Sounds positive as long as we come out firing on all cylinders and knock the wind out of their sails early. With a short bench they’ll see a chance to grind a result out if we don’t.

Here’s hoping.

Nottingham name 18. 10F & 6D.

Will Kerlin starts backed up by Luca Sheldon.

They are without Kevin Carr, Steve Lee, Ollie Betteridge, Massimo Carozza, Jack Hopkins & Morgan Clarke-Pizzo.

Should be an easy win with no Carr.

That’ll do for a start 2-0.

Talk about an easy win....

So after a good first 6-8 minutes first period where we played the type of hockey that Fox likes, fast skating, slick passing we have completely lost our way. ASD seems to be on a one man mission tonight to gift them loads of opportunities. Our three top line centres aren't imposing themselves on the game at all with Hodgman sadly being the flakiest, biggest culprit (as usual im afraid to say).
A big third period needed.

Two average looking sides going at it. David Phillips easily the best player on the ice.

I'll go 4-2 instead of the 8-1 I originally predicted!

[Clowne57]

Have to say their goalie has made some really good saves. We need to go up a gear at least next period.

[paul johnston]

Most teams struggled against us when we play our full throttle fast game. It's just we barely play it for 10 minutes per night.
We've completely lost our way going forward. Quite a few guys anonymous.
