'twas the game before Christmas, and all through Atlanta,
the fans and the players all waited for Santa
but before his big visit the team had a job
they needed a win to placate the mob

so the game went on, both teams got some scores
they tied it all up with nothing but fours
the fans whooped and hollered and wanted a win
the Inferno were close, just put the puck in

it didn't take long, only one minute in
Mia came speeding to the net with a grin
a quick little deke and a flick of the wrist
Lavoie scored the winner, the defense was dissed

her teammates came in, they had a good celly
their opponents looked on, really quite jelly
at the end of it all, the teams both shook hands
they did what they could to meet crowd demands

the game was now over, the fans all went home
the win was recorded in SHL's tome
now Santa could visit and Christmas proceed
happy holidays to all who bother to read
