12 games against them last year!

I think I had a little graph or spreadsheet somewhere keeping track of how many times we'd played them compared to everyone else the past 5 or 6 years. I can see why we play them preseason, but it's not all that exciting seeing the same team so many times...

Shame we can't get a game against someone like Telford... Makes perfect sense from a financial point of view to play Coventry though, especially if it has to be an EIHL Team!? Maybe with it being the New Arena 2015/16 we could play a team like Boston Bruins :lol: :roll: ;)

While they are not the most exciting pre-season games, as others have said I'm just happy that given the ownership change we have been able to arrange some at such short notice. I'm sure once TK has had some more time in the role he will be able to look at other alternatives for next season.

the pre-season games are always hugely entertaining. We always travel up to Coventry and have had some absolute belters against them.

Conboy cleaning Olson out and jumping him & getting thrown - pre season last year.

Harvey vs Plumton (probably the best fight of the season last year with both guys leaving the ice for stitches).

Sure there was another fight up in Coventry too.

Marsh vs Harvey at the BBT - insane fight with both throwing haymakers.

I, for one, am glad we're playing them, as they were the best games that I attended last year!

I would quite like another game against them. Wouldn't be the same as last year that's for sure!!
