Saw the movie "Chicago" again recently and I thought one of the songs would be wonderful to add to the Lynah repetoire, with a little change. I'm thinking of the song "Mr Cellophane" with lyrics (modifying the pronoun) that go like
"Cellophane, Mr Cellophane, shoulda been his name,
Mr Cellophane.
'Cause you can look right through him
And walk right by him
And never know he's there."
This song, of course, would be sung after a particularly egregious goal given up by the opponent's sieve.
It's a very singable song (not a large dynamic range; even I can sing it in the shower and sound creditable), and I can imagine the Pep Band having a good time with it, for it lends itself to orchestration.

I'd propose a few alternate words, though, specifically:
'Cause you can shoot right through him,
and skate right by him
Yes, I know you can see through cellophane and not shoot through it (well, you could, it's pretty flimsy), but it makes more hockey sense.
