That sounds wonderful, but you will not know how to handle your composure until you actually work a game or a situation you are not used to. If someone is working their first playoff game, it might take a game or two for them to know how to conduct themselves. Sometimes you learn that by watching others. But to not expect someone new to get nervous is not very realistic. You can tell someone to keep their composure and they will likely not relax until that first call or first situation they have to deal with.
