Jesenice Vs Devils - Conti Cup - 19th Nov 22 - 19:00 FO
- Thread starter James
- Start date
3-0 win for the Devils. Sandford with another good finish for the 3rd.
Security:
Couple weeks back - the Friday game against Panthers - I brought a couple friends who usually come to CHL games. As we might have gone out after, I decided against wearing a jersey. 3 of us, no jerseys, drinks in hand - we were hounded whenever we got up (seats at the back of the block) to go to the bar, or the toilets etc (always at breaks in play). Never had anything like it.
But tonight a group of 10 or so, most completely out of it, feet up on the seats, heckling the Zamboni driver, high pitch whistles throughout game when puck in play. One bloke whilst puck in play vaulted 3 rows and the bar at the front, walked over to the Devils bench and tried the door to get in! He even asked Kozun to let him in! Same fella in the break went and got another drink and then did a drum solo at the top of Block 4.
Nothing done.
Security like the Stripes this season.

That guy had been abusing someone on the Devils bench throughout the game, giving him the finger, telling him to F off, then at one point he got up and started banging on the plexi next to the players bench! This gang of drunken yobs (and there were more than 10 of team) were spoken to 3 or 4 times by security and were allowed to stay in their seats, continuing to act like idiots and dishing out abuse. It’s totally unacceptable. Tonight, IAW security let down the fans, by allowing these idiots to ruin the game for those sat in the vicinity. There really has to be a zero tolerance policy with incidents like this. Step over the line and you’re ejected from the arena, simple as that. Absolute pathetic security tonight.

Tremendous game of hockey and a superb atmosphere (security issue aside). Have to agree with the praise for Brittain, he was my MOM tonight and it’s good to see Jardine beginning to get back to where we know he can be at. The Ducs supporters were a very welcome addition to the rink and like a few people, I am mystified as to why the rink was so empty tonight, it’s so good to see such slick hockey and even better seeing the Devils deservedly win
Be careful what you say, you'll upset the resident arse lickers who post here day in day out.
As August says, zero tolerance needs to be enforced. I suspect security are not trained to handle such situations though or simply not paid enough to be bothered.
Glad to read we got another convincing win though and some people enjoyed it.

I believe we have already qualified! A win for Angers tomorrow puts them on 6 points, level with us. We would need to get at least a point from the Zemgale game to guarantee Top Spot. I’m not sure what the tiebreak criteria would be, but if it is head to head then we will top the group regardless of tomorrows results!
Maybe this new coach has put some good in training, bowns and kozun looked comfortable this weekend and that worldy save from bowns was something special, please put it on the highlights, good to see 60 min. Hockey by the devils 2 nights running, our defence has improved as well conceded 1 in 2 games, few players improving as well at the right time, and all this with 2 imports down, can't fault the efforts.. didn't see the idiots spoiling the game for the fans and if it were the cardiff fire boys surely that will be dealt with, these incidents may jepodise the final at the IAW unfortunately ..
I sit in Block 19 and had no problems so far this weekend.There were quite a few assorted european fans and they were great.I didnt see any problems from my Block.The fans opposite seemed to be Angers fans who looked like they were having fun but no bother.
Does anyone know who this group is the club must know from the ticket sales.Sorry to say they could be angry welsh fans after the defeat
to Georgia.
The problem with Cardiff Fire can surely be sorted by TK and Devils management.
