Will the BBT be a fortress again?

I certainly hope so. If there was one small thing I missed last year (not saying I would change it btw) it was a bit more of the the rough stuff! This year we have a big team, small ice pad and the loudest most intimidating fans in the league - all the receipes to make it extremely uncomfortable for away teams coming to our rink.

Guess so,but this year I think it could be brutal at times.Last year Weller was too good a player to drop the gloves and sit out penalties,I can see Voth smashing people about and Franks knocking people about.Throw in Max and Hills checking and it could well be very hostile.
the guys have to show up from the first game, usually the devils are slow to start we cant afford to be like that this season. we have to put wins on the board from the off to bred confidence and to generate the winning mentality hopefully this yrs team will have that and will fight for every point and never give up in a game until the last hooter. last yrs team never knew when they were beat so expecting the same this year if that happens the BBT wont be a nice place to visit on a sat/sun
The BBT has been a particularly difficult and intimidating place for other teams for the past 2-3 seasons.
The Devils' home record is fantastic, especially last year. And they know that a key element of mounting a successful title challenge starts with nailing as many home games as possible, especially from the start. Expect more of the same this season.

Average Height of Squads so far (according to Elite prospects):
Cardiff: 185 cm
Hull: 183 cm
Nottingham: 183 cm
Sheffield: 183 cm
Coventry: 182 cm
Dundee: 182 cm
Braehead: 181 cm
Belfast: 179 cm
No point in looking at Edinburgh or Fife yet as they have signed so few players. At the moment we are certainly the biggest lineup and a lot bigger than Belfast!
