Unsurprisingly, I think we on here are rumbling towards the negative again.
Offensively we had some good looks, occasionally stopped by very good saves and occasionally we took the wrong option in front of goal.
But in a game where the opposition clearly came to make it as physical as possible, we controlled big chunks of the game, kept the puck well (I think Haddad broke some poor bloke’s ankles in the first) and got the win.
I thought defensively storm collapsed really well, and did make it harder for us to pull the trigger sometimes.
Missing Riley and McNamee means we are playing with lines who didn’t spend pre-season playing together, so some little niggles can be put down to that.
Martin somehow remains the best player in the league, let alone in our team.
I’d also add that the other Joey, fit and healthy, has really shown up some of the guys who were calling for him to be replaced in the summer.
