Hard game to call - head or heart ? Will have to rely on feeling in The Grapes. Cardiff really are becoming something of an enigma this term. They could spank us 5-0 or collapse on home ice and suffer an embarrassing loss. Meeting them three times in eight days could prove tasty. The Grapes Count = Devils 3 : Panthers 1. Would leave us with a big ask to win by three clear goals in the second leg.

I think this game will see our tiredness and short-bodiedness shine through unfortunately. We've played a hell of a lot of hockey recently and whilst we're managing to take two points more frequently than not, we tend to do it the hard way and with Bulmer, Deutsch and DeSantis all out I think this game will be that step too far. I pray I'm wrong however.
I hope we bring in some injury cover soon and even if we get all players back, I still hope we bring in some kind of extra import defenceman.

Surely we see some players return for this one?

I think we'll win by 2.
Is this a TV game?

I understand that probably at the time, it was a decent game to choose. But this game is much bigger. Panthers to win though. Weird to have that sort of confidence going into Cardiff

We won in Fife, as I predicted (not quite as comprehensively, but I've reigned that in this time).
Cardiff ain't all that this year. Only turn up when the owners are in town*.
* - Are the owners in town?
