They are already using the low post shot on us as we just saw.
Are we ready to exploit that?

You know they are looking for that first shot on net to be going low post sooner or later so you know when to strip them of the puck,use your anticipaction from this detail they have shown to you.Tell the men to look to strpi em when they try for that shot you KNOW you can bait them into.

On defense they are all collapseing to the puck carrier when we penetrate their zone on the right side,and the backdoor is WIDE OPEN. FLIP it over their coverage laterally,because they are GIVING us the blueline,and intending to collapse,so sneak a guy in behind them and FLIP IT OVER THEM INTO THE CORNER.Let tehm converge stop just inside the blueline on the boards suck em in then flip it high and OVER them.

When they are in our d-zone,commit a man to pinch their puck movement on the half-boards,they will ALWAYS first penetrate then use the boards ,pinch the half-wall consistantly and you can catch them up the middle.

They are looking to catalyse most of their offense off of peripheral shots,their d-man are wide apart and aleays cheating in to much.

You MUST take away their first shot from the outside.

You need to stop them on their n-zone trnsitions,pressure them sooner and NOT give them the d-zone.

When they are pressureing just pinch em at the half-wall and go back at them.

The key is to pressure their d-men wayyy,more and stop them in the n-zone at all costs,looking to break back on them.

Their 1st defensive zone exit transition is their Achillies heel so stop them from executing it.

Adjust the forecheck pressure to attack them with spped and deep,take away their time and look to take it to the middle every time and to the net.

First you use solid forechecking at high speed committing deep to hurry their first transition,then you pinch them off in the n-zone and try to run it right to the net on them using you forechecker stillcoming out of the zone as support. You TARGET them in the n-zone AFTER you hurry their exit ,FORCE them to make a fast pass on that first transition and then pick them off in the high n-zone and go right ot the net.

Our forecheckers need to go RIGHT at the puck timed well so they are in FAST and they need to cut off the lanes ALL THE WAY IN,zeroing on the puck to creat maximum pressure.

Extended pressure on the forecheck as well,dont just take a swipe at the puck carrier,ZERO IN ON HIM, and pursue the puck hard on the back check if they try to skate it out,use your speed advanatge.

Pay extra attention to them because they run a man into the n-zone high speed to back the d-men off then plant him at the corner just a foot into the n-zone and he waits there to break in.
Dont let them plant that man,get coverage on him right away when you see them back the d-men up that way.

Everyone needs to get their feet moving and look for some contact,we are playing a peripheral game using to much stick influence we need to skate harder and close faster on them.
DO NOT GIVE THEM THE HIGH BLUELINE TO SET UP. Pressure them and pinch the half-wall ,as thats where their d-men will put it when we challenge fast and high on our blueline,so simply pressure them igh and hard with contact pushing their d-men back out of the zone with emphasis,100% committment to taking away the high puck play and then an anticipatory man pinching the halfboards waiting for them to try to squirt it in,then simply use the man who hit the puck carrier with a pass from the halfboards pinch point and you have a breakaway.The best part is that this is a key area of their system and you can do this over and over to them.

You MUST be more committed and aggressive on the forecheck and MUST be aggressive in our blueline and push their d-men right out HARD AND FAST,then look back to see if we got lucky and pinched the puck to set up the breakaway,that aggressive man pushing them out of the zone will be in a PRIME position to break away on his own.

Keep your sticks down and close more on them,take away the shot EVERY time,as they are using a TSP they learned a long time ago and will ALWAYS be looking for a shot on net and not always a prime one,they will be looking for directed rebounds but the puck carrier in our zone will ALAWAY be looking to get the puck on net.

Remember to hit the playaction on our high blueline with high speed and impact on center of body pushing their d-men back and taking him out of the play.

Remember to keep the middle covered and only pinch over to the halfboards when you see the aggressive charge at the puck carrier high in our zone,they like to target the middle so time it right ,play off of that aggressive charge on the puck carrier,and I mean AGGRESSIVE,you MUST remove him from the playaction by physically driving him back,forget the puck use so much speed and committiment that he has to just use his pressure outlet and squirt it along the boards,where we will be waiting to send you in all alone because you will be facing the right direction wiht a speed and momentum advantage.

If you just keep overloading the right side with a high speed o-zone penertation and then a pause just inside their blueline to suck them all into collpasing their entire zone coverage on the puck carrier we can CONSISTANTLY CATCH THEM by running a man along the far boards coming in UPSPEED faster than the playaction is developing and NOT trying to get him the puck diagonally through sticks and bodies,FLIP it high over their heads into the boards for you upspeed man who is behind them LATERALLY.

They are cheating when they collapse to the puck carrier high in their d-zone corner just when we penetrate ,they want to stop the low post shots and thats why they are collapsing so early,take advantage of this mistake,and just sneak a man in high speed behind them,if you lay waiting for them they will be easy to catch collapsing to early.DONT RING IT IN ON THE BOARDS from the right side,they want that turnover.Let tehm collapse on you and then catch a VERY late but very FAST trailer with a lob pass. They will all be facing the wrong direction closing on the puck carrier and no one will be able to make the turn and burn fast enough to catch our man sneaking in along the boards tight and fast.

Lets see offensive pressure on the PK,use the aggressive pressure up high and drive the mans center of gravity back so fast he cannot make a proper look or pass go for him so his instincts make him want to pull his arms in and up to protect himself,so he panics.

On those wraparound attempts there is nearly ALWAYS a man on the halfboards backdoor,so instead of tucking it just take it a foot wider and try to pinball it through anywhere in the halfwall direction,nothing special as that man always seems uncovered as the wraparound setup makes them collapse to the net.

Tell every man to set a new game priority,to make the next sucessfull zone transition, whenever they have the puck they need to put 100% of their energy into finding a way to make each transition,we are not holding onto the puck long enough after our first exit transition ,we need to change the pace and try to skate through our transitions,and pass anytime after we cross a line,but make the transition with puck possesion before we pass every time.

This will make give and goes work nicely if we make it happen.

Transition focus.Hard skating,forcing them to take penaltys trying to stop us from making those transitions in those high risk areas that threaten them.

They are giving us the first shot in their zone, SO TAKE IT RIGHT TO THE NET AND STUFF IT IN OR ROOF IT .

Focus on making the first shot or pass but EVERY chance you get walk it right in and try to deke the tender and go 5-hole or roof-daddy.

They are giving us that possesion in close so lets stop passing it away just get it and make a terminal move on the net,use your skill level and hands in close.

That is not ok,someone inject some energy here.

Very nice job of taking the puck to the net to convert our o-zone possesions,it is looking GREAT.It will pay dividends,we make so many solid transitions that if we keep charging to the net we will score more than they will, just keep hammering them by taking it in and force them to take penaltys or score.

This guy is used to the low shots ,its time to catch him sleeping,shoot on him anywhere from the middle and up high,dont shoot from wide out or the missed high shots will ring out of the zone,just take your shots as you flow laterally across the front and let them go high and hard right at him so he bobbles some rebounds and we can get him down by those feet we have been working of for 2 periods.Time to stretch him out without making poor shot choices and losing possesions to missed shots ringing outof the zone,shoot from straight on moving across and go high on him making him drop the puck down in front or ripping it into the boards straight on hoping it pops back straight out for us.

In the 3rd watch for Stoll posting up on the corner of the n-zone on our bluelien,or even on his own blueline looking for a diagonal n-zone breakout pass.

Look for that post up on those corners in the n-zone especially when they are under pressure.

Stay hard and aggressive on them on the blueline in our zone and remember to target their center of gravity and DRIVE THEM BACK with top speed,because when they turn it up they bring those d-men right in close to shoot and catch teams off guard.

Our defense needs to skate the puck up and out N/S immediatly, and have support in tight so they dont need to make lonng passes or anything other than relays,bring a man in behind the d-men skating it up and out a as support when you hit the n-zone. And on the dumpins,feather them into the middle and try to catch their d-men turning in towards the middle together ,make them communicate and maybe choke.

Our forecheck needs to stop swiping at the puck carrier and get their feet moving and commit 100% at TOP SPEED or they will keep making good breakout passes,we need to use our speed and pressure them in their zone, and on both bluelines high and hard.

Ok,I see a way.

Look that was another great effort from the roster and another great try by the coaches.
Players Grade-- 8.0
Coaches grade-- 5.0

The players scored higher this game and the coaches not so much.

Remember their second goal last night? Look at the post made at 9:46 and try to tell yourself that isnt exactly what I was telling you to do.

In fact get the televised version of the game and compare it to my posts and watch the game as you read,dont read them all first,look at the times I posted and then evaluate the changes you should have made to win the game.

I have already posted many times during LA games to NHL teams and the tactical observations are nearly always the same for the last 3 years.

I have given much more detailed posts to the Oilers in the past about LA games on various sites.

Nothing really changed,yet every time the team plays LA I see a different face,how is that possible?LA hasnt changed much.


The effort last night showed EXACTLY why the current roster can win the Stanley Cup just as they are, the Kings were shut down big time,they were in shock for most of the game.

They survived and I was as surprised at that fact as I was to see the Kings FLIP a puck over our collapsed coverage to an open man exactly as we were supposed to do,they could have scored a thousand other ways but it had to be that way for some reason.Strange huh?

I cannot fault the coaches because they came out with a decent gameplan,all I can do is mark their grade lower because they brought a "compete" gameplan not a WIN one and it showed.

There are ways to play the Kings that allow you to inject wayyy more offense than was seen in that game.They WANT to keep it close and with the system they play it is extremely easy to make them open up and to overwhelm them with offense.

70% of the job was done last night.

The pre-game plan was flawed,in the sense that it wasnt designed to draw blood,it was designed to level the playing field against a bigger team,it did what it was capable of and that just wasnt enough.And there werent many adjustments available to begin with,although some nice ones were defintely made during the game they were adjustments that had they been made pre-game would have allowed the team to attack from the 1st shift on.

Once you create a system checkmate with LA it is easy to out score them.Had this been done early we would have outscored them in all 3 periods.


The coaches need to realise that they get very very few major system adjustments during a game,generally 3.

That means they may get 2 or 3 depending on how the game goes and who starts off with possesion.

If you cannot read the oppositions intentions earlier than they can realise the true impact they can have on you then you are behind the eight ball off the bat.

All you hockey coaches know very well that there are traditional parameters to how far head a coach can predict the oppositions adjustments.So dear Dallas,and dear Moose,if I am consistantly and accurately reading and reacting better than NHL coaches there MUST be a reason,reason dictates this right?So what is it? A cheat sheet? A computer program? Pure Intuition? 4 leaf clovers growing out of my arse?

You fellas ought to know what it is,just think about what you DONT HAVE ENOUGH OF,not what you dont have because that is what is preventing an optimal self-valuation from happening for you,you have what you need and its what every NHL coaching team has,you just need MORE than other teams have.

You have statistically catalysed hybrid-intuition being represented as pure intuition.

Your deeply knowledgable hockey managment crew is steeped in hybrid-intuition but epiclly lacking in pure intuition.

This is because ALL hockey resources you use will have this same type of hybrid-intuition.Hockey is a stats represented sport.


Where the Oilers excell is in the possesion/transition style of game,this roster can really make consistntly accurate zone transitions for 60 minutes,it is the initiation managment and finishing of those transitions which need to be addressed.

How they are started as a sequence.And where.

How they are managed.Exactly what puck managment tactics do the coaches want to see,not free choices out there.

How the shots are managed.Is there a Tactical Shooting Program in place,and if not,WHY not,and if there is is it a COMPLETE ONE.And if it is complete has it been tailored to the current Oilers system,because it MUST BE.And it must be adjusted every time the system changes.


The coaches need to wake the heel up and remember what I posted about their problems being caused by an inability of top down managment to get onto the same timeline,well here is the PLATINUM example of why this dynamic fails to improve.

How this for a zinger.You are all coaching from the wrong perspective.

You all need to begin coaching possesions and then transitions,instead of whatever it is you have been trying to coach.

Your NHL games are evolving these ways,and you arent managing these things optimally yet,not even near optimally.

If you cannot simplify the transition game you cannot determine how to evolve your possesion parameters.

You must prepare your system to initiate itself offensively against ALL types of NHL systems and rosters and pressures,that is a basic tenant one would expect.This means you need ONE catalyst you can manage optimally so you can win consistantly or several catalysts you can manage sub-optimally well enough to win a few games.i am referring to the first defensive zone exit transition,the most important one of all to every NHL team.This has been the bane of the team for over ten years.It is what initiates the skillsets this team has or what neutralises that talent and skill.It has nothing to do with a battle between responsible defense and a lack of defense ,it is about how the defense is initiated or activated for the 1st zone transition up-ice.

If you compare LA,Chicago,and the Blues alongside the Oilers ,toss in Vancouver and I will show you the exact same ways all of these teams have recently changed and adjusted the same ways.I will show you which adjustments would be optimal for which team.

Coaching hockey is a chess game,did you know that Big Blue CHEATED to bet Kasparov?Thats right they cheated tio win.

Statistics cannot defeat intuition,ever unless there is cheating involved.In hockey even though it is a statisticlly represented sport INTUITION is the optimal managment tool.This is why all these different teams have simply added one facet or two of the entire database,they cant manage it all on their own or they would be doing so right now.

Each principal needs to be tailored using strong intuition so it fits seamlessly into an existing system ,oh sure you can use duct tape and bubblegum[stats based thinking] and hope she holds together long enough for you to learn enough to keep things stable.But there will be little to no evolution because the original managment protocal is 100% intuition based,so really even if you know the various concepts and also know you want to incorporate them,you CANNOT do it,to do it one by one would take literally years and more coaches than teams use now.One or two basic core value changes are all most systems and coaches can reasonably handle.

I have said it since I invented the NHS, you NEED an Intuitive person to run the show,and not just any old in

Most teams 3 years ago were using hybrids and adjusted-hybrids.

Since then many Western Conference teams have switched totlly to an NHS modified Adjusted-Hybrid.

This is where the Oilers are failing the grade,they arent seamlsessly incorporating anything,their defensive constipation has caused an obstruction.

This is shamefull considering the Oil had ALL the data before everyone else did.

I can post GDTs forever but if no one learns what I am doing ,what have I gained? It is NOT good enough to read my stuff and be so vain to think you can simply figure it all out,you will figure out the ingredients but never the recipie,and simply identifying the ingredients might be enough to fool some people into thinking they have an operational knowledge database and level of acumen.

The Intuitive influence is the "recipie" and you CANNOT duplicate it.

Intuition cannot be copied using statistics,thats what computers try to do with the human brain,this methodology will never create an equal or greater result than nature will.

If one want the best one must be prepared to project the best environment for opportunity and evolution.

I can jive with whatever system Dallas wants to trot out, my read and reacts will always be faster and optimal,better than him and his coaching team,including Moose.

This is because THE SYSTEM DOESNT MATTER, if you have a superior optimal managment program based on 100% intuition running the show you will always produce superior optimal results.

Maybe it is a belief system issue that traditionalists cannot overcome.

I would so like to post optimal line combos and the optimal 1st defensive zone exit strategy,but its all been done several times before,Dallas isnt exactly at the front of the line,I have been posting since Pat Quinn was in Edmonton.I am not going through that again. Google Moma2s NewAgeHockey System or NewAgeSys withFlameshockey,some really diligent flames fan has collected hundreds of relevant posts together in one place in chronological order if you can find it.Smart cookie that one is,he is doing is homework very thoroughly.The Flames will likely do as it looks like they have done, try to fly with the data and adjustments on their own as other teams have.They have incorporated some core value NHS adjustments but they havent understood the entire list of peripheral adjustments they need to do system-wise to optimise these changes.

Or google Moma2s NewAge Hockey System LA kings,and you will find many posts exactly like the current ones.


All these NHS modified Adjusted-Hybrids do is set the table for the full NewAge Hockey System,it is boring to watch them even play when you know how to dismantle them all.It is fun for everyone else because the improved offense is exciting.But boring for me.

I hope there is a library of each and every pre-game preperation filed away somewhere so after games like the last one the team has a solid resource to fall back on.I dont mean gametapes either,I mean the thoughts and strategys that went into the the strategising.
This team comes SO CLOSE SO MANY TIMES,that you cannot overlook all of the good things they accomplish,you cannot really celebrate much without fostering a losing atosphere but it is important to shine this team up wherever we can.

Over a series of close games you should be winning specific patterns of strategising and decision making occur which directly reflect the self-valuations the coaching staff are making.

You can tell where the coaches think the team is strong and weak and you can compare this to reality which is consistantly saying something slightly different that what the coaches are accepting from themselves.

This team has taken an inordinately long time in making accurate and full self-valuations on an ongoing and fluid basis.

There is no template to consistantly go back to no drawing board so to speak,things are TO FLUID.

This is why there is a dire need for records of how these games are individually approached,somewhere along the line someone needs to pin down how Dallas and his crew are thinking.

It has been pre-dominately coaching quirks killing this team this season,it goes beyond the learning curve that we normally see.


There is a consistancy present that illlustrates an underlieing influence which is catalysing regular disconnects between the coaching teams self-valuations and the reality we are all seeing on the ice.

The coaches arent missing by much,even with all of the labor intnsive flip-flops the head coach has used to try to ignite things, Dallas and his crew are usually just ONE step out of synch.

This group can coach this roster of that there is no doubt,they can functionally get the jobs done on an NHL level.

The group CAN AND DOES adjust effectively,it is the decision making on a macro level that is the issue .

ALL the normal parts of the learning curve associated with bringing in a new Head Coach have been accounted for at this point,and the disconnects we are consistantly seeing are beig catalysed from a much more historical place.This is a re-run of previous coaches who have gotten through the learning curve but them hit an invisible wall here.

Dallas HAS come in and done the things he said he would,the players HAVE done the things they have said they would,now we are exactly where Ralph krueger was last season.

We have made zero headway from a results based perspective and unbelievably the problems we face are located in the exact same areas they have been in for ten years.

Someone should be able to walk into a records room in the Oilers offices and simply log on and compare notes from the last en years worth of Olers coaches pre-game strategys.


Can they do this?


Is anyone doing this?

Has everyone given up?

As soon as conventional strategys are exhausted this managment groip looks at each other and gives up,they all self-validate that they are cumulatively so prepared that they HAVE TO HAVE covered every base.

This group is 100% dedicated to statistical analysis because it is ALL THEY CAN ACCESS.They look to each others established traditionally catalysed perspectives and self-validate,it is a vicious circle.

After an epic and extended losing history has been established it is suppossed to get EASIER to diagnose your problems,one should have encountered EVERY BUMP IN THE ROAD by this point,it has been MANY YEARS of losing consistantly here.

Obviously the SAME disconnects are CONSISTANTLY happening and they arent being catalysed predominantly by the men on the ice.They are predominantly being catalysed from a managerial perspective,and very time one happens managment wiggles and worms and tries to pin causality on anything but themselves.This is a regressive perspective and quite cheezy,and has caused a lot of personell changes which were not warranted by the rosters performances but instead were excusatory moves made to cover up a pre-exisiting problem,there are NO OILERS ON THE TEAM ROSTER FROM THE LAST TWO YEARS who have been here longer than the core value problem this team is being eaten to pieces by.

Just managment personell have been here long enough to have been a part of the long term issue.

No one has the ability to walk into a room with Kevin Lowe and Mac-T and Bucky and Smith and all of the other severely experienced hockey people and take them on mano-amano and live to tell the tale.

No traditional hockey mind could stand a chance against the cumulative acumen this organisation has at its disposal.

But an Intuitive professional could walk into the room and lay them all down low immediatly,simply be turning that high powered perception into a mirror and using it to right the boat.

An Intuit would use these men and their acumen and experience to counter balance each other in any discussion to shake the problems loose and out of the equation.

You give me any single problem you want solved and then give me the power to say what I want in that room on a professional level with equal or greater levity being given and I WILL find all of your answers IN THAT ROOM. No one will escape,and no one will be able to hold out on me either,I will KNOW how to piece together the dynamic templates I need to pinpoint specific areas of weakness,and how to strongarm the correct curative tactics and methods out of men who cannot seem to find these things within themselves.

ALL of the ANSWERS are presently located in the room with the managers,and these answers have historiclly been here.

No one with the ABILITY to bring everyone together has ever had a chance to try ,just more statisticlly catalysed hockey minds of different colors keep being brought in so we can try different shades of grey,it is regressive at this point.

I can already use a dynamic template to show you where the point of no return was HISTORICLLY ,where we had hit rock bottom and there was no place left for us to go but up,then I can show you EVERY UNDULATION and bi-polar like swing this team has endured.

The real problem here is that NO ONE has the ability to get the entire managment group into one room long enough to get to the heart of the matter.None of them will let it happen,for many interesting normal and predictable reasons.

As a collecive group they put their hands down and cover their butts together when they see anything resembeling Big Daddy taking his belt off and giving them the hairy eye-ball.Then as soon as Daddy is gone and no punative action has been taken the the threat is worn off they are back to jumping on the bed and causing mischief.

Unfortunately this group ran into Moma2 not Big Daddy,and I KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN DOING.

I run on Intuition,Big Daddy runs on results and statistics which can be manipulated and misrepresented.You WILL not fool me for long and NEVER more than once,I am not looking at numbers I am looking at causality.

I honestly cannot make it any more simple than this example,so this is where I demand a DEE-vorce.

This dysfunctional relationship has gone on for long enough and now I am actually enabeling it to continue.

I am not letting any of the players down ,I have taken more of a beating in cyber-space than any of them have tak

I have taken a greater beating in cyberspace than any of them have taken on the ice.

I have given consistantly for over 3 years,100% and in the face of insurmountable adversity.

I have had zero support or aknowledgment.

I have gotten zero respect.

I consider this a WIN, I am not walking away from a losing dynamic,many individual players have benefitted from the NHS data.

I have only one set of loyaltys,and all the threats of jumping ship that one may make to this deaf group have zero impact or effect on them,they are steadfast in their delinquency.I cannot in good conscience pass the NHS on to another team,so i am deep sixing it into cold storage.Just like memories from a bad relationship .

The issues with the Oilers were clearly defined many years ago and have not changed their core value drivers.

This group honestly cannot help themselves.They are not being derelict,they are simply unable to get the job done without an external and powerfull and equally impactfull influence being able to lock horns with them and force more accurate and full self-valuations on the micro AND macro levels from an organisational standpoint.


This is a one sided relationship and Big Daddy and his single minded perspective has 100% of the vote on everything,as soon as Moma2 tries to apply intuition to any challenges the big bully stomps out the sound of the voice of reason.

There is NO WAY a relationship like this can work out,it can just turn into one long drawn out symphony of misery and wheel spinning,no progress is possible coming out of this dysfunctional dynamic.None.

I have started Dee-vorce proceedings.Big fella you just arent worth the efforts any more.You DONT WANT to change.You cant see that EVERYTHING changes and you hang onto the few happy old memories that you were a part of in the past.You dont want o make any new ones,maybe you dont think things could ever get better than they were back then,well I dont feel that way,I think there are BETTER DAYS ahead,I KNOW there are better and brighter days ahead,but you think you have ALREADY DONE ALL YOU CAN DO and have given up building a greater future to protect and covet history and old memories.You are lving in the past.

No man lives forever only legacys can live forever,what are you really working on your life you are living today or your Legacy?I hope you arent vain enough to value your legacy greater than your present impact.

Life is to short to live in the past.And it is to long to ignore planning for the future.Life is one big classroom and the second you let your mind stray and begin paying less attention you nod off into a daydream and your perspective shifts into one based on quasi-reality.This is when you stop moving forward,it is easy to diagnose in another but difficult to self diagnose,especially if one is expending enough energy spinning their wheels fast enough to stay in one place.

I know we tried to make things work out again over the last few games,but even though i can see you have tried to make some of the changes you need to work on I just dont think you believe in them enough to carry through and keep learning.I think you are posturing.

I know you work hard and compete and never give up,but i need to be a winner to stay happy,i have to see the world from the top of the heap more than you do,I cannot IMAGINE a way out or a path to the future,I MUST SEE IT.And to do that to get those small glimpses of a brighter future to fuel my spirit I NEED TO WIN so I can be up high enough to see the light guiding my way.I know you have the internal compass of a hard working committed type of person and are willing to work buried and in the dark with the steadfast vision of the other side of the mountain in your eye ,but I am not aiming for the other side of the mountain all at once,I am aiming for the top of it first,I need smaller steps than you,I need tiny bits of the fruits of success to keep my passion and fires burning.

I am willing to make changes in small areas you arent willing to change in to live the life I need to live to feel like I am optimising myself and my journey.

To you life is all about the destination but to me it is all about the journey.

You are the Tortise and I am the Hare.

Why didnt we see this sooner?How could we both have been so off base?Like I said I think we have just grown apart,and the funny thing is that this makes sense on every level because for two people to spread apart one must be moving forward faster than the other,I do believe I am moving on.

Some people are just meant to Hold the Fort,and others are meant to Lead the Charge over the hill.

I guess I will always know where to find you over my shoulder and you will always know which direction to look in to find me.

Goodlife,good luck.
