GAME THREAD: Steelers v. Clan.. Wed, 22nd December.

[Nathan]

Well we've decided to attend, either this or Emmerdale, so hopefully we'll be treated to a dominant display.

Might be close but if we find our legs early I reckon we should have enough in the tank and some left over.

Brust to start?

[SteelerBlade]

Not sure it will be a blowout, Glasgow have experienced players, plenty of leadership and a lot of grit. We’ll need to be at our best to get a result tonight.

Anyone know what the ticket sales are like?

From what I can make out, the middle blocks look pretty much sold out, in front of the white house looks well sold, but the corners are very spacious.

We have tickets for the game but will not be attending. I’m still getting over a bout of COVID and it’s still a step too far for me. Plus the others in the household have avoided it so don’t want to risk Christmas now. As my son said ‘if I’m going to catch it I would rather it be Boxing Day than now and ruin Christmas ‘.

Looks like Vojtěch Polák has not been named in the lineup.

For Glasgow, Matthew Haywood has been dropped for breaching club Covid protocol.

No Polak on the ice in this 1st period.

1-0 fairly comfortable start. We had them hemmed on the o zone for several mins. Hit the post once.

Glasgow seem to have one strong (checking) offensive line but not a lot else.

[SteelerBlade]

Dominated possession but didn’t create a whole lot in terms of good chances, lots of shots but mostly an easy night for Shane Starrett so far.

1-0 after 1, Martin Látal on a 5-on-3.

[steeler pete]

1-1 bit of a flat boring 2nd. Need to pick it up in the 3rd.

[SteelerBlade]

Flat second period by both sides, Glasgow equalised off a rebound.

Poor standard of hockey.

1-1.

[raetiamann]

1-2

This is an exhibition game isn't it?
