Two very poor crowds against both the German teams by the looks of the seating plan.
Panthers may just be regretting that ticket pricing now.

Not sure which I’ll be attending; would have liked to have gone to both games but the finances won’t allow it. Have to agree with Iggy that the club really missed a trick on this one.

If I go to either, it’ll be as a walk up. I rarely miss any games but 75 quid for 5 games plus a CC game all before 1st September is a lot.
50 quid all in would have been much better

I'm going on Saturday, looking forward to being back on the arena for another year.
Agree with Iggy though, it is too rich for preseason. Unusual to play 5 of 6 games at home of course.

I agree, while it's great that we are getting plenty of Pre Season games, having 2 home games over the Weekend is a bit much. Probably best to have played just 1 game and have a better attendance instead of spreading it over 2 games.
Also Sundays at 16:00 are awkward for people with jobs and other responsibilities, don't think people would be booking time off work (Especially if it requires a day off) for a Friendly (If there is a game on Saturday night)

Going on the Saturday. I agree it’s a shame about the pricing and the effect this has had on attendance as it should be a fun match and surely it is more fun (as let’s remember this is entertainment) for both fans and players to play to a full house.
Either way, LETS GO PANTHERS!

We've got 2 young kids so realistically the only games we can get to are those on a Sunday. So I'm pleased that there is a preseason game that we can get to. Having previously been season ticket holders before having kids it's nice to be able to get to a game early on.
Agree - the pricing does seem a little short-sighted.

Going on the Saturday....but looks fairly empty. Very bad pricing strategy IMO.

Going to both as I can't make next weekends games. Looking forward to seeing different teams and the only chance to see European opposition this season.

I’m looking forward to the games - I get bored seeing the same old, same old that the EIHL serves up

Are these games we should be winning easily, or are they going to be a real challenge?

Are these games we should be winning easily, or are they going to be a real challenge? Dresden are a DEL2 side made up of mainly Germans with only a few imports, so I think we should realistically win that one. Fischtown are a mid table DEL side with a majority import roster, so that's probably going to be a more competitive game and more indicative of where we are. |

EDIT..opps I see, injuries already. I would rather them be 100% fit for Sheffield than pick up a silly injury in these games. As I remember, Krefeld was pretty fiesty last year, so if there are any niggles, probably best they sit them out tbh. |

The website hasn't stated any players will definitely be missing as of yet. It says a couple of players will have late fitness tests. Obviously if they fail that then they won't play.
It's not ideal players potentially missing games but in the grand scheme of things I'd rather it happens now in pre season rather then when the season proper has started.
If people actually listened to the Chernomaz interview on the website site then it would be fairly easy to work out who 1 of the players with a 'niggle' is
The interview mentioned that it's Dylan Olsen's shirt off his back Saturday.
Also that it is scheduled to be Rheaults shirt on Sunday.... With the caveat that if he doesn't play then they will swap it with someone elses.
The inference being that Rheault is one of the players who has a niggle and may be rested...
The interview also stated Chernomaz is intending to start Gospel on Saturday (intention is for the full game) & play Garnett on Sunday....

I dont think many fans think the pricing for these games are right however they still have a choice to pay that price or not. If they make that choice expecting 100% comitted hockey without thinking players like Gospel will get a game, or players may sit out then more fool them. |
