Sorry, not really about Hockey, any more than American Pie was about Chevies.
the '72 summit series was a great moment for Canada, and one ofthose moments of youth you will never forget (if you were alive!). The reference to Participaction the "National Fitness Program" is another one of those unique Canadian memories growing up in the 70's.
But I think the song is about how stars have been replaced with fireworks. Great people, great moments are lost in the modern rush of moments and people. When everyone gets 15 minutes, no-one gets 16. The bright stars of yesterday are replaced with the brief fireworks of today.

Cool tune, though.
