the Alaskan Panhandle)
With my feet upon the ground,
I lose myself
Between the sounds
and open wide to suck it in
I feel it move across my skin
I'm reaching up and reaching out
I'm cheering for the fandom of my Canucks
And whatever this Team will be
Whatever this Team can possibly be
And following our will and wind, we may just go where no one's been
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been
Spiral out, keep going
Spiral out, keep going
Spiral out, keep going
Spiral out, keep going

Memes to come later tonight...
Lineups to come tomorrow, when the text version from NHL.com is released, as I cannot use dailyfaceoff jersey lineups due to the image limit now being 15 instead of 50. I have submitted a request to return to 50 on the Main Board Thread.
