That’s Ron Maclean’s job to explain how the rule was devised when glen sather’s mom was making dresses in whitecourt when a customer asked for a batten of fabric and she misunderstood and thought bat it in would be a rule that would favour the Oilers one day. Incidentally, this was also the same year in cabbagetown where Connor McDavid led the league in assists while also Leon Draisatl watched hockey, just like “Wayne and Mark and Paul and Grant”. Ever since snow fell, you could find, in Ron’s old stomping grounds of red deer, literally ice. And “tops off” Ron on his yacht in the Caribbean.
And that’s why refs “won’t be battin an eye on the batten or bat in, as we now call it.”
Please tell me you used Ron Maclean’s voice when reading that and when you got to the end, just like real life, you had no idea what he just said or why.
