Manchester are professionals, they will come to win, however.
They have not been in this position before and I bet they fancy their chances in the Play-Offs.
With nothing to play for, what's stopping them from resting their star players, will they go full throttle and risk injuries against a Panthers team that will be hopefully be coming for them, will any players with slight knocks be looking to protect themselves from making things worse
Maybe they see the weekend as get through it unscathed

There would be absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever if players were rested for the playoffs. Not suggesting for a minute that will occur but it’s not some far fetched scenario.

Just the usual three missing tonight, so far, Neill, Ryczek, Neilson.

Nope, Neill returns to the line up.

Neill being back should help, hopefully he's not playing too many minutes and I hope they are not taking a chance and he gets re-injured like Carr in Dundee.
That's Kelsall back up front again I guess

Haha good job i told them the media team had cocked up again so they could change the press release. That’ll teach them to just “copy and paste” from previous. Good job I’m on the ball ! 🤣 Pmsl |

This feels like The Play-Offs, controlled attacking with Defence the key.
Get shots on Goal, you never know what will happen, I doubt Manchester will be willingly throw themselves at the Puck this week.

Safe in 4th and "resting" players or not, Storm will not give us any points this weekend.

Good to have Michaud and Neill back, a full lineup!!!!!
The team need to leave it all on the ice, focus on our own performance first. Get the puck on net, get traffic in front, the d men can’t be hesitant in getting shots off, they’ve got to let the puck go

3 points behind, only 4 to play for and teams above us playing each other, it’s going to need a miracle.
All we can do is aim to win our games, and Storm away is tough.
We need all 4 and others to lose both.
Been resigned to the fact it’s not happening for ages, so can’t get too disappointed.

Then Neill suddenly popped back in. You’d think with all the minions in the Panthers media team they’d get their act together and at least know what was going on before posting. 🤣 |

If Panthers get 4 points then Clan need 2 points and Blaze 3 points and that’s not going to be easy for those two. |

The biggest part of that is “if Panthers get 4 points”.
Championship form required from the bottom team.
