IBN…..guess that must have been for Steeldog’s trophy win. No one deserved a mom for me.

As for this game, that was utter garbage. Even if we’ve have had the possible 4 minute PP for the high stick on Tansey, I don’t believe we would have scored.

That wasn’t anywhere near a team performance for me. Out coached and out played.

In fact during the 1st period break on the stream, they showed a 96/97 game against the Storm covered by £ky Sports and it was far more entertaining than this game. :hey:

Still, least we don’t need to stay in the last chance saloon as that is now closed for business.

No penalty for me. Had his back turned following the play when the stick hit Tanseys boat.
Bit of straw clutching going on tonight with penalty claims.

It should have been a high stick penalty, doesn't matter where he was looking, a player is responsible for their stick. Having said that, I don't think it changes the result.

for once I've decided not to pontificate in my response:

Only to say this... Simply not good enough and for me thats a fair reflection of the game.
As already said above... :zip:
Out Played and Out Coached!

I thought it was a fairly even game overall, but Belfast took advantage of the moments when they had the chances.

The problem for me is that these situations keep happening, so it comes down to more than just bad luck, it's about coaching. Keefe clearly has Fox number, so unless we can win the playoffs, I think we need to move on.

As for the high stick, it was clearly a 2 minute minimum. I'm not sure how anybody could see it any different.
