Tell us a team's entire history in the form of a Haiku

[sr edler]

A rat is a rat
Unless thrown on slippery ice
Then it is history

 

[sr edler]

Kansas City, huh?
What about Colorado?
Parking lot, Newark

 

[bigwillie]

Sharks:

Screwed out of Lindros
Nolan's gang overachieved
Thornton, Marleau choked

 

[quoipourquoi]

Wins two Stanley Cups
And eight Division Titles
Captain - Not GM

 

[Datsyukian Deke]

Gordie and Stevie
Saved by Mr. Mike Ilitch
Holland must depart.

 

[Hobnobs]

From Cougars to cups
Dead Wings emerged from darkness
Illitch and Steve saves

 

[VanIslander]

Red Army won most
Tarasov to Tikhonov
New Year's Eve Habs draw

 

[Dissonance]

Vancouver:

White towels, twins, rockets—
Brief respites from cruel heartbreak.
I blame Dale Tallon.

[sr edler]

Brought in four Blue lads
And won a Cup to US soil
The fun was over

 

[sr edler]

Cyclone, Nighbor, Cup
Ottawa got well played
Then stole Nighbor, heh

 

[tjcurrie]

A 'Next 6' franchise
Relocated to Texas
And it was a goal

 

[puckpilot]

Canucks

Got Perreault but no.
From Hodge to Lou saving grace.
Three times a bridesmaid.

Sid 'the kid' Crosby
Mario 'magnifique' Lemieux
Jagr Malkin too...lol?

 

[stl76]

Hall was amazing
no trip to finals since then
hope fail pain drink hope

 

[tarheelhockey]

Well, when they were good
They were very very good.
But when they were bad...

 

[sr edler]

Who is this Gretzky
High-sticked Gilmour, alright
But Brown won us Cups

 

[VanIslander]

Irbe upsets Wings!
Marleau 114 winners
Now a cup of Joes

 

[SealsFan]

Sid 'the kid' Crosby
Mario 'magnifique' Lemieux
Jagr Malkin too...lol?

We had dynasty
But nothing lasts forever
Except Wang & Snow

WINNIPEG JETS

Hull signed the huge cheque
Hawerchuk, Selanne scored
We now shout True North!

Tex's army, cups early
Longest drought, greatest party
Has-beens ever since

Thank you 66!
Won two Cups as a player
Won three as owner
