Two regulation time wins for Coventry Blaze
Plus
Two overtime defeats for Sheffield Steelers
Equals
Steelers ten point advantage being cut to eight points with Blaze still having two games in hand and three games left to play against Steelers.
Who said this title race was over?

I did - but i'll be gladly proved wrong if we can overturn the Steelers advantage.

I can't see Steelers losing 5 more games than Blaze between now and the end of the season. Expecially when you look at our abysmal record against the other top 3 teams. Only a Steeler injuries crisis or self destruction can stop them |

They don't need to lose 5 more times....as long as we win our games in hand we will only be 4 points behind them. And we play Steelers another 3 times....if Blaze play like they can, they can beat them all 3 times.

Agreed. The midweek double header against Belfact will be crucial this week, if we win them both we're back to 2nd position

AFAIK these 2 games are cup games and do not go towards the league standings..........i think!

They are just KO Cup games, no league points up for grabs.
