Success of last year's game - really? I may be wrong, but I seem to recall it not selling out, and wasn't that in the 2500 capacity SkyDome? Thanks Elite League for making it midweek again - great for Cardiff, Belfast, Edinburgh fans because Sheffield's just up the road and none of us got work that week :roll:
On a more positive note, I like the idea of Brits v Oversea's, although if played to full potential, surely the oversea's would win comfortably - I'm sure it'll actually be 12-11 either way on the night though :roll: Opps, sorry, I was supposed to be being positive. Giving the fans the chance to vote for who plays sounds good - although there's clearly more Sheffield / Nottingham fans who will therefore get what they want - makes sense seeing as they'll be making up the majority of the crowd - oh dear, this really is a negative response. I think I'll stop now

Ice Sheffield is probably a better venue than Skydome, as it is only 1500 seats, but has be room and facilities for the surrounding stands etc.
I guess, until they get a format that seems to work for them, they wont give up a whole week for the event (as they did in the NHL).
It would be nice to see the event take off...and have the full day of fun.
