From the prospective of an "untrained" eye :shock: Very entertaining game last night. The Wightlink team brought a lot of support with them which made a pleasant change. At first I thought there was more of them than Cardiff supporters
There were lots of ooos, arghs and yeahs!!!! I thought the Devils worked really hard the 1st and 2nd periods securing a deserved lead. It looked as if they tried to slow it down the start of the third not appearing to put pressure on Raiders' goalie which resulted in Wightlink closing the gap. Fortunately, there was enough drive towards the latter 3rd period to secure the win
Lots of pushing and shoving going on. Some fights. Surprised to see Chris Hart and Steve Osman fight as he played with us last season and I assumed (through rose tinted glasses) you retain friendships with ex team mates. Obviously not!
Good to see Hayes back in a Cardiff shirt. He was involved in most of the point scoring. Wood had MOM. Well deserved.
Also good to hear Stone shouting on the ice at fellow team mates and Brabon shouting words of encouragement to the players on the bench.
Finally, don't know what happened that caused exchange of words/scuffle at the "handshake part" by the bench. Why do these things happen when you are looking the other way? It involved Jeremy Cornish and I think Sadler. Classic moment however when my 12 year old niece shouted "language" to Cornish during this exchange causing the players to look up and smile. It's recorded and we all had a laugh about that on way home. Thank you to everyone involved for a great nights entertainment.
