Devils v Blaze - 28/10 6:00pm - CC - Chat/Updates

[scorchio]

My words of wisdom have been quoted on walesonline ... Very exciting and glad to see they recognise a good well throught out argument ....

J.B Your self appointed "wisdom", is neither constructive or at all edificating. My guess is that you weren't even at the game. Why don't you trip off and troll elsewhere. You really are an annoying tiny minded little worm. It's a pity when you posted your "well thought out argument" you couldn't use a spell checker Still you throught it was correct.

you are right about this blaze fan known as jb,looks like his has come on here just to troll and start trouble,as a blaze fan myself who was unfortunately unable to attend last night's game,and after having seen the youtube footage and also read the wales online article,it is clear to me that the refereeing standards in this league are nothing short of scandalous,how a league full of top professionals can be officiated by low rated amateurs is beyond me,Hicks and Darnell are always capable of screwing up a game with awful calls as it was darnell in charge of the infamous blaze panthers bench clearance,when I seem to remember he tried to escort cruickshank of the ice andf just let him attack kowalski.
Judging by the wales online article no further police action will be taken on this matter after interviewing all people concerned olson doesn't have a charge to answer as the article said a devils fan actuallly jumped over the railing to attack olsen,regardless of what devils fans may think of olsen there is no call for this type of behaviour in any elite league rink,and benn quite rightly defended himself even if he may have over reacted and started throwing a lot of punches as has been stated,however olsen,didiomete,egener,possibly birbraer for allegedly coming out of the dressing room deserve bans,think it would be fair to give both olsen and didiomete no more than 6 game ban perhaps,birbraer I feel may have been punished fairly for his role in the brawl,not sure how he ended up injured as I didn't see olsen's hit on max.
whwnever the blaze play the devils there is always animosity between the two teams and even the supporters which has got out of hand a few times before,this however is unnaceptable and all parties need to take a good look at themselves and their actions on both teams.
Could be an interesting game on november 25th when devils are home to the blaze,one can hope that both sides show constraint and team discipline.

That's a very reasonable post, but what on earth would Deeds get 6 games for?

**sorry i misread your comment, thought you were talking about Max ** No worries, posts quoting the original deleted

who knows..its the EIHL for pity's sake , lets be honest here, with either Hicks or Darnell we might have had this happen as fans of both sides i would guess wouldn't be happy with either of them...Both of them at the same game...

A disaster waiting to happen WD

Disgusted at what happened, both sides in the wrong and should have controlled what happened but I think it's fair to say Benn Olsen is the root cause of it. i was stood above the benches and during handshakes Olsen skated up to Franny on the bench and said "I'm not shaking your hand" , couldn't quite make out what he said after, wasn't sure if they were joking at first cause of the smirk on Olsens face but then he decided to wave his stick at Franny, Franny tries to grab it and everything kicks off. Actually saw a Coventry player say to Thommo something along the lines of 'this is all Benns fault' As other fans around me shouted to Thommo 'control your team,what do you call this?' Thommo replied 'that's what I call a win!' As for everyone saying max didn't leave the dressing room, he did in all fairness..Max had no jersey on hence a lot of people not noticing him, he didn't go back on the ice but when Egner decided to attack Franny, Max left the dressing room and jumped in at the end of the bench to help Franny, if I was him I would have done the same to protect your coach and I'm sure the majority of everyone on here would as well, not sure how people can expect someone to sit in the dressing room quietly with all that going on even if they have been kicked out beforehand. As far as the fan and Olsen, too many stories going around, I heard the fan didn't touch him, didn't have a chance and Olsen caught him in the cheek twice, no signs of anything on the fan after though. Either way, can't believe it got to that point. If Olsen doesn't get more than a match ban for ALL of his actions throughout the game and after i will be disgusted, it's bad enough Franny getting attacked by Egner and having a match for it whilst Egner gets a game ban I believe? Crazy! Cameron is a complete goon as well goading fans with his stick. Anyway, lets see what the league say.... Anyone else getting really bored of Mike Dantons tweets about deeds? Deeds isn't the toughest of enforcers we've had but I think he gave it a good go last night, Olsen obviously isn't as good with his helmet off even if he did still get some good hits in.

This is what I was thinking. From where I was sat Deeds was stopping Olsen from getting at Franny and others. I would be disappointed if he got anything more than the game misconduct he was assessed.

Decent video of Egener incident. Would think a match penalty for Francis and Egener would be fair.

You do realise Francis is a bench coach right? If DiDiomete punched Thommo would it "be fair" if both got a match penalty..

 

[jester]

Does someone not lash out at egner first?

 

[Lp 1]

It looks like Eggy lashes out at Franny first!

Same old classy blaze #stayclassyblaze << use on twitter

Honestly don't think it makes a difference whether he is a coach or not. It is clear he is chirping Egener and leaning over the bench. And then gets involved in the scuffle. Egener was provoked but shouldn't have got involved. A match each and move on.

 

[Wannabe2]

Egener wasnt punching Franny he was throwing a punch at Maxi, Franny happened to be alongside Maxi.

Players line up at end of game for handshakes, Guirdice says something to G who turns back to confront him. Meanwhile all the blaze players who have shaken hands are veering off to there right where officials are, that is except Olson who veers to his left and goes over to Franny, Olson then fakes a punch at Franny and Didio then confronts him and they both go for it, that then ends and Deeds is ushered off the ice. Maxi who hasnt returned to the ice is standing by the players exit door, and is having words with Egener, who has wanted Maxi ever since the Domish hit, Egener then skates towards Maxi, and Maxi who is still the other side of the boards moves towards Egener, they then throw punches at each other, Egener ice side of the boards, and Maxi bench side of the boards, that is what you can see in the video, Franny just happens to be very close by, after this mellee which by now has everyone involved finishes and as the Blaze players are exiting Cameron is attempting to spear Devils fans who are on the balcony above. What happened after that i dont know as i was de-rigging the camera equipment.

I didn't actually believe it was possible to be a bigger asshat wearing a blue and white shirt than Jurynec was, until this years team rolled into town last night and 3 or 4 of them all proved me wrong on the same night. WD

Not thats visible in footage he skates over and then launches himself at Franny or the general area he was in hard to see ... Maybe Franny did say something but as my Mum says sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me!

Look closely you can see someone throw a punch at Egner

 

[Tad#]

There's talks on twitter about getting rid of the handshakes. Some players think we should. Keefe and Clouts think they should. Keefe pointed out its pretty pointless as there's only a small amount teams in the league anyway.

I'd add the national anthems to that list too. We're not America, we don't need to play the anthems every game.

I have looked closely and all I can see is a Blaze player skating towards the Cardiff bench when what he should have done is skated off. It had all quietened down at that point then he made the ridiculous decision to go towards our bench and it all started again.

 

[redtilldead]

well i've seen some toilet scrapings grace the ice in cardiff over the years but gerome giudice opened my eyes to a hole new level of utter fowel mouthed depravity of which i've not seen since the 70's down the city. wot a horrible little man with conciderable issues. i'm all for heart on sleeve and all that but there were kids watchin. as for olson, 90 % of wot happened was down to him, he either started it or instigated it and as for the fan ( ok , he forgot to think it through, we all make bad decitions in life ) he did lundge at olson, but olson was more than happy to throw bombs rather than hold him at arms lenth till tommo's mate david dimms could come save the day, we've been hear before, we will be the vilans, we will get as many players band as thay can legaly get away with, etc, etc. but nothing will be done to the pair of clowns that spoil more of my hockey nights than any enfocer's have ever done, hicks and darnell. don't think i'd be the only one who's heart sinks when either one of the them skates out on match night, could not think it could get worse till the powers that be had a fantastic idea ! the pair of them refin the same game, wot could possibly go wrong ?

 

[Tad#]

The fans been banned for the rest of the season. Should of been more...
