The only surprise was that we let them have two goals. Well played Panthers and the Steelers looked a shadow of previous years.

I think it was also a bit of us not allowing them to get going, apart from some 2nd period spells. We scrapped for every puck and some good goals. I like how we penned them in the first 10 minutes. The Lacho - Biggs - Perlini goals was real class. Also remember we were missing Guptill. Also bodies in front of the net when we defended. Lachos rehabilitation continues.

Would say we are looking very good so far but don’t want to curse things.

My first game of the year, still had a pre-season feel about it to me but generally satisfied with what I saw from us.
A couple of lapses at the back and a few more soft penalties than I’d like but with a team still building chemistry there will be some silly mistakes. Luke Pither looks like he’s carrying off where he left off last year, very lively. Garnett also looked good.
We have a good mix of size and speed. Starting the season well has never been our problem though. The real judgment will come a few months down the line.
If I was a Sheffield fan I’d be more concerned. They were dross first period, couldn’t string 2 passes together. Second period their power play was a shambles after playing much of the period with the man advantage. Third period they just didn’t really raise their game.
For a club with their budget I think they need a better starter than Whistle, he didn’t have a bad game but if you’re having the extra import because of him they have to protect Whistle better because he’s nothing exceptional.
Martinelli looks like he’s played 50 games already. A long summer at the pub it seems.

Enjoyed the game, and the win, some good points, and just a few not so good, very much a "work in progress" for both team - but on the showing I know which team I would prefer watching

Anyone able to alert me to assists on all goals to do a check.Nothing on Elite OS. Only have 1 assist for Biggs, Billingsley, Lachowicz and Pither...was that it? 12 mins in pens in total. Total shots on goal on a 60min game for Garnett? EDIT:It's just come up on ELITE...so all ok, ta.Then again , nothing like what given by the club......so to confirm please who took penalties as this is omitted from Elite OS at present.Are these people at the same match...now says we won 5-3 with a goal from Jordon Owens at 17.40 in third for them??OOHhh, I give up now the assists are different in two places (player stats/game sheet) on the OS.Missing Pims and SOG still

Good performance. Dipped a bit in the second but reasserted ourselves in the third. Some lovely goals scored.
My god Steelers are awful. I wasn't impressed with them on paper and they look even worse on the ice. One of the worst Steelers performances I've seen in years. Martinelli. Why? Just why? complete waste of an import slot. The guy is 6'5" and fell like a sack of spuds when he was pushed by all 5'10" of Jon Rheault. What a joke
If Garnett keeps this up i'll be happy. Played brilliantly. The other standout for me was Jaynen Rissling. Defensively very solid and his finish for the goal was sublime. He might just be a gem

Well that was fun. Great to enjoy hockey again. Insane early forechecks in the 1st & 3rd set a nice tone & loving the high line penalty kill.
Pither has some melty hands & really liked Olsen at the back.
Fox Factor rating - 7.5

That was a good game of hockey!
We didn’t stop all game, few daft mistakes but all in all a vast improvement on the last few seasons. Not sure Sheffield knew what hit them, we were relentless at points.
I love our attitude and checking. Pither, Lacho, Doty and Henderson all had good games for me. Can’t fault our d, looked solid
Very bizarre Sheffield team, poor passing, losing Philips can’t have helped.

A professional performance that I felt we controlled from the start. Played big, fore checked hard and won all the battles on the boards. Second period wasn’t great but had we not made one poor decision and cleared the zone, we’d have gone in 2 zip up.I don’t know.
PK was good and that power play goal was sublime! Great to see team unity and the team seemingly enjoying the win. It’s good to get that win under our belts now.

I thought we were OK, think we can play a lot better though. Five nice goals for us mind.
I didn't personally think the Yorks were that terrible, I was expecting worse. Some good pace among the forwards at least and they put in a good shift in the second, just didn't make it count until we decided to knock off 10 seconds early. They also hit the pipes twice. Defensively, since Homer has been coach, they've always played a ludicrously risky style, I presume that's by design. I think they'll be there or thereabouts this year.
Anyone know why we've started this week, and no one else has?

Good first, dopey second with a frustrating missed opportunity to clear the puck letting Sheffield in. Excellent third where we seemed to go up a gear and just finished off the Steelers. Oh, and we have a powerplay.

Are these people at the same match...now says we won 5-3 with a goal from Jordon Owens at 17.40 in third for them? They've given Pitt a goal he didn't score in the first period, it was 5-2. They did score last, I assume it was Owens as it says there (didn't hear).

They might be there or thereabouts with some changes but unless Lawrence is free, polishing the teams skates, driving the team bus and hoovering Thompson’s house from top to bottom every week he is being overpaid and at the other end Jono Philips is carrying the team on his shoulders.

Yeah Lawrence is a very odd signing, dunno how he keeps getting jobs over here tbh. Thought that Eberle looked good, and McFadden at the other end. Even Whistle wasn't that bad, despite the chants, he got done by 5 good efforts (and two of them were one on ones).
