GAME THREAD: Panthers v. Steelers. Fri, 16th April.

Panthers take it 4-3, and deservedly so.

Warburton clear MOTM, kept us in it when we left him totally unprotected. Everyone else fell well below the levels they’ve shown they can perform at in this tournament.

Played pretty well in the 3rd & won the last two periods but you don’t get anything for only turning up for 40 minutes.

We failed to get pucks & people to the net so Bowns had a pretty easy night, unlike Owen who we made life hard for. Also very little in the way of finishing checks and an overall lethargy and lack of energy.

Hopefully they break down the video & move on to the next one, as Jay said we’re in the semi-finals, but need to sort our first periods, been done 6-0 over the last two.

Well we were always going to have a bad night at the office and we didn't play well but we at least never gave the game up.

After seven games, using our two back ups, to be 5-2 is quite remarkable I'd say. Be interesting to see who gets the start in goal next time out.

Great game for finding out a few facts and confirming some others, we proberly learnt more from that game than the previous 6 games together..
I have no issues at all, its clear Ben is not a starter, a great backup keeper though.. Aaron will not find it difficult analyse that performance and move onward...

Curtis Warburton registered at 94.12 SV% in his just under 50 minutes.

As Jay says, the whole team will learn a lot more from that than from another win. Certainly puts a stop to any compacency.

I see the link to the Highlights on the Elite site doesn't work.
