End of the 1st here

13 shots on Kamil Kosowski that period who looks pretty handy despite an iffy rebound for the 1st Panthers goal

Second Panthers goal was Matt Francis (21) , 6:57 lovely top shelf shot

Great comments from Nigel on the 1st - Entertaining 1st period, especially when you consider some of these guys have only had 1 practice session together. New nettie could do with staying in his net - he was lucky a couple of times. He can't know hour unpredictable the boards are at the BBT. sizeable rebound for the first goal and in fairness to Kalus he didn't have much gap to aim for but he put out away well. Beginning to think Broadway Tom only has one arm! Plumton only has to look at Darnell the wrong way to be shown to the box. Neither Devils penalty "should" have been called - first one was a dive that Tom Daley would have bern proud of and the second was pathetic Panther play acting. There must be a sniper in the crowd somewhere, samd old same old.
