Great for 2 periods and clearly took the foot off the gas for the third. Either way we were the better team by far tonight. What does poor Miika need to do to get a shut out?! Thought their first goal should not have been allowed - we were a player down and another was clearly being held on the boards - overall the ref had a decent game and let it flow - but as usual there were a few incidents that he missed, the above being one.

I rest my case. He was totally anonymous in a Blaze team that stunk the arena out tonight. If that's your case rested then you're a pretty poor lawyer. He has no chance playing for that team. Your remark does not make sense - he would have no chance of playing for who?

Lawrence was and will always be garbage in my eyes not fit to lace some of the current players skates, who are hard working professionals everything Lawrence is not.
Great win tonight panthers . Seriously hope Ling slots onto Schultz's and bombers line !!!!

And for that 5th goal it truly can be said to Stewart "it's all your fault!" - first he takes the dumb penalty, then he goes a-wandering and gifts us with an empty net! Very dodgy kick off the boards for that one in fairness, although he'd maybe gone too early. I didn't think he was terrible actually, I know he's a panto villain for our crowd but I think it was more than 6 without him. Coventry were dreadful. Long season for their fans I reckon. We clearly eased off at the end, some good goals though and miles better than them, liked Ollie's finish into the roof of the net to start us off.

Dominated the first 2 periods and then really did slack in that 3rd, felt sorry for Miika when that goal went past him poor guy deserves a shutout! I personally thought Clarke had a decent game and his goal was a cracker and was impressed with Betteridge's goal too.
Never seen that ref before but was happy with the officiating apart from a couple of calls, mainly the instigator penalty on Macmillan when he fought Noble.
Didn't really see much of their new guy but when I did he was always winding people up and blatantly cross checked one of our players in the first period which was never called. I've missed shouting "STEWAAARRTT" lol

Fantastic night, I don't know if a panthers fan could've asked for more; goals, fights, taking the win and the chance to shout at Stewart until he was taken off.
Although it would've been nice to see Coventry take a few more licks I thought it was quite sensible to slow up the pace for the 3rd, no point risking an injury kicking a team while they're down.

Thought we were brilliant in the 1st 2 periods, it was understandable that they took the gas off in the 3rd and it seems that teams do not want to get physical with us (which is a refreshing change).
I've got a feeling that we will see a completely different Coventry side when they next come here. I'm actually surprised that that Chuck Weber wasn't trying to recruit players during the game.
I can actually See Stewart playing for a different Elite League side this season. His numbers must be horrible which too be fair he doesn't really deserve as he is a really good Goalie.
They really need to put the hit Janssen put on the Coventry player who was trying to stop him on You Tube (and other teams fan forums lol)

Brilliant performance tonight, always feels good giving the blaze a tonking but they didn't make it very difficult for us! Great scrap from Macmillan, plenty of fight in this team, some great goals tonight and plenty of chemistry! Stewart was poor and we took full advantage of that, it's great winding him up just to see his reaction and another highlight was seeing Noble cling on for dear life to stop Janssen from unloading on him, I think he needed a change of underwear

I didn't want Lawrence back, but he put up numbers that others didn't manage last year. He wasn't as bad as some are making out.

I think the biggest problem with Lawrence last year wasn't what he did do, but what he didn't. He could have done a hell of a lot more than he did, and everyone knew it. Yes, he ended up our top scorer... but without anywhere near the level of commitment that we've already seen from this year's roster (and yes, that does speak well of his native abilities... just not his will or motivation). Just think of the effect it may have had if he'd given it 100% all the time...

Don't think Stewart had a bad game at all. He had an average game instead of standing on his head. The team in front of him were woefull. Even the 5th was difficult to blame him for(poor penalty aside). As a goalie making that play he was simply screwed by a bad bounce off the boards.
Having said that I couldn't celebrate the 5th as I was too busy peeing myself with laughter. Great villain but not actually as bad as the stick he gets by a long shot.
Panthers were great. Quite simply a 40min game. The last 20 were almost irrelevant.
Really excited by this team. Even in the championship year nobody was this excited at this point of the season(actually quite the opposite).

Credit to the announcers for playing "Lazy" when Lawrence got his penalty.
Great performance tonight.

Anyway, thought we were great when needed tonight. Really came out of the traps.
Blaze are poor, very poor. I wanted to punch their number 56, right little toe rag.

Noble is a right pain and doesn't know when to stop, I was getting sick of him, was just wishing someone would fight him again or for Janssen to steamroll him through the the boards. Great agitator but an awful player.

Great agitator but an awful player. speaking of agitators I think kolnik is great like ling I loved it when he was screening Stewart and Stewart pushed him then he put his stick in front Stewarts eyes and Kolnik drawed a 2 mins for roughing pen

Did anyone else think Myers looked like he was carrying a bit of a knock? He still played well but he didn't throw the body as much and his face looked in pain - I could be completely wrong!

Jordanoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo- no I did not miss the if, but it never ceases to amaze me how some fans always wish success to ex players when they come up against us - Like most people (I hope), I like it when ex players have success against other teams, just not us, the same goes for cheering them onto the ice when they play us - once they have left they then become the opposition, and as such should be treated like it. - IF we lose then I hope it is anyone other than an ex player or Tanaka who scores the goal Amaze huh? Crikey.... My stance on this is entirely down to what I believe to be unjustified criticism of a player. I would have had Lawrence back, with our roster this season he'd score 40 goals easily. And that is why you are not a hockey coach, if you want to be successful you avoid players like Lawrence like the plague

Kolnik taking a leaf out of Avery's book, guarantees to put goalies off their game, brilliant!
