MK were given three 5 on 3s in tonights game. Not sure if it was bad refereeing or Devils being guilt of taking stupid penalties which allowed MK back into the game. The MK camera man has not worked out how to use the zoom feature so it was hard to see. He has enough problems trying to find the puck.
It was a much better performance by the Devils though. MK still looked good and Galakos is an incredible player but our depth and quality sealed it despite the penalties.
Lots of problem with the webcast though. When I reloaded after it hung, up, it went back to the beginning again which is an interesting feature. It crashed again with 30 seconds to go and restarted with 1 min 30 to go which was bizarre.

MK have some real potential in their team. I hope they get the chance next season to build on that base. I have to say where as last nights refs were good, tonight they were awful. They were missing basic stuff from both sides.
It was great to get back and find out Glasgow had won 5-0. So for all those worried by Belfast winning both games this weekend, we would still be a point clear if we win our game in hand.

Which two in particular?
From memory:
1st MK goal - Lovely pass from behind the net which fooled everyone on the ice.
2nd MK goal - 2 on 1 pass accross crease for a tap in.
3rd MK goal - Wallace breakaway with a lovely deak.
4th MK goal, another odd man rush with Norris all alone under no pressure to go bar down
5th goal - Valdix with an accurate top shelf through traffic on the powerplay.
I'm struggling to see what Bowns did wrong?

i thought he was at fault for the 1st and should do better with 5th. i just watched it back. 1st i still think he was at fault for the 1st. the 5th he doesn't get his glove up but there was a partial screen. the norris goal, again glove side it doesn't get up. There are numerous fans around me who discuss this glove side issue for Ben so its not me picking him apart, just thought he could have done better.
Equally the D were really slack mind, some of it was hideous. but we still won!!! all you can ask for i guess
