No one that knows how to fly fish prefers spin casting.

I love to fish. Flyfishing is the best at times, Spinning is at others. Put my flyrod away since I moved to Alberta.

Looked like he was snow plowing when he touched the ice.

Yeah, or there.

Also Mini is right, Boeser is already BB. Brucey, Brucer, Bouds, Boudder, Boudsey, BruBy. I don’t know what will stick but it’s got to be something different.

Yeah, they are a joke. So many of those types head north from the lower mainland. All their trendy gear, trendy lingo and their lemming attitude as they infest certain waters gets tiresome. At the end of the day, they are nowhere near as successful as the folks who are chill. Then they get desperate and crowd you out because you make it look simple which it often is. Still you get no respect because your gear amounts to a couple of grand and not tens of thousands...

Surprisingly these lines have not been used all that much other than the 1.

Skip ahead to 2 mins in. Or skip ahead to 7 minutes in if you want to hear about his style/system.

Sounds like a refreshing change from passive Travis Green hockey

You should try fishing the South Island. You'd be up on murder charges by now.

He had tough stars in Backstrom /Ovechkin and Perry /Getzlaf

Now he has softies.

What's with Batchelor's lineups? Does he do these on purpose to create controversy?

Poolman has struggled really bad, hopefully Gabby can turn that around, think I like Burroughs more at the moment.

Man it is so good not thinking about Benning and Green (frank)ing things up anymore.

That’s what you took from that? We all know the roster is terribly constructed and will take awhile to fix. But it sounds like BB will run a more aggressive system when it comes to puck pressure.

Green ran a cuck system

I was concerned JB was getting ready to dump another couple of high draft picks to try to save his job.

I like that he is looking at Podk at center.

The new guy brought in will probably have ownership pressure to win asap too so the trading of picks is still a possibility
