I'm sure there was a thread I added photos to. Can't find it so...
Went to Steelers v Coventry Blaze on Saturday. Steelers won 2-0. Someone at work went to Hull v Steelers last night where Hull won 4-2.

Fights were pretty lame and the officials stepped in straight away. Someone got elbowed in the face and someone managed to be flipped over. Decent scrap towards the end.

They don't fight here as much as they should due to the bans etc

I've been going to hull games for a while.Sundays game was immense. Some cracking fights, and the players are fearless.

I'm a season ticket holder at coventry blaze. Fights have been going down year on year although this year it has been one of the closest finishes to the league for play offs spots. My season ticket works out about £12 a game for 3hours entertainment which is brilliant value

Given we won the treble last year, panthers have had a terrible season - too much focus on the continental cup this year. Can't believe the margin by which Giants won the league this year. We've had so many injuries and suspensions and even new players coming in who have upset the balance though, hopefully next year will sort itself out!!
Also managed to make NJ Devils opening home game against NY islanders in October which was a hell of an experience compared to the UK, even the Rock (Capital FM arena) is tiny in compared to the likes of MSG and the Prudential Centre!!!

I can't actually believe we managed to come back against Giants especially given their form this year - 5th year in a row. Shame it's all we'll get this year.

Can't believe no one has questioned why there is about 1000 teddy bears on the ice in the fourth pic

i was down at the Hull Arena to watch The Stingrays get defeated by top of the table Belfast. Not the best of games to be honest, and not much in the way of fighting.
That's the last game of the season for me, and i fear that the bigger names in our team will be leaving.

Best fight of the season, (almost) a bench clearance, Panthers vs Steelers, Capital FM Arena Nov '13.
Never been quite as proud in my life as when my normally mild-mannered missus started yelling 'rip his fucking head off'

Even puts the Capital FM Arena to shame - it was full as well, first photo is the kids' second period game, felt sorry for the kids as almost everyone went to the bars/food outlets/ toilets whilst they were on the ice.

We've fucked it up this season; looks like we are in the Continental cup again next year which means we'll fuck things up again!
Robbo, I'd left too, the missus stayed in her seat whilst I went to get food and beer.
