GAME THREAD: Devils v Steelers: Wed 27th.

[mark]

Everybody is injured, it will be 2/3rds of the Steeldogs team, we are just going to get battered, might as well not travel. #reverse psychology

I have to say I am worried that the team will be even more battered and bruised after this game. We all know how the Devils ‘like to play the body’.
I just hope they can ride it out.

Last season this is the type of game we would of won { up against it, backs to the wall scenario ] interesting to see how this pans out. cardiff dropped on a good time to play us

If we don't bring in a good quality netminder I don't think we'll have much chance.

Even with a good netminder it's going to be very difficult, especially if we've still got a few missing and others playing when they shouldn't be.

Hopefully we won't pick up any more injuries. That's always the danger when you're short benched and players are less than 100%

Well the bookies have faith ! They have us as favourites !
It's usually tough at Cardiff but we still have a lot of good players and they aren't exactly at the top of their game at the moment.
I think it will be close and it may be about how the puck bounces .
Lets hope Aaron has a plan and the old Steeler spirit is still there.

Troops are on their way.

Haven't Cardiff just come off their Continental Cup semi final games?

Perhaps they might be feeling the 3 games in 3 days schedule so it might balance out who is the most knackered lol.

Tight game I think.

3-2 Cardiff OT.

When desperate fetch a Finn.

We've signed Jere Huhtamaa. His numbers don't look great, but he may have been on poor teams.

He's quite young and I would guess eager to impress. If we could get 91% out of him that would be good enough for me right now.

And the last Finnish replacement nettie we signed that became an instant hero: - Pasi Raitanen

I don't suppose anyone has tickets for sale for this game, do they?
