Sounds like a plan. See you then.

PUCKBOYS CHAT

SHANE:

Yo. Who the hell is this Hollis dude??

RYDER:

I got the lowdown from Coach after the game. Former Briar player. Won 3 Frozen Fours under Coach. He was an insurance broker but got laid off this summer and needed a job. I think Jensen is doing him a solid.

BECK:

Awww, I knew Jensen had a heart somewhere in that bitchy chest of his.

I like him.

SHANE:

Dude. He seems insane. I’m not being hyperbolic either. He literally seems like he escaped from a mental institution a few days ago and somehow wound up coaching hockey at Briar.

RYDER:

If Coach vouches for him, I’m sure it’s fine.

SHANE:

It’s fine until he and/or his wife suffocate you in your sleep for accidentally breathing near one of his daughters.

BECK:

I want to meet the daughters.

The age appropriate one.

WILL:

I’d advise you against that.

SHANE:

Dude, imagine that guy being your father-in-law? I’d way rather have Garrett Graham.

BECK:

Pretty sure Gigi’s brother is still single. You could marry him as your way into the family.

SHANE:

Or I could not do that.
