Hard game, they've pushed us twice very hard this season, this won't be an easy game in their barn, a huge night for whoever our goaltender will be.

I'll go with a 2-3 win with the game going to a penalty shootout.

This will definitely be a tough one for us, Clan have pushed us each game we've faced them and they've had some big results at home.

I still think we'll have enough in the tank despite a tough game Saturday and a long trip up to Scotland. I'll go for a 4-2 win for the Rok.

Now they have a good sized barn sorted out wouldn’t it be good to see Glasgow become another big city arena team. But not tonight.

We have another of those goalies who like to kick the net off it’s moorings just before the puck goes in. For some reason they seem to breed them in Scotland

A great weekend picking up maximum points.

We've put ourselves in a good place, but we'll need the points advantage we currently have because our run in is comfortably the most difficult of the three contenders.

That series against Belfast is going to be huge.

Regards

Not in this case. Our nets in Braehead have been hopeless for the past few years, and have been gradually getting worse. Toby Craig has already said on the record he'll never call a goalie for delay of game with the nets at Braehead, until he's been told the arena has replaced them.

Now that the Clan are "the arena" I'm hopeful they'll finally get the replacement they need for next season, and only the circumstances around getting started this season were the only reason the work couldn't be done this season.

Was a cracking game until the 3rd period, when the refs started calling stuff they happily let go in the previous 2 periods. Fought on until we couldn't any more, to be within arms reach of 4th at this stage is definitely well above most of our pre-season expectations.
