I am shocked and dismayed that such things should happen to our players! I don't do social media of any kind which has to be a good thing. Can not the originators of such messages be named and shamed and prevented from watching ice hockey games at IAW?

Well that was wishful thinking!

If Pope has a scorcher, we can win this one!

Lightning quick - the signing or the player? (haha) I have a feeling there will be another signing also.

Blaze knocking on our door!

Apologise that previous post re Murdy was wrong. Took it off Elite summary page?

Murdy in goal.

Officiating tonight certainly was'what it is'. It was a disgraceful display by Rose and Darnell. Frustration cost us. Even Lord will have trouble keeping a civil tongue as to how this game was conducted.

This will be a huge game! Bet they will use last season Challenge Cup Final tactics , namely crash bang wallop and in general try to intimidate us big time . Lord always does his homework and will be wise to it. (Those hungry for atmosphere will not be disappointed)

I am sure that should we pick up an injury later on that Lordo and owners will do what they have to do. Meanwhile let's not rock the boat.

Manchester penalty stats just got worse - see DOPS.

If I got it right, they only had 14 skaters last night in Nottingham so they are a team with heart! Their visit to Cardiff in November deserves to be a sellout.

Surely atmosphere at the Arena is a two way thing. The fans feed off the player action and then the players feed off the fan reaction and encouragement. Sometimes it just doesn't happen. So be it- that's sport.

Could this become Processional ? - don't think so.

Some of the other teams might be a bit miffed about some of this content - such as Fife, Belfast, Nottingham. Sheffield are having a downer this season but they will come back and be competitive. As you say CHL was fantastic. Keep it going I say.
