Clan vs Devils - League - 12th Dec 25 - FO 19:30

[James]

After a weekend of homegames we have another Scottish away weekend. First up is the Clan as the Devils follow them up country to to the shopping center to play the return fixture after the thumping the Clan took in the Bay. Clan will be looking for a bounceback win in front of their own fans but hopefully Devils will take the confidence of their home performance with them.

I will be happy with a 3 pt weekend considering our abysmal record in Scotland, anything more will be a bonus .

 

[Wannabe2]

Think it going to kick off tomorrow.

 

[BostonBart22]

I dont think so as clan can't afford to drop points in their position, if it does we can look after ourselves, just stay clear of injuries .

 

[Johnburns]

I do hope someone goes after that player(can't remember his name) who did that dirty cheap shot on Barrow

 

[Wannabe2]

For some reason I still think it might kick off, I think there’s still a sour taste by Oligny, Brandt, Pare,Jarusec which just may boil over again.

Think that was Pare who Oligny then fought.

Hope Helgesen gives Pare a seeing to

 

[BostonBart22]

Corey neilson is no angel either sending on pare to sort barrow out after he levelled his son, thought clans medic may have had a fine or warning over his future conduct after he had a tantrum on the bench last minute.

Cory Neilson v Thommo at centre ice during the first interval would be much better entertainment than chuck a puck

 

[Farside]

The (completely wrong) perception amongst some Clan fans is that Barrow's hit on Neilson was dirty, so Pare & Co could well go after Barrow again in their rink - it's shame Yaremko won't be there to shotgun Barrow.
If it goes the other way and the Devil's call out Pare first, it would be great to see Helgesen give him a pasting, though we need Helgesen to be in the game more than they need Pare.
Regardless, Lacroix, Ferguson and Brandt will be doing their best to disrupt and irritate, I'm sure.
Really hoping the Devil's have learnt from previous trips to Scotland and looking forward it.

'Coach's Challenge' - could be a regular feature.

No oligny in the line up tonight

According to this he is

 

[kristian]

Guessing Stoever is injured

 

[BostonBart22]

Which 2 sit ? No harewood again .?

 

[BostonBart22]

Clan full squad

Looks like Devils are choosing Harry Thomas tactically to have an extra import skater rather than an import door opener. Imagine Stoever has travelled and no indication he’s injured but if Thommo isn't starting him and we have to scratch two imports anyway, makes sense to scratch Stoever over a fit skater.

On another note, tonight Belfast start their 3-in-3 weekend so we’ll see how they do over the next three nights. Guildford at home then Guildford at home, then Dundee away.

Should imagine 6 pts especially 2 at home, panthers had their 3 in 3 in Scotland last weekend and got 5 points

And they’re going with two Brit netminders like us too.
