Oh no...
You’re not suggesting that Jari Kurri might be the person who could rescue the Oilers, are you? He has next to nothing to do with the medals Team Finland has won, his position as a GM is almost purely ceremonial. The coaching staff is appointed by Kalervo Kummola and the players are selected by the coaching staff.
You non-believers
will shed many frozen tears
when Kurri can’t help

As an aside, a few years ago, I posted a full summary of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan as a series of haikus — ten or twelve of them in all — on the Television Without Pity forums, and I really wish I still had them. It was awesome.

Oilers’ new first line:
Gagner, Nilsson, Patty O?
These lines aren’t that short.

Edmonton’s goalies:
Handle the puck, make us laugh.
Each “save”, make us cry.

Lottery pick time
Tambo to the Podium
Who the hell’s “Steve Kelly?”

Your 2010 Oilers: The Ballad of OTC
Horcov’s bum shoulder
Maginot’s drinking problem
And Studly’s glass wrist
Hemmer gets abused
Pouliot’s damned “pubis thing”
And Steady Steve’s head
Laco’s busted neck
Jones’ knee, we hardly knew ye
Red Ox beaned, alas
Brule’s got the flu
Zorg watches from upstairs while
Thecaptain still skates
Callups left and right
Plante, Arsene, Chorney, Motin
U of C goalie?!
Acid blotter for squat
Lubo fetches us something
Staios to the Flames!
Dubnyk gets the win
We clobbered the Sharks one time
Plan next year’s parade!
April’s here at last
The Hell March nears its endpoint
The High Level Bridge
Look to next year now
Ebs, Paajarvi, and Omark
Don’t fuck up that pick

I’m pretty sure this could be the story of the season in 17 syllables.

Once you flew The Great
One over the blue; Today
Pucks tangle our twine.
- – -
A draft picks leaves; brought
Lowe with fear, Tambo
weaves, bobbleheaded.
More haiku
than the rest. It’s about more than syllables. Nicely done!
Big game goaltenders
Have ice water in their veins
Bulin has vodka
Oilers are little
They could be on T L C
Small Players, Big League
