My best ever Blaze memory is of winning at the Skydome just before Christmas the year we won the league. Absolutely hammered them something like 7-0 and spent most of the night doing the 5 hole song and dance winding Hirsch up. Priceless

I like that they enjoyed beating us in the playoffs in 2015, that they forgot which round it was in.

I enjoyed the bit where they spent too much money for a couple of years then expected people to put money in a bucket to bail them out ! 😆

Priceless My first game vs you guys was earlier that season, it was Beleskey’s first game for us, and pretty sure it was a win for us too. I was sat in Block 9 for the 8 goal drubbing, sat in the middle of a whole load of Panthers fans, you were a brutal crowd that night, I’ve never left a game before the end but that’s one game I wished I had. See you Sunday, let’s hope it’s a corker

The usual slanted perspective, of course... but if you want to talk about humiliations down at the ChavDome that they aren't prepared to talk about... The last year of the ISL... Panthers went down to Coventry for a challenge match against the then-BNL Coventry Blaze. Of course, Coventry played up the 'David vs Goliath' bit for all they were worth, but the Blaze fans were especially vocal about our top 'hard man' of the time, Barry Nieckar. Apparently it was an article of faith in Coventry that Baz was somewhat less evolved than a chimpanzee, and that he could barely manage to do two things at the same time (breathing and skating) so according to them, actually playing hockey was totally beyond him. They went on and on and on about it... honestly you'd have thought they were Steelers fans! Baz scored a hat-trick in that game, including a sublime one-on-one against Coventry's star netminder... Jody Lehman. Yes, the same one who went on to become a folk hero in Sheffield (although these days, that applies to any netminder who stays there for more than one season and has a save % better than 0.85! ). Couldn't play hockey. Yeah, right... about that...

Rissling gets back to back 2 minute minors... 2-1 End of the second.

And normal service is resumed. Stupidity and lack of effort the only constant.
