2 points off 6th, 8 off 5th, 11 off 4th and miss the play offs. Gutting. A great effort at the end. Plenty of games can be pointed at as to where it was lost, but very proud of that group of players. A season like no other.

A season like no other. Couldn't agree more. Actually thought Fife would win, seemingly won the harder fixture, that being the away game.

Looks like Coventry 6th, Dundee 7th and Fife 8th.
Us and Clan miss out but they get the wooden spoon.

Cant blame any other team for where we finished over the course of the season, but of this last weekend that Cardiff result yesterday was a sickener.

Did Fife rest Owen, as I said before, they did the hard part but somehow they finished 8th and gave themselves Sheffield. You're right about having to rely on others but Cardiff deserve to lose to Dundee on that Coventry result alone

Credit to Coventry and Dundee. Coventry looked like they didn't have a win in them a week or two back, let alone two, and Dundee have played with the backup in for a lot of games this year.

Flames outshot Blaze 45-20. Hit the post with 2ish minutes left which would've made it 4-4. They also pulled their goalie to try get the points. They certainly wern't taking it easy. Sadly Burman had a save % of 80%.

Let’s hope karma visits those who mucked about….it has a habit of doing so.

Anyone think we'll get any upsets in the Quarter's.
Cardiff look shaky but will probably be too strong for Dundee
Belfast should do over Coventry but they could be feeling inspired after the weekend results.
Sheffield have to play their home leg at a smaller venue which should be better for Fife who somehow managed to finish 8th when it seemed to be easier to finish 6th
Not counting Manchester VS Guildford because whoever wins is not an upset.
As it relates to Play-Off Weekend if only 1 of the Blaze, Stars or Flyers make it, would they be competitive or would it be a hammering.
I have no I'll will towards Guildford but Manchester did a lot of favours this season, so it would be nice if they made it to the dance

I'm not expecting any.
Fife ended Sheffield's "road blokes" nonsense, but over two legs can't see it. Sheffield will be very keen to clean up I expect.
Dundee might get an inspired Naas and Valentini against some potentially iffy Devils goaltending, but they'll also likely have the backup in at the other end. Again over 2 legs can't see it.
Coventry are probably the most likely over Belfast. I'd still bet on the Giants though.
Flames/Storm is a coin toss. I think Storm will edge it.

I have no I'll will towards Guildford but Manchester did a lot of favours this season, so it would be nice if they made it to the dance Since we can't win it in honour of Adam this year I'll be going full in on backing Manchester to hopefully lift the cup. They put their arm around our players and organisation by agreeing to help the players return to the ice with the #AJ47 memorial game. A game that must have been difficult for them to negotiate and know how to handle. When our players needed them, the Storm stepped up. That will never be forgotten by this Panther fan. So I'll be cheering them on and wishing them nothing but success for the rest of the season. They have my complete and total respect.

Strange situation in Glasgow, with the coach suggesting the netminder had a concussion during the final game with Cardiff, then all hands to the pump to backtrack given the player welfare issue that brings up. www.eliteleague.co.uk/article/3874-glasgow-post-game-interviewIs Morgan already signed on for next year? I know they've tied up Pelech and Combs, but I'd assume there'll have to be a bit of turnover up there given their worst ever performance. The assistant coach has already gone.

I saw the above on X. Bizarre stuff. Indeed, all appears to be based on the internet's interpretation of what a "mild concussion" is and what it means. Never a good idea to get an interview when emotions are still high. No-one comes out of it smelling of roses.

Would have been very interesting to see what would have happened had Clan won the tie and then Cardiff appealed against the Clan playing a guy who technically was ineligible and shouldn’t have played. Lol No wonder the EIHL gets called a “beer league”….it is ! 🙄

"Karjalainen passed a precautionary concussion test prior to the game and was confirmed to be fit and ready to play on the completion of pre-game warm-up. Had Karjalainen not passed this precautionary concussion test, he would not have been cleared to play." That's you just making stuff up again? Lol

Lol I saw the original un edited interview,Morgan said the goalie had a concussion and a sprained wrist too,no mention he had even had any test. You think or believe what you like,I think the EIHL are just trying to cover up a very bad cockerel up.

Give over mate, that’s a ridiculous stretch even for you 😂 He didn’t mention concussion tests in his interview no, and I was shocked at first watching that, but Stephenson has certainly put an alternative perspective on it. I don’t know medical tests more than most folk, but I imagine the netminder wouldn’t have played if he felt he wasn’t able to at the very least after tests.

You think or believe what you like,I think the EIHL are just trying to cover up a very bad cockerel up. That's just the point isn't it? Whilst the interview said that, it's been subsequently clarified. You still want to have the interview as your only source? You're just ignoring the later clarifications (from the club, its captain and the league) as it suits your agenda. There are professional medical people involved at the Clan who I'm sure wouldn't want themselves involved in any underhand doings. And what specifically makes a player "technically ineligible" anyway? Do tell... Maybe Morgan chose his words badly, used them loosely, or maybe he didn't frame his comments properly, or not, but you can't unequivocally infer any kind of "We knowingly forced a medically unfit goalie to play because we wanted to get in the play offs" mess up from a single interview, made shortly after the Clan's season (that promised so much, let's not forget) had just been ended. We'll agree to differ. No one comes out of this smelling of roses, no, but that doesn't necessarily mean there are nefarious goings on.

Don’t believe everything the powers that be tell you in the EIHL that’s all i’d say. I’ve seen and read some of the bull that gets put out when i’ve known what really went on at the time and then i laughed when the fans took it as gospel just because their beloved team said so. That’s one of the reasons i left it behind and walked away after 20 years,it’s just so amateur and false at times. There are much better things to do with my time these days than watch that crap.

Evidence does rather suggest otherwise Didn't someone just say don't believe everything someone tells you??? 😂😂😂 Interestingly the Cambridge Dictionary definition of walk away... "to stop being involved in a situation because it is difficult to deal with or does not give you any advantages" Offered without comment

Yet you’re endlessly on here cherry picking certain fact to paint your agenda, liking every goal against us on game threads and seemingly poring over interviews of various coaches. If you’ve got so many better things to why doesn’t that extend to posting here? Because the amount of time you’re on here suggest the opposite
