Is 5-1 a big enough lead to hold on? Fully expecting a bit of backlash from them.

In an ideal world we would have rested Greenfield this weekend and keep him fresh for this one.

I'm going for a Sreelers O/T win.

I hope it doesn’t go to o/t.
That would mean Cardiff have beaten us by 4 in regular time!

I will be happy if we go through without need for o/t.

A tight close game will do for me.

Shame we don't have Östlund available. Be nice for Greenfield to have a night off. I'm concerned that we could burn him out, when we are going to need him at his best down the stretch.

Does the penalty carry over to this game, like it would to Overtime?

Think Cardiff will edge the game but Steelers will make it through to the Semi-Final.

Interested to see if we keep the same lineup or change a couple around, we do have Raska and Connolly waiting for their chance to get back in...would it be too much of a risk to change it up even with a 4 goal lead? I'm sure there's a couple at least that could use the break.

If we play with the same intensity and defend how we have been pretty much all season then I can't see us not going through to be honest, I'm hoping we keep this recent good form going and get another comprehensive win, but we all know the Devils are gonna come out firing early on and we may have to weather a storm.

I'd take going through in pretty much any fashion but I hope we get another regulation win to keep building the conidence.

Very difficult fixture. We’ve put ourselves in a great position but they’re very capable of turning this round, need to be at our very best.
