We should still have enough, even with a short bench to not lose a 4 goal lead to bottom of the league. They’ve won 6 league games in 23 attempts.

Let’s hope we don’t pick up anymore injuries and get through this ready of Saturday.

3-2 Steelers.

Is there any news on Jonathan Phillips, he went down the tunnel after a few minutes on saturday and never returned.
He's not out often but when he is it tends to be for a long time.

Hopefully a chance to give less ice time to key players unless required. Use the depth players as the top line etc.

Stojanovič starts and Armstrong returns. Whistle, Shudra & Graham all involved.

Jonathan Phillips, Valdix, Saxrud-Danielsen, Connolly, Eberle & Warburton all not in the squad.

Fife are going 4 lines and 5 D. Kristian Blumenschein is unavailable on D, Tommi Jokinen ices in #42 tonight instead of #75 with no nameplate he had at the arena.

Their captain Matt Carter is still out long term.

Upper body injury Fox said listening to his Guildford interview. Not sure on return yet.

Roll the whole bench routinely throughout the game, even give Whistle some pp time as we should have enough in the tank and four goals up to take control of this game and see it out.
We could actually just play a complete defensive road game with no scoreboard pressure on us at all.
Unless complacency sets in and Flyers have a freak performance we should take the aggregate score and proceed to the semi final.

Steelers goal! Shudra opens the scoring sniping home unchallenged from the slot.

Small review but it’s good 0(1)-(6)1

Fife hit the crossbar with Stojanovič screened by two forwards.
