They play Lausanne tomorrow evening. They started with a 3-2 overtime win over Lukko Rauma.

sd99, If you don't like someone's posts you can use the ignore function. Pot and kettle again. As for the Devils next CHL game, I expect another blow out. Line up the roster of the Devils and most of the CHL rosters and they would be considered outsiders against the majority of teams in the competition. Lausanne has an annual budget of between £10-15 million so it will be backs against the wall.

You tell me to ignore your post if I do not like it yet earlier this thread you said:
"Given the amount of utter crap spouted by both the Devils & some of their following on here then they are long due in my opinion".
I guess the ignore and carry on does not suit your narrative though. You could have chosen to ignore and carry on, yet you spout bitterness at any Cardiff related post.... and yes, it does reflect badly on the Panthers fanbase.
Anyhow, CHL....another spanking is expected. Mass gap in budgets and playing experience before you even throw in Covid and lack of prep. If the Devils keep it a close game they will have done well.

Key words 'some of', you were being given the benefit of the doubt, as you are now as well. There are a few Cardiff posters I think are total morons for sure, they are on block so they cannot converse with me in public. I have quite a few posters on block actually, it's a great feature that others should use then maybe threads wouldn't go off topic as often as they do around here. Anyway, if you want to continue this then just pm me, it's far better for the forum to chat in private over things like this. CHL - I expect you to get stuffed also, possibly not by such a high shot count though. The dice were certainly stacked against you last night for sure. Personally I hope you get battered again, obviously, but for the good of the EIHL it's better if you put up a decent fight.

Personally always thought Steelers obsession with us was a bit weird yet here we are 3 pages into a CHL thread with minimal constructive Hockey talk and some odd point scoring.
I am conjuring images of the Mitchell and Webb meme..."Are we the obsessed ones?"

Personally I've disliked Cardiff for years, their recent success actually has very little to do with it. Makes me laugh when this gets pointed out as a possible reason for any resentment. Hello, I actually enjoyed you losing when you were crap/broke. Anyway, CHL thread...

Why do you think everyone on here is a Devils fan, as far as I know I am the only Taff on here. Or do you have Welsh heritage.

That mountain just got steeper, if we can keep it within 4 that would be good.

I can’t help but feel the league’s decision to limit rosters to 14+5 is really going to affect the level of play this season. If teams get hit with injuries as well as covid isolations we could see teams decimated. In our case I can see Clarke-Pizzo and Hopkins getting a lot of ice time for us.

A very stupid move by the EIHL especially this year,but as always the hockey is secondary to money with them !

If the hospitalization rates continue on the same exponential growth through September as they have through late August then indoor arenas will be closed very quickly. Edit - Off topic a tad, apologies.

1-0 to Cardiff after 1 period, only seen the last 10 minutes of it but they've looked decent. Had a few chances beyond the goal.

Lausanne trying for the perfect goal.Lukko 5 Mannheim 1 final! maybe Mannheim aren't as good as Cardiff made them look on Thursday
