Problem is...it seemed to fire up the Blaze that Robinson stood up to D'Amour.

Your right ... tonight the referee was a disgrace ... how he gave that netminder interference after St Pierre had interfered and high sticked Greg Owen i'll never know.
Not to mention the build up to the first panthers goal when Neilson removed an oppositions stick from the ice ... something which is minor penalty.
Good game tonight ... but this league is a million miles from over

Hicks did have an effect on the game, but IMHO not to the extent that has been commented on. From a blaze fan to admit that is tantamount to admitting he handed them the two points. As for the high sticks not really being high sticks at best the photos are ambiguous imho it looked to me that the stick that scored the goal was well over shoulder height ie a high stick.. As stated though dont put in the effort you dont get the rewards, its that simple but we all know a ref can had has influenced results in our league...

We played relatively poor yesterday at times and from the sound of it quite bad tonight, maybe that thrashing in the 20/20 has affected our form

We worked hard but got nowhere really,never put Coventry under any sustained pressure, but thats difficult when you take penalty after penalty. Coventry played pretty well and limited us to mainly long shots which wern't gonna beat Hirsch when he could see them all the way. Hicks wasn't very good,lino's iffy at best,3rd goal should never have stood as definate high stick for that one. D'amour hammered Robinson,never seen a fight start behind one goal and end up almost in front of the other goal before. Don't think Mr Robinson will fancy taking D'amour on again in a hurry,still at least he practised his skating backwards before he got clobbered !
Announcer doesn't seem to learn does he,still making the digs when he could.
And, to the Coventry fan on the back row of the block in front of the announcer (block 12 ?), yes the man in the grey top who got warned for offensive gestures. I do hope your wife and young 3 or 4 year old child are proud of you,because if i was a fellow Blaze fan i certainly wouldn't have been,you were a disgrace !!

AH...but my comment means his decisions affected BOTH sides Tex...The second Panthers goal was scored on a Powerplay given for the nonsence call on Owen. swings and roundabouts... Plenty of Panthers fans are saying you deserved these calls mate on this thread

Which part is ambiguous? The photo shows the puck in contact with the stick as it was struck. It's under crossbar height. That's not high sticks, really.

Cannot believe some of the doom and gloom on here, be thankful we dont support them up the road then you are entitled to be depressed. The problem for some I believe is they think we just have to turn up to win games, we have lost two all season both away in the league to probably the teams that will finish second and third this season!
Cov record is one each on the series of 8 and a cup win at the dome none too shabby really!

Mind you, you can clearly see something that the the ref, linesmen and coaches couldn't see after looking at the photos....

The problem with the offside calls was quite simple, there was always a delay of a few seconds from the linos before they called them, the reason was the Blaze assistant coach kept shouting OFFSIDE, hence the slightly delayed call. I stood opposite the blue line and there were about four calls that were rubbish, no wonder some of our players were upset.

Yes JV you are quite right,there did seem a long delay on a lot of offside calls.
Anybody else get the impression that a couple of our players seem to be getting pretty fed up of bad refs and iffy lino calls game after game.
Cameron Mann looks to me like he is totally and utterly racked off with them.

We were poor tonight. Plenty of huff and puff but TBH we didnt really threaten Coventry's goal until the final ten minutes. Seemed to me too many of our forwards had off days. The game never really flowed due to the number of silly penalties taken with neither side wanting to give anything away. It was only during our long spate of penalty killing that turned the game coventry's way. Hicks and the two linos were poor. Sadly we were poorer.

Still top despite the defeat.
Hopefully an early wake up call for some people.

firstly whats with the embarrasing thread title, no wonder us panther fans get a bad name get called arrogant etc when people do things like this. i asked the question too spence and have still to receive an answer. i agree, it makes us, the fans, who are a collective on this board look like fools. we are reprisented here by the thread title which, from an outsiders view, is the opinion of all fans. and i think that is out of line. i for one do not like anyone else putting words into my mouth and i dont want to be associated with people who type that sort of thing over an existing factual thread title. here is the part where i think its Shaggyi suspect this is the work of the lion bar seller who has gone power crazy. what with his newly acquired status it seems to me that he has abused his powers, which is reason enough to strip him of them. at least i was right about one thing... of course, if i am mistaken, then i apologise in advance, but it certainly seems uncharacteristically behaviour for any of our long serving mods/admin. i might not agree with them all the time, but they do a good enough job for the most part. so it wasnt Shaggy that is responsable for the cringeworthy title change, it was Shorty who has made himself, along with the rest of the people on this forum, look like an incredibly sore loser and someone who is by far the worst type of hockey fan, those who's pathetic effort to blame everyone else for the panthers shortcomings are just that. pathetic.*edited accordingly*

Page 7 Buster: I changed the thread title as I thought the incompetence of all three officials was leading the game. Panthers lost their discipline after a string of penalties not being called on Coventry, some amazing offside calls. I dont think I have ever seen so many face offs moved to the centre circle because of incorrect calls. They spoilt what should have been a very good game of hockey,.

here is the part where i think its Shaggyi suspect this is the work of the lion bar seller who has gone power crazy. what with his newly acquired status it seems to me that he has abused his powers, which is reason enough to strip him of them. Although you have edited your post to show that you did make a mistake... you really did go a bit OTT there, didn't you? Let's assume for a moment that it was me who changed that thread title (I was actually working the Lions game tonight and got back to find it as it is, but let's just imagine it had been me)... do you honestly think that is enough for you to go on about someone being "power crazy" and having "abused his powers"? Over-reaction, much? One little incident - which doesn't even count as abuse of a forum member, trolling or any of the other recognised offences - and that's enough for you to (metaphorically) call for someone's head? Take a chill pill, buster... you're going way OTT again. Even if it was your place to call for a moderator (however new) to be given the boot, this is hardly something serious enough to warrant such an action. As for the thread title itself... I personally don't particularly agree with it, but I don't think it's offensive/objectionable enough to call for the use (or abuse?) of moderator powers to change it, and I wasn't in Coventry anyway so have no personal basis for judgement. If one of the other mods chooses to change it, that's fine. But that would be their decision, buster - not yours. Fair enough?

A ban might stop you though. It's not up to you who runs this forum or how. If you don't like how this forum is run then go find yourself another one. For what it's worth, you can see who changed any thread title by looking at the "Last Edit: " comment at the bottom of the first post.
