Barring a comeback, I think that's all she wrote on the season. I don't think we can realistically turnover a 5 point deficit in 8 games considering our opposition. Do we want to qualify for the play offs though? Paper over some huge cracks And get embarrassed over two games by the Steelers once again? While lining Neil Blacks pockets again I believe this will be the first time in Black's ownership that the team have failed to reach the playoff knock outs! It will give him something to ponder over I'm sure !

For me, Rok has been the biggest disappointment. I was pretty chuffed we'd snagged him but it’s rare he wins a game for us. I’ve been coming since 2010 and he’s been the worst starter I’ve seen in that time. He’s not even an improvement on Dubeau

Not just the Panthers worst defense ever but the worst defense I have ever seen in the EIHL. Beaten by Dundee with their backup Brit in the net.

Has being without Neill and Caruso been the difference?

I’d love to know the stats for how many times we conceded a goal within 2-3 minutes after we’ve scored. Seems to be every game where we score, and then immediately let one in. That's down to lack of focus and concentration! For a team who travelled down the day before you would think they would be laser focused for the full 60 minutes! To coin a Corey Nelson phase. Blimey we haven’t heard that daft “laser focused” phrase all season. Then again we haven’t heard from Neil Black all season ! We’ve heard “gold standard” quite a bit though. 🤣

Has being without Neill and Caruso been the difference? Well it has to be acontributing factor. Neill logs the most minutes, is the most creative and runs the powerplay. Neill and Caruso are also the top line and you’re then left with the likes of McGurty who just seems to get worse and worse. Tetlow, don’t need to elaborate on him and Kelsall dropped to D.

Yep. Never liked him either but he’s better than Rok We’d be higher up in the league if Carr was in net for us. 78% save percentage for Rok tonight

Thought about going for a good laugh but the thought of 90 miles each way in the dark made me see sense.

Some of the forwards in this team are very good and a good core can be made from them. However, the defence and goaltending needs scrapping and starting again. They’re just rubbish And the coach! What’s the betting he says after the game we “must work harder” again ! 🙄

Rok just doesn't have any middle ground. He's either outstanding or he is terrible. And when he's terrible he's really bloody aweful. The times he is outstanding are few and far between. When you then add in that we had arguably the worst no2 import i've seen since the trend began we were never really going to achieve a lot. To cap off the whole netminding farce we then had them being rotated out after having their best games. You'd be forgiven tonight for thinking Dundee had their number 1 import in and we had our Brit back up in.
Of course the D is weaker without Caruso and Neill. Then so much of what is wrong defencovely is down to team defence and forwards not picking up players. I heard a while ago that JP isn't much pf a coach regards systems etc. He's more of an engagement and team spirit guy. I think that may ring true. I will forever be greatful for them all this season, including JP, but that is a good group of D with some good forwards too. Perhaps the problem with the defence is the lack of a plan? Yet again we find ourselves with some very good players reduced to being written off once playing here.

Yes I know, 4 games in a week and I'm assuming 1 more tomorrow would probably do that. Not sure if that's a common occurrence across the leagues but I'm sure the back up would have played at least one of them. We probably should have gamed the system, claimed Rok was injured and got Emergency Cover

Has being without Neill and Caruso been the difference? Caruso has probably been our best defenceman this season and Neill makes so much happen offensively....both are massive misses for this team.
