Old Loubardias... Answers questions by asking himself questions.
- Pat: "Lou, what do you think of the Flames PP which is hovering around 50%?"
- Lou: "Has it been good? on some occasions. Has it been bad? Sometimes. Can it be better? Of course. Will it be? We'll have to wait and see."
New Loubardias... adds the element of answering questions by asking vague questions to the host.
- Pat: "Lou, what do you think of the Flames PP which is hovering around 50%?"
- Lou: "Pat, what's the third thing I mentioned on Tuesday when we talked about goaltending"
- Pat: "um... I'm... not... really... sure"
- Lou: "It's one of the things I think any hockey player needs to be successful."
- Pat: "um..."
- Lou: "I'm referring to the c-word
- Pat: "confidence???"
The dialogue over the last few months between Wills, Lou, Pat and Pinder has become so awkward at times thanks to that 800 lb Mike Smith gorilla. It's been amateur hour on many occasions and a train wreck at other times (ie. professionals getting emotional discussing players).

That Q & A comparison is so spot on and so funny. I can totally hear his voice.
