The first of those weird Thursday night games that only cost £8 an elite league game as well, so very important we get a good win in this one to set us up nicely for Saturday's cup game against the Storm. :Puzzle:

A chance to go top for a day if we can win this one, Guildford seem to have started pretty well and I'd imagine have a similar speedy transition team as they always seem to bring - hopefully we continue our good defensive play and can nullify their transition game by being responsible and giving them no rush chances with 2 on 1's etc.

I would imagine very few changes to the lineup from Sunday's win against the Blaze:

Ciampini-Allen-Neumann
Latal-Whistle-Dowd
Connolly-Raska-McNally
Jono-Pitule-Graham

Nevalainen-Petgrave
Piche-Jones
Schulze-Davey

Greenfield
McLaughlin

However, it sounds as though McNally-Pitule-Jono worked well so I wouldn't mind seeing the top 2 lines as above but bottom 6 of:

Graham-Connolly-Raska - give Graham a chance up the lineup - I'd be tempted to move Connolly to center to try and spark his game and Raska to wing for his speed and lack of faceoff wins so far, unless you just let Connolly take the draws and leave both in their current positions.
McNally-Pitule-Jono - sounded like this line had an identity and suited all 3 players, McNally was struggling with the Czech pace so a good move to get him where he thrives and saw the best from him straight away.

The game tonight is on Premier Sports, so I would imagine they're not doing a stream.

4-2 Steelers. No expecting Guildford to cause us too many issues at home despite their good start.

We go top of the League if we win.

I won't be able to get there tonight, but will watch recorded off FreeSports at a later date. I'll probably already know the score, but I like to see how everything actually went for myself.

Might not be relevant but the M1 is/was closed between junctions 36 & 37 both directions.

Disappointing crowd even for a midweek game must must be the Premier Sports effect.

Looking forward to seeing Kristo, should be a decent competitive game.
