Loving the Farmer , Lawrence and Cam line. Think Lawrence has really upped his game since being on that line. The amount of effort he buts in to what he used to be like is completely different. There's two games in a row where Lawrence has chased down a puck where you thought he would never get it and does. Defence was solid and forwards played there part last night in getting back. Slightly worried about Schultz since his injury though, puts in a lot of effort but the finish seems to be missed. Or is it just me? Got my tickets for the final too gonna be a tough game. I think the notable difference in Lawrence's game can be attributed to the role he's being asked to play. Last year he had to be the go-to-guy on offence because of the lack of production from Bruce Graham which evidently took away from the other areas of his game, whereas this year he's playing as a 3rd line centre on a checking line (a role I think it's safe to assume he was tasked with during his stint in the AHL based on his points production there). He'd be close to the top of my list of returnee's for next season. Final should be fun, the 2 best teams going head to head, think it will come down to goaltending in the end which should give us the advantage.

Simms take on where Steelers are.....Something to make you laugh this morning. Simms comparing the injuries at Steelers to Man Utd - Dowd/Ryan Giggs, Plante/Peter Schmeichel, Fretter/Ronaldo and Desbiens/Rooney. He does try bless him. Even better is the after game interview with Thommo, its all our fault because we planned the games around their heaviest schedule & we wouldn't budge. Think he forgot we have also played 5 in 8. Would just love to see us play like that against Belfast on Friday, especially the Larry, Janssen line. The guys are going to be knackered with only one days rest. Would love to win this cup again just to see how Cam reacts, he's absolutely buzzing isnt he.

I'm surprised he even knows who Man Utd are.

The Farmer, Lawrence, Jansen line is very effective and I am loving this years Lawrence.

The only criticism I have is that players are reluctant to shoot when they had a clear opportunity electing to pass other than that please continue to play that way. The only reason for that was because they were trying to set other players up and playing to "Simms Code". Don't want them playing in an empty arena for the rest of the season do we?

Thought Waugh played very good last night, as did Quick - first time i've seen him and he looked good
