Had Minsk not put in a bid, they would not have been selected irrespective of how they finished the group. :-) What a bizarre thing to state! Of course Minsk wouldn't have been selected if they hadn't offered to hold it, the IIHF can't force a team to host their competition! But by virtue of seeding, which you now concede is a factor, Sheffield would only have got it if two other teams turned it down, putting to rest the conspiracy/stitch up claims some of your fellow Steelers fans have been making. You're not making sense at all there mate. Why would you bid for an event and then turn it down? Anyway, I'm not arguing, I'm sure you know more than me, a mere employee of the club that's just bid for it. :-)

I think 'seeding' is almost certainly used as one of the factors. But you still have to bid, you are not simply offered this. Had Minsk not put in a bid, they would not have been selected irrespective of how they finished the group. :-)

Nothing is 'turned down'. Teams have to bid to host the event. This year, 3 teams bid and Minsk was selected. I'm disappointed, but have no issue with the decision. :-)

He made it in the end.
I'm sorry you feel that way TooToo. But if he wasn't, 3 nobodies like El, Deano and I wouldn't get the PR or raise anywhere near as much.

So. David (Simmsey), Elliot and I are walking again, this time joined by Dean Woolley. It will be 3 years since we walked 110 miles in 3.5 days for Amy Usher, raising 35K in total. (Thanks again for the wonderful support last time) This time we are walking from the Sheffield Arena, to the SSE arena in Belfast. We will be splitting the money between Western Park Teenage Cancer (For Amy), and young Blake the Giants fan. Blake desperately needs a new wheel chair, and we hope to raise enough money to help with the huge cost. The walk will be in Feb, to arrive for the Steelers V Giants game on the 24th. We won't stay the game though, once we have said hello to everyone we will need to get straight back on the ferry so we can get back for the Steelers supporters club annual sponsored walk Sunday morning, and then to work the Steelers game that night. Please donate here. www.gofundme.com/simmsey-and-friends-again>>CLICKY<<Let's help young Blake get the new chair he needs. Thanks all, really appreciate it. And if anyone wants to push the link put around your social media/club forums, please do! Thanks. Nem. :smile: Please move if needed Mods. Thanks.

Mr Black has no involvement with the KHL. It's a previously unknown (in U.K. Hockey circles), stonkingly rich banker.

I can't win on an opposition forum getting involved in discussions like that mate. It is shown on the highlights. I just did my job and helped get his wife to him, and him sorted and into the care of the ambulance crew. The important thing is he is OK, something we can all be relieved and pleased about. :-)

Game recap is up on Steelers TV. Glad Miika is OK and was swiftly released from hospital after check ups. We take no chances on the ice and take every precaution we can. Hope his wife is feeling better too.

Great effort Panthers. Well done. I hope the CHL see sense with the wildcard picks. Top job all round.

Another great weekend. Enjoyed it. There is nowhere else for me. Wembley when and if, but until then there's nowhere better. Nice to meet a few of you who came and said hello. Thank you to my army of sellers, another great effort on the raffles. And last but not least. Congratulations. See you again next year.

Richard1969 if he's still on here has a sports framing business. He was gracious enough to do my Steelers game worn shirt for me with my medal some years ago. Try him mate, if he's no longer around I can hook you up with Matrix frames in Worksop. They are also specialist sports framing dudes and very very good. :-)

As I just posted on the other thread, there are Panthers fans selling tickets on Twitter. And of course, there will be some available elsewhere around the arena. Don't think there will be many "Panthers" fans selling - Sheffield maybe!!!!!! Not the case so far today I'm afraid. As many Panther to Panther sales as any others happening on Twitter and other teams forums. I don't see the problem and why some want to wear this as some sort of badge? Peoples plans change all the time, what's the issue? In fact of the Final 4 teams, the only ones where there have been wants but no (that I have seen) sells is Fife. The event has sold out, tickets will move owners around ALL sections. :-)

While Valabik is playing there's always plenty of man advantage opportunities. I just hope to god the meatball doesn't give us a repeat of the Sjogren incident, he tried more than once at our place Sunday.
