Cowan is so slow and incompetent at this level that he can't keep up with play and even when he is paying attention he is watching the puck rather that the stuff that is happening off it and as a result Giants got away with so much garbage tonight. If this is what import laden hockey is going to bring over the next couple of season with an increase of imports it's going to be even worse to watch. Thought we ground that out tonight and the equalising goal, which certainly went in, turned the game in our favour. We were put under pressure so much time tonight and so many player went missing because of the style of hockey Giants play and we got such a huge game out of Brown and I would have given him MoM even though Sacchetti got 2+2 Am I the only one who did not think the giants were not that dirty, I think just because we play a fairly non contact soft game we should not expect other teams to as well, there was very little "garbage out there" when I read reports of all other teams games being hard and physical with fights and incidents, I get a bit jelouse having to watch this watered down brand of hockey we are being fed.

No idea how we got the win but pleased we did. After the second period I thought that Belfast would go on and win easily, but Flyers grafted for the win and after the third goal, Flyers seemed to get some belief that the game could be won and Sacchetti's second was a cracker. Thought Sacchetti had his best game for us and thought Brown, Haines, Delahey and Horne had excellent games. Once again the refereeing was poor overall. Cowan had a few baffling decisions, but surprisingly was in good position to give Flyers' third goal . No idea if it went in from where I sit. Halas showed a bit more bottle than usual to identify the clown who slashed the plexi at the goal judge and to bring it to Cowan's attention. A pleasing win against a team who played some really nice hockey on the night. More of the same on Sunday please.

I found the video. It was fast and would need to be slowed down. It does though look in. From where I was standing it looked like the post and straight out at an angle. no ring so no post, unless we have the only silent iron in the world of ice hockey

Good win tonight hopefully more of the same tomorrow Wilson tomorrow night so anything is possible. The League needs to look at the standard were getting in the Gardiner and do something about it There was a clear check to Kyle Haines Head by Peacock Cowan just let it go then Haines gets 2+2 How can you give Gunn 2 for tripping and Giants player 2 for diving at same time it was i think Caig for hooking-his stick hit Peacock hands more than once which i think is slashing, and Radja dived, so for once he got the calls right, can't believe i wrote that

I wasn't at this game but I have noticed an increase in folk calling for penalties in recent weeks when any flyers player get even the most basic check from any opposing player. If it knocks the flyers player over some are up screaming for major penalties. It's pretty embarrassing TBH.

Wasn't at the game either. Happy for 2 points against an erhardt team. The fact it was a controversial goal makes it all the sweeter! How many times have we been the ones punked up and down by these arena teams in the past? playoff against nottingham cpl of years ago with the lost 2 mins at the end of the home leg springs to mind. Get it up them i say
