Not really much to add on this one, apart from game on.....

It makes the Panthers clash on Saturday one of the biggest for a long time. In recent years we've been the team in with a shout of the title, but this year Panthers have to come into that conversation.

Agree with Ginger, had we not lost both our netminders at the same time, we'd probably be at least 4 points better off......fine margins.

Regards

It's crazy close in reality. Cardiff's injury list is pretty crazy, us losing both goalies essentially in one game. Honestly would love to see a full season from the top 4 teams currently with being healthy all year. Would be really close.

Tremendous 3rd period but there’s a boarding penalty all day long from Huttula on our first empty net goal. We’d be fuming if that was on one of our players.

Still, always pleased to see Keefe’s team lose :D

They'd let a lot of big and borderline hits go all game, so I think it was actually a decent bit of consistency in reffing for once, but it's definitely borderline. If the refs had called a couple of earlier ones I think it would have been called.

If you watch the hit by Huttula, he does go in hard but the player has already dropped towards the ice!!! his contact is then minimal, but I agree on first look its seems like a penalty!! The refs in this case I think got it right!
