Steelers/Blaze could be interesting, can see Blaze doing something there. They've had a good record against the Yorks.
Expect Devils to win.
Clan v Fife could be good too, can see that going against the ranking too.

Can see us failing to qualify, AGAIN - about the only one that is almost a certainty is Devils, but again Stars have managed a couple of upsets this season so anything is possible

If the Clan are still in the tie after the first leg then I think we'll be in Nottingham. We are the in form team in the league on a 7 game win streak.
Then again that doesn't count for much in a Play Off situation.

No tie is a "gimme".
Shuff have struggled v Cov this season.
Dundee can do something at home so depending how badly they lose in Cardiff, could be in Nottingham.
Fife v Braehead is anyone's guess. Clan's recent form should see them through though.
Belfast/Nottingham who knows which Panthers team will show up?!

Steelers vs Blaze - think Steelers will just take it.
Devils vs Stars - Devils to take it.
Clan vs Flyers - Gonna be close but I will say Flyers.
Giants vs Panthers - Giants over two legs.

It's the sort of thing Team Hollywood excels at though, isn't it? A handful of games with a nice shiny pot at the end of it for Gary to refuse to let go of.
I think whoever gets through our quarter will win the whole thing.

I know the whole Team Hollywood is a bit old hat and has been done to death but Tommo was years ahead of his time with that description of us. Perfect analogy. Anyway, I'll go for:- Coventry Cardiff Braehead Panthers Some good games to be had in these quarter finals though. Each tie is hard to call. Good stuff. |

So with play offs starting this weekend how do you think the matches will go & who is your final 4?
Steelers v blaze - for me I think this will be a great tie, blaze have had steelers numbers this year could all be down to Stewart tho
Devils v stars - Devils should take this easy but this is play off hockey anything can happen
Clan v flyers - again should be a cracking tie, both teams have been in good form running up the play offs could go either way
Giants v panthers - again another cracking tie that could go either way over the weekend, Giants have been in good form of late but on our day we have shown we can beat any team in the league, will that team show up tho.
My final 4
Blaze
Devils
Clan
Giants

Steelers are away first and I think it'll be tight at the skydome, but can only see them winning pretty comfortably at home.
Devils will probably win both games over the stars, but won't be a walkover by any stretch.
For me Clan vs Flyers will be the closest. Can't rule out Fife by any stretch and have got just as much of a chance but I think Braehead will go through. But only by 1.
Our tie, sorry, but just can't see us getting past Belfast. Pains me to say it but they were the only team I wanted us to avoid in the QFs.

Steelers vs Blaze - Blaze
Devils vs Stars - Stars
Clan vs Flyers - Clan
Giants vs Panthers - Panthers
Giving my honest opinion of pre-first leg results. I didn't think Steelers would have much luck against Blaze but I didn't think they'd score 5, it's all down to our hero Stewart now! I didn't think Devils were very good towards the end of the season and Dundee have always been good this season when it came to scoring goals. I know Flyers won the first leg but I just think Clan will take it, I don't think they're good enough to win the weekender though.
Panthers, I could never bet against them and Belfast have been very lucky this season, always managing to play against the bigger teams when the bigger teams have been on massive game streaks whilst they've rested, I just think Panthers have way too much to lose against them this season.

When was the last time all four top seeds lost the first game?
Also interesting to see Cardiff playing at home first. I'm guessing it's so they would only have to travel once before playing.

Was talking about this last night. Dunno about the whole top 4, but when if ever have both you and us failed to qualify. One of us is always there.
I think we have a fighting chance at home tonight, our 3rd last night was a key moment. I will be honest though and say I think you need more than a 1 goal cushion going over the SSE.
All to play for, and I will be at the NIC regardless with my team of sellers trying to send 2 of you home a bit richer.
