Toronto coach Pat Quinn sends scouts out around the world looking
for a new centre to hopefully help win the Stanley Cup for Toronto.
One of his scouts informs him of a young Iraqi centre who he thinks
will turn out to be a true superstar. So, Pat flies to Iraq to
watch him play and is suitably impressed. He arranges for him
to come over to Canada to play in the NHL for The Toronto Maple
Leafs. Two weeks later, Toronto is down 4-0 at home against Montreal
with only 8 minutes left. Pat gives the young Iraqi centre the nod
to go on, and he puts him on in place of Sundin.
The lad is a sensation, scores 5 goals in 8 minutes and wins the
game for Toronto. The fans are delighted, the players and coaches
are delighted and the media love the new star.
When he comes off the ice, he phones his Mum to tell her about his
first day in the NHL. "Hi Mum, guess what?" he says. "I played for
8 minutes today, we were down 4-0 but I scored 5 goals and we won.
Everybody loves me; the fans, the players and the media, they all
love me".
Great," says his mother, "let me tell you about my day. Your father
got shot in the street, your sister and I were raped and beaten and
your brother has joined a gang of looters, while you were having a
great time".
The young lad is very upset. "What can I say, Mum, I'm so sorry".
Sorry!" says mother, "It's your damned fault that we moved to
Toronto in the first place!"
