Still cant decide if this game was an all out and win game and they just had a bad night or if it was a one eye on winning the title at home performance.. Personally id expect sportsmen wanting to win any game but who knows what the club may want,,,,

They took a night off, that much is clear, but I suspect you will never actually know why that was, but has Fox has said, Cardiff wanted it more..
For me that gives them a kick in the pants for saturday night.... but perspective is needed here..
we are 10 points clear of cardiff we 7 games left to play, and one trophy already in the bag and only needing 2 wins from those last 7 games...
Which ones of you out their would not have taken that back in September 2023 if it was offered.. this team put us in this position, i have full confidence they will win the league...

Not surprised with the loss, we weren't good and Cardiff came out hard and played well.
I'm still confident we get this done, hopefully this weekend so we can get some bodies rested ready for the playoffs.

Dont get the fox comment of cardiff wanting the win more,, surely we would want it more if it was to win the league title. Never understood how another team would want to win more. Its like saying your team wasnt botheredJayboy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 3:57 pmThey took a night off, that much is clear, but I suspect you will never actually know why that was, but has Fox has said, Cardiff wanted it more..

Just got back from a week in Wales, how lucky we thought when we managed to tickets for the game?? How wrong we were to go?
We never at any point of the game got to grips with the Devils! they completely smothered us, from the puck drop to the last shift, two penalties at just the right time in the game looked to have given us a chance to put them under pressure, but no! absolutely rubbish on the PP we were! we couldn't do anything in the game without being harassed or clobbered. Not a good day at the office! You would have thought they had just won the Stanley cup the way they gloated and laughed at our game! They now know how to play us and so do the other teams, saving grace there is thou, all the other teams apart from Belfast won't be good enough to do it.
