Experience has taught me that when it really matters the only person you can rely on is yourself.

Hit the red line and dump the puck in with fifteen minutes left. Bloody stupid and look how it ended. Handed all the impetus to Sheffield.

Massive shame but in all fairness the Devils looked in a different class today and would have steam rollered us tomorrow playing like we did if we had of edged through. The third period was a disaster and pretty much showcased our season.

Regarding the NIC - good to have extra seating in, but there is a real lack in toilet facilities - ridiculous queues - also the announcer was inaudible. People were leaving the building to use the toilets in the nearby pubs. Absolutely ridiculous situation.

As others have said that summed up our season but we were the better team for most of it!
Still I'm gutted to lose in OT to 'them lot'
We just don't have a clue what to do when leading a game,lack of experience or lack of decent coaching?

We start to bottle it and fail to clear the zone then go into dump mode which put us continually under pressure and one thing Sheffield can do is score goals.

Got the feeling we never felt we were going to win and they never felt they were going to lose. And so it was.

I hope to god it's not 5 v 5 for 20 minutes over and over. That was a borefest last year. Got to the point where I didn't care who scored just wanted to leave. The players looked shattered which makes the game even more dull.
I don't understand what's wrong with a penalty shoot out. I also don't agree with 3 v 3 but hey that's another debate.

So we win the "consolation" game, 8-2. Clarke with the final goal. Was that rather allowed to happen? I see he was unassisted.

Just go back to the England Scotland game. At least that used to get abit feisty. And the players cared. Or maybe invite the best uni teams in the country to play for a cup. Just something where the teams actually care.

I understand there is a problem even getting an international on or is it the crowds are low. But it's far better than this 3rd/4th drivel. Look at it, real contest eh? NO PENALTIES all game,that's the interest and heart in thaty one.

We could always just schedule an annual Clan v Panthers game for the Bermuda cup,seeing as neither team usually have much else to do these days come POFW Sunday ! 🙄

They could use the slot for the culmination of some sort of cup competition for lower level, or amateur level, uni teams would work, put up a few quid that you were going to pay to a Canadian cheerleader to make it attractive to win, play qualifiers throughout the season etc to end up with 2, keep us in the loop as it goes on, get the league's name out there beyond the 4 walls of EIHL HQ. Would take a bit of forward planning though and they like to change the rules mid season so that won't happen.

Only issue with that would be friends and families of said teams would want to be able to come and watch but wouldn’t want to pay the £80 for the weekend or even just a day ticket. 3rd/4th gets 5000 fans in, the league won’t budge if that keeps up

That'd be up to them, IMO, I wouldn't really see that as an issue. So you don't get mum and dad watching, bad luck. You get the chance to win a few quid and play in front of a big crowd, and the big crowd hopefully gets 2 teams busting it to try and win.

Doesn't help that they cut the one decent sized gents toilets in half last summer. Still, gotta get that extra bar in. Bermuda brewed beer won’t sell itself!!

0-0 after one in the final. Decent enough game so far, but cagey.
