GAME THREAD: Giants v Steelers. SAT 18th Jan

A classic 4 pointer

Huge game.

We really have to win this one if we want to start to become title contenders.

4-3 Steelers.

Always a very tough place to come, made even tougher due to Belfast being rested and more or less fully fit.

I think faceoffs could be key in this. Last week against the Panthers Belfast were over 70%, which gave them a huge advantage in controlling the game. I expect us to be less than 50%, but we really can't afford to slip below 40%.

I wonder if we'll see either of Vainio or Leavens in this one.

1-1 PP Goal

Certainly not caused by Conway intentionally skating across and behind a Steelers player and then throwing a Tom Daley with added exaggeration.

End P1

[Bryan]

Looked a poor call for the second pen but there you go.

[Rendo]

100% a poor call that one, but not a bad first period to watch.
