Yes the league looks like its going to be interesting this season. The Storm victory over Belfast may not be such a shock though if you look at the stats. Yes Belfast have done well in the CC but they have only Dundee and Fife in their group. In the league they are 1 win 2 losses while Storm are 3 wins 2 losses.
Should be a good match tomorrow. I think we can compete with any team in this league but its not going to be an easy ride that for sure.

Great result for Storm and another win for Fife too. Who cares whether it's a league or Cup game? It just demonstrates that anything can happen and nothing is guaranteed.
I don't know about the Storm players being exhausted after last night.... not playing any hockey last night ( no game for Devils) doesn't always work out either.

I think ASHIPP's point may have been not too take anything away from Fife's win just because it was in the Cup. We need Fife to be winning games, we need all the struggling teams to be doing well (just not at our expense!) so that their fans return and keep coming.
And whether it's CC or League it does go to show that anything can happen. Who would have thought that Storm would have turned over the Giants when only last weekend they were getting done 8-0 by Fife (who looked awful when they were down here).
Anybody being able to beat anybody makes games more unpredictable and that's great for our sport generally. You don't want to go to the game knowing the result beforehand - that's not sport, that's a play.

Not really a surprising win, it’s still early days, teams are still settling in, feeling each other out and with 18 months without competition it’s going to take a while for game fitness, muscle memory and plays to come sharp again. Which will make for a rollercoaster season, so buckle up folks, it’s gonna be a ride.........
