Plenty of positives tonight!

Good points tonight:

1) Good all round performance after giving the Vipers a two goal head start
2) Only incurred one minor penalty all night - i think we really benefitted from spending such a large part of the match at full strength (this has been a weakness in recent weeks)
3) One or two Vipers wanted to fight Lewis but he didn't bite and stayed on the ice
4) Johnathan Weaver and Adam Calder in particular were a class act but everyone played their part

Not so good tonight I thought were:

1) Two poor poor goals given away - Panthers or Squealers would have buried us from there
2) Lewis seemed a bit distant, very unlike him not to be up for a scrap at some point although to be fair his Hockey was alright
3) Deschatalets was quiet again

Finally for the record a couple of weeks ago I started a thread about a few issues off the ice which I thought needed attention. To be brief the things I had a whinge about were the Hot Dog setup, the stewarding around the dressing rooms and the condition of the boards which resulted in stops in play.

These issues appear to have been addressed and I wanted to say WELL DONE BLAZE MANAGEMENT!

Anyone got anything to add to the lists or thinks I'm talking out of my *&£^?

Hey your entitled to your opinion but mine is simple.
Lines looked more balance and for the first time in weeks it wasn't all down to the third to do the grinding work, I enjoyed the flowing hockey in the second the third we were a little slower but the game was done. Erik and Forsyth having just come into the team looked good and given more time to 'blend' will be real assets.
The early goals are a worry as its hard enough to win any game but starting that far behind so early is downright dangerous. Campbell's goals were good and love him or hate him he is real good at finding space, we mustn't allow the space!
A good win but lets face it Newcastle are not the same as Belfast, Sheffield or Nottingham, great start lets hope and pray it continues.
Oh yeah and you should try the dog with chilli and peppers............you will definitely not worry about the boards anymore........................lol

Consistency is the key. Blaze are always likely to beat anyone from 6th down by this sort f score. However the gripes are coming because it's not being replicated against the Big 3.
