Sing a song of Sundin

Oh dear what can the matter be?
Seven GMs wond'ring where the Swede's home will be.
They'll be on standby 'til opening night if they need to be
But Mats doesn't care that they're there.

Now the first GM is rookie Mike Gillis
His twenty-mill deal was intended to chill us.
But if Matsy goes there, at least he won't kill us.
Sundin doesn't care that he's there.

The second GM is wily Glen Sather.
Jagr has gone, but Lundqvist will stay there.
The Rangers buy teams, but the Cup's out of play there.
Sundin doesn't care that he's there.

The third GM is tough-guy Paul Holmgren
His Bullies with Mats would advance in the show then
But they'd be over the cap by seven, eight, nine or ten
Sundin doesn't care that he's there.

The fourth GM is senile Cliff Fletcher
As a team architect, he is more of a sketcher
Mats ran away from his team like a girl from a lecher
Sundin doesn't care that he's there.

The fifth GM was Holland in Detroit
He offered a deadline deal Mats would not exploit.
So Ken signed up Hossa, as a GM he's adroit
Sundin doesn't care that he's there.

The sixth GM was the Islanders' Garth Snow
The city's the draw 'cause the Isles are a no go
If Big Mats goes there, the Cup he will forego
Sundin doesn't care that he's there.

The last GM is the Habs' Patient Bob
For whom landing Mats is a helluva tough job
But if the Swede won't listen, he's really a big knob
Sundin doesn't care that he's there.

And it's oh, dear, what can the matter be?
Seven GMs wond'ring where Mats' home will be
They'll be on standby 'til opening night if need be
But Sundin doesn't care that they're there.

Haha wow! I always say musicals solve everything. Well, almost everything.

Shame you couldn't get it to scan

Ah well, I suppose that fits with the story - something about Mats doesn't seem to scan too well either!
