Welcome to the new hockey season. Pre-season has gone pretty well with four wins thus far.Lordo looks to have recruited the new boys well, Now the serious competition starts.
Good to see the nucleus of last years championship winning roster back for another season. We are hoping to have reasonable coverage tonight of the game in Switzerland but please bear with us as we get the off season cobwebs out of our system and hope for a technical hitch free coverage.
Tonight ,all being well, hosting duties will be shared between myself (Russky) and OJ, who will be covering the build up and first period action, and myself, for the remainder of the game. If you have a predictions or Commenst please send it to matchnightlive@gmail.com and we will do our best to include it as long as its broadcastable.
Until we are back on air from about 6:30pm we hope you have a good day.
