Hockey is a family of sports in which two teams play against each other by trying to maneuver a ball or a puck into the opponent's goal using a hockey stick. In many areas, one sport (typically field hockey or ice hockey) is generally referred to simply as hockey.
The first recorded use of the word "hockey" is found in the text of a royal proclamation issued by Edward III of England in 1363 banning certain types of sports and games.
"[m]oreover we ordain that you prohibit under penalty of imprisonment all and sundry from such stone, wood and iron throwing; handball, football, or hockey; coursing and cock-fighting, or other such idle games."
The word hockey itself is of unknown origin, although it is likely a derivative of hoquet, a Middle French word for a shepherd's stave. The curved, or "hooked" ends of the sticks used for hockey would indeed have resembled these staves.
Games played with curved sticks and a ball can be found in the histories of many cultures. In Egypt, 4000-year-old carvings feature teams with sticks and a projectile, hurling dates to before 1272 BC in Ireland, and there is a depiction from c.600 BC in Ancient Greece where the game may have been called kerētízein or kerhtízein (κερητίζειν) because it was played with a horn or horn-like stick(kéras, κέρας) In Inner Mongolia, China, the Daur people have been playing beikou, a game similar to modern field hockey, for about 1,000 years.
Patrick Timothy Kane, Jr. (born November 19, 1988) is an American professional ice hockey right winger/center currently playing for the Chicago Blackhawks. The Blackhawks selected him with the first overall pick in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft. Kane won the Stanley Cup with Chicago in 2010.
Kane attended the St. Martin of Tours school and started playing for the Cazenovia Chiefs in his hometown of Buffalo, New York. He played for the West Seneca Wings, Buffalo Regals, and Depew Saints.
When Kane was fourteen, he played junior hockey for the USA Bobcats, scoring many goals and earning the title of MVP. Kane relocated to Michigan where he lived with former NHL player Pat Verbeek, having been convinced to play for the Honeybaked AAA hockey club in Detroit. The club is a part of the Midwest Elite Hockey League. Kane's career with Honeybaked lasted for 3 years.
The London Knights drafted Kane in the 5th round of the 2004 Ontario Hockey League Midget Draft, but he did not choose to play for the Knights until the 2006–07 season. Instead, Kane played for the United States U-18 National Team Development Program (NTDP), where he led the team in scoring with 102 points during the 2005–06 season. Playing on a line with Sergei Kostitsyn and Sam Gagner, he amassed 145 points for the OHL scoring title and combined with Gagner and Kostitsyn for 394 points.
Winter time and the frozen river
Sunday afternoon
They're playing hockey on the frozen river
Rosie...!
You skate as fast as you can 'til you hit the snowbank
(that's how you stop)
And you buy your sweater through the catalogue
Sailing on
Rosie...!
You'll have that scar on your chin forever you know
Looks bad now, but someday your girlfriend will say "Hey, what...?"
You might look out the window... Or not
Don't let those Sunday afternoons
Get away get away get away get away
Break away break away break away break away
This stick was signed by Jean Belliveau
so don't f**kin' tell me where to f**kin' go...
f**k f**k f**k f**k!
Sunday afternoon
Hey, your dog just stole the puck- ahh... not my dog
You get it - your turn
They rioted in the streets of Montreal when they benched Rocket Richard,
and that is true bona fide Canadian history, that's what really counts
That's what we're all about
Don't let those Sunday afternoons
Get away get away get away get away
Break away break away break away break away
You use your rubber boots for goal-posts
and you're so proud of that, cause they're your boots that they're usin'
that...
Oh... walkin' home
There's some people fishin' in those fishin' huts down the river
Smoking big cigars and telling stories of long ago
Rosie...!
The sun is setting on the frozen river
And the willow trees with their long fingers
hanging over the banks
and somewhere far away in a distant memory is a little boy sittin' on a log
with bare feet, bruised knees
fishin' fishin'
dreamin' of one day... one day
They're playin' hockey on the frozen river
The wind is dying down
Don't let those Sunday afternoons
Don't let those Sunday afternoons
Make me a deal
And make it good for me
I won't get full of myself
'Cause I cant afford to be
This is small town music
This is big town music
He's ahead of his time, you know
But he can't use it
If only he could prove it
Well, tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
Oh, and tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
It's just a song away
Hey!
See what your man has done to the world
See what the world has done to your man
You know I'm leaving you
You don't need me
Lovin' you wasn't
Always so easy
This is believe me music
This is forget me music
This is who can love me, you know
This ain't no Roxy music
This is new form music
This is old form music
This is I paid attention, now
So, this is prediction music
Oh, who could let me use it
Oh, tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
Oh, and tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
It's just a song away
Yeah! Woo! Huh! Uh! Hey!
Well, and I want to write a truthful song
Over an eighties groove
I like to let you know
I'll always be straight with you
I stole my personality
From an anonymous source
And I'm gonna pay for it, too
I don't feel bad about that
Give me my chance back
Well, this is on the rise music
This is novelty music
This is who can blame music
I don't get fooled by it
This is where'd you go music
This is come home music
This is down to the wire
I'm such a perfect angel music
Who really tries
Oh, and tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
Oh, and tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
Aw, well, this is success music
And what's it to ya?
My lawyer always says
These are the facts about the future
Well, tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
Oh, well, tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
Oh, well, tomorrow's just a song away, a song away, a song away
Hold up a picture of a highway
And a picture of a home
And a picture of some money
And a picture of some bones
All together, all in a row
But out of all those pictures
You'll only notice one
But it's really not important
No, it's no more than a fortune
It just shows what doors are open
If you're looking at the home
Well, your feet are scared
You're looking at the road
You're gonna feel restless for a while
Yes, for a while, for a while
If you're looking at the money
Well, you benefit from the army
You're looking the bones
Well, you got some silly reasons in their eyes
Yes, in their eyes, in their eyes
This the song, this the song
The song of four holy photos
They never look into their own eyes
It's the second closest you'll get
There's settlement of foreigners
In a land that they can't see
Where the birds are always singing
And the water runs clean
But all these things
Told them nothing
There's a makeshift church
And there's a hand that pulls a rope
And the rope swings the bells
As they ring into the trees
And make an echo
And it never stops
Well, so I hung up those pictures
In their foraminous place
Where their mood is a little nervous
But they felt they had a reason enough to stay
So they stayed
And no one when they looked
Could even see the bones at all
The leaders took the money
And the others took the color of the road
Yes, and the home
And no one argued
It was one of them who did
And he spoke on what he saw
And ruined his reputation
He was labeled as a misfit
Ah, you know
That's just what saints get sometimes
This the song, this the song
The song of four holy photos
They never look into their own eyes
Oh, well
An easy life
That I never wanted
We agree
Headlong worked out I see
Is there a way that we could skip this part?
Because one time when I lose someone
Every time they wanted to cry for me
All my life I guess I'm down with that
It might be worth it
All I say is
It's too much work, work, working
Just too much work for me
It's too much work, work, working
Just too much work for me
And so I saw you running on
I always knew you wouldn't come up with it
And I always, always look forward
That you wouldn't, wouldn't come up it
And you're just, just a big talker
I'm like you
And we don't, don't worry about it now
I really love when someone talks back to me
Even though it's work, work, work, yeah
Whoa it's too much work for me
It's too much work, work, working
Just so much work for me
It's too much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
It's too much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
It's too much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
It's too much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
And I guess there's a lot to learn
Well from a life of very fast days
Yes and I guess there's a lot to learn
All from a life of take-what-you-want-days
Oh, well me, well I just don't know
I'm just a preacher not a spiritual role
Oh well come on, just figure it out with me
Even though I know it's so
So much work, work, work, yeah
Just so much work for us
So much work, work, working
Just so much work for us
So much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
So much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
So much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
So much work, work, work
Uh-oh uh-oh
I tell 'em straight up
I'll do it, I shouldn't have to
Tell 'em straight up, yeah
I'll do it but I shouldn't have to
Tell 'em straight up
Yo, I'll do it, I shouldn't have to
So much work, work, work, yeah
Just so much work for me
That too much work, work, work, yeah
Whoa so much work for me
Far too much work, work, work, yeah
Whoa so much work for me
I won't turn away

The harder that she tries more bright it's gonna shine you see
No, it's not the same
When they call me by my name these days
Because I know by the sound
That they don't know who I am, oh no, no
I only say what I feel, I only feel three times a year
Sike, everyone feels all the time
And when the light's went out of the sky
Over my grandparents farm in July I said I'm gonna play the NBA
