So, Dundee seriously didn’t think they’d get through the knockout stage – never mind ending first seeds and had to circumvent the live selection on Freesports in a couple weeks to secure ice time…yup – #village
The Belfast Giants this week moved to sign defenceman Ryan Lowney to strengthen the corps at the back. With this though, which two imports now miss out on game nights?
Harrison Walker, U18s netminder for the Bradford Bulldogs stepped up over the last couple weeks, but as an outskater, and netted himself 12 (TWELVE) goals in two games against the same opposition!
Not to jump on the bandwagon – but we discuss the issue of goal pegs…
Last week, Steelers player Michael Davies and Storm player Mathieu Gagnon both fell foul of EIHL’s Department of Player Safety after a multifaceted incident!
Meanwhile, Flyers assistant coach Jeff Hutchins was handed a 7 game ban for an incident in Nottingham both after the game and off the ice that involved a water bottle and a swift boot….
Finally, Sheffield saw themselves go another import down for a game this weekend – as Marc-Olliver Vallerand will sit out one game for a questionable hit to the back of the head…but he wasn’t content not to have his say on the matter…
Retaliation for a body check… We get checked… we’re hockey players… its our job.

Finally – the NHL 2019 Winter Classic jersey reveals have hit for both Nashville and Dallas– let alone that young Ethan McClean was in Nashville for that reveal!). We have our say on them.
NHL players we’re asked (confidentially of course) a series of hard-hitting questions about whether the league has a ‘charlie’ problem, and if they, like John, are finally over this Gritty thing. Check out their answers!
Yeah – this one went viral for all the wrong reasons. Never nice to see a guy go down like this, go good to see him leave with the thumbs up.
Yup, it’s THAT annual rumour doing the rounds again – but considering the source is from the KHL this time, does it add any real weight to it?
The San Antonio Rampage will wear three completely different throwback jerseys over three periods in one game to celebrate their anniversary!
The Washington Nationals won the World Series of hitting a ball with a stick last week and they decided to go to the best place in DC to party – wherever Ovi is!
That’s right, the beloved Mighty Ducks are getting rebooted into a TV series. Do we need or want it?
Its that time in the show where we want to share a player, a goal or a game that we thought was outstanding this week and you get to vote!
It was close last time around – with only 4% between first and first loser….but the fans have tied things at the top and took the point!
Check out this week’s nominations and remember to vote via Twitter!
