Devils v Flames

[kingmo19.1]

Belfast - LOST, Steelers - LOST, Devils LOST!

As you we're so to speak for the big 3.

(Pleased that Dundee won).

Looking at the EIHL gamesheet we could be in trouble.
Second 10mins for Riley,10mins for Linglet and Jardine seems to have lost it at the end.
Riley total is 27mins,Jardine 20mins,Linglet 12mins i think.
A lot of abuse of officials by the look of it.Devils reviewed Flames 1st goal so i suspect Lordo must have been pretty upset again.

jardine had a fight at the end of the game, meaning he’s only gone and got ANOTHER BLOODY SUSPENSION!

 

[kingmo19.1]

If my math is correct, if Jardine keeps going as he is, he'll clock up 200 PIM's this season in the league!

26 mins of penalties in the last 10 minutes certainly didn't help the cause.

interesting set of results in the league . were we just beaten by a better team on the night or did we play bad time to watch the highlights.

We've gone from sterile non-contact to passion mental in one weekend

There's a sensible halfway house there somewhere !

Sounds like frustration with officials again. Where has the likes of Smejkal gone? These are the kind of guys we should be bringing in.

Would that include a repeat offender or not?

 

[CDevilsFan666]

Would that include a repeat offender or not?

I assume so, but I’m not certain

 

[BostonBart22]

Would that include a repeat offender or not?

its normally a 2 game ban fighting after game for both players, repeat offender for jardine could be 4 or 6 game ban , and we got belfast soon.

 

[mjh]

To be honest, with the amount of time he spends in the box, we might be better off without him for Belfast!

 

[Mazzoak]

Haven’t seen the game, but, reading these comments, bloody hell, seems it’s all or nothing with this team.

WTF...........

 

[jenks33]

We could well have Jardine, Linglet and Riley missing for that Glasgow match on Wednesday. And after their hammering tonight I’m sure Fitzy will have them fired up for that one. Could be another tough night on the road for us

So for those that were wondering if we were ever going show our physical side, I think the guys answered it this weekend. Riley with a 5 + 2 + 10. Accounted for himself well apparently

But we LOST what's good about this

 

[pjj365]

But we LOST what's good about this

SoG - G26 D20
PIM - G40 D76
Physicality served us well there then!

Lost 3-1 poor poor poor

Different folks and all that.... I actually thought it was one of the better performances, cracking game of hockey that could have gone either way... I presume you are referring to the final 10 minutes but even that... I would defy any team to bounce back given what happened! Poor is harsh IMHO

I’m not at the game so I don’t know if we played well or not, but losing in Guildford doesn’t mean we choked. They are a good team and very difficult to beat on their home ice. I’ll wait for reports from those who were there before being too critical.

It was a bonkers game of hockey, one of my favourite (if frustrating) for some time. We actually played well, although let our frustration at the officiating show near the end.
Defensively we were MUCH better with more emphasis on team D and Jardine a rock (yes really!) We also knocked Flames around when we realised that the refs were not going to call anything which was good fun but had the inevitable conclusion when they suddenly found their whistles.
I am always loath today criticise officials but, it was a shambles today, if I was a Flames fan I would have been fuming for 50 minutes. Riley levels Davies miles after the puck has gone, no call. Louis breaks a stick slashing Watters, no call, then a Flame taps a Devil and gets 2 minutes. In the last 10 minutes the roles were reversed and that was when he lost the plot.
To be honest that performance was more positive than negative, far more aggression, far better D and unlucky not to get something out of the game.
Cracking match

Great to hear the positives. I'm guessing the next time the EIHL board meet , officiating will be on the agenda, given the comments so far from coach interviews, or we as in the EIHL, are going to lose some talented players
