Someone needs to ruin Edmundson.
Refs are calling them for shit they let go against the Sharks so far, though.
This series needs to become better known as the "Wreck of the Edmundson Fitzgerald"
The legend lives on from chippy Chara on down
To the center they called 'David Krejci'
The Garden, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the race for Lord Stanley turns gloomy
As lower seeds go, the Blues were better than most
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
Ending player dreams by beating 3 good West teams
When they left fully loaded for Boston
With a softened ice floor and seventeen thousand fans more
The B's watched Edmundsons elbow get nasty
The good Bruin crew was a bone to be chewed
When the goals from St. Louis came early
The first was a drive past Tuukka's glove side
From a turnover by the defense to Braydan
The second came quick, a blast off Tarasenko's stick
Playoff Tuukka had no chance to save it
Later that night when the first foghorn bell rang
Could it be a nor'easter they'd been feelin'?
And every Blue knew, as their fans did too,
T'was Bobby Orr's karma come stealin'
Clifton answered back and McAvoy sustained the attack
While the gales of all 4 lines came smashin'
When the 3rd Period came it was Kuraly's name
With assists from Zedeno and Acciari
With 34 saves, Binnington was on ice sayin'
Fellas, it's too rough t'hold ya
A bit after 10 when Binnington was pulled in, he said
Fellas, it's been good t'know ya
Pietrangelo wired in he had Marchand comin' in
And the St.Louis Blues were in peril
Shortly thereafter Krug sent Thomas to the rafters
and came the wreck of the Edmundson Fitzgerald
Does St. Louis know where the love of God goes
When black waves turn the minutes to hours?
The sportscasters say they'd have taken the first game
If they'd put just three more goals behind her
They might have split wide or pinched on the outside
Or other tactics that held off the slaughter
And all that remains are the faces and the names
Of the players that became SportsCenter fodder
