Right then. I've been away in Nottingham for the weekend. I headed back to Wales this afternoon and saw the Devils team bus going to the other way on the M42 at 13:45. As my misses was asleep and the kids watching dvds I had little else to think about (apart from driving safely of course) I started doing some rough workings out.
The team would have left Cardiff at approximately 11:45 am to be where they were. This allows the players time to get up, dressed breakfast etc.
On a coach doing let's say 60mph it would have taken about another 2 hours to get to the rink in Sheffield at 15:45. An hour and 15 minutes before face off.
I'm assuming the players must eat between breakfast and face off. I'm also assuming a Big Mac at the services isn't an option.
With this in mind I got to thinking that we played at home last night.
After the game the players would have chilled and met fans in the bar. Hence maybe not being home till around 10-11pm.
After a tough game and late night considering work the next day I don't imagine they all got in and prepared a lunchbox for the travels ahead?
Just wondering if anyone actually knows how this works? The players must need an energy boost (food) and I don't accept that a couple of bananas cuts it at this level.
Any thoughts or answers please?
