"Mickey Mouse" trophy - been there, done it, would be nice to beat them, but not that bothered, would be happier if a few scores could be settled, then onto the league. I think it's as 'Mickey Mouse' as any national tournament now. League as long and awkward as this Cup competition is short on excitement. One day we might get a Cup and Play-Offs that are worth their Elite titles.

Allegedly (according to a Steelers fan) their new guy won't be icing tonight and they will be missing 5 other imports...
... or it could be another load of rubbish being spouted and they turn up with a full bench. With that bunch of wombats, who knows?

My "Mickey Mouse" comment was a dig at Squeelers previous years comments when they have failed to win it - would still like us to win though, but getting bored with playing against a 2nd division team

The CC is always going to be a Mickey Mouse revenue raiser and a booby prize in possibly an otherwise poor season for teams and that’s fine so long as the games are entertaining and as the league gets better then I have no problem with that now.
The best thing about Steelers games now is the bigger away support which helps atmosphere I suppose.
Let’s hope our defence turn up unlike last time at the for sale board development with the shot ice plant and we send them back up the M1 with severe testicular bruising.

Anyone know if Jamtin is playing for Steelers tonight. Their site shows him as travelling with the team and there is a number 42 on ice training with no name?

Panthers completely out played Steeeres that period, I don't care what the score line says, 23 shots and Sheffield were clinging on by their nails at times. Sheffield, as ever, have the luck.

Powerplay is an absolute joke.

Powerplay is an absolute joke. 1 goal on 36 shots including 6+ minutes of PP. Steelers have scored 3 on 17 shots. Dominant, over elaborating, unable to finish.

Clarke NEEDS to come off the powerplay, and we need Mosey in his place

Clarke NEEDS to come off the powerplay, and we need Mosey in his place The PP is a disgrace tbh. We look seriously short on goals at the moment, I think we need to make 1-2 changes. We looked great the first two periods in terms of passing and moving the puck up the ice, but we are woeful in front of the net. The third was poor, continually dumping the puck and chasing and most of the time gifting possession as they move the puck out of their zone. At least it was only a CC match but next week is a different matter, will be poor to go down 3-0 to that lot so early in the season.

The team continue to frustrate and amaze in equal measure. Having dominated that first period we should have been 5 nil up but we just didn't manage to take our chances and then we let them back in on it. Can't really complain about the result although the better team lost! Please please Corey sort out the power play!!

Corey’s power play has always been continuous passing until the perfect shot appears, which has so often resulted in continuous passing, losing the puck and no shots. This has royally peed me off for years! It will never change.

We got worse as the game went on.
Moose rode his luck. Struggled to pick a mom for us.
After the Lord Mayors show on a huge scale. Continue to struggle domestically.
As for the powerplay. Would love (hate) to see our 5 on 4 stats.

So many average players tonight
PP is like a PK, faceoffs are garbage
Wouldn’t be so bad if we screened the nm every now and again. So many rebounds from Moose, not that hard to work out what to do

This has royally peed me off for years! It will never change. Only times we had a decent powerplay in the Neilson years was with Tessier and Ling wasn't it?

Another frustrating domestic game. We just cant score. Our scoring percentage is awful. We make keepers look good.
For me its time to change the lines. We're basically playing with one scoring line. Phillips and Derlago have not clicked and need splitting up to see if we can get anything out of them.

Dominated the game but failed to convert many chances. Why? Because we directed straight at the centre moose. Goal tenders must love playing us, we make them look exceptional
