Fife v Clan

[ted]

Can we do it again?

[ferryflyer]

You bet

[stirlingflyer]

I fancy our chances tomorrow night. 4-1 for Flyers!

[falkirkflyer]

I'm going to put my neck out and say 5-0 to Flyers

[falkirkflyer]

When is it Miller is meant to be off back to America? I was under the impression he was going to be away by tomorrow or am i just dreaming?

[ronniemac]

He was playing tonight against the Caps.
No Galbraith due to injury.
Clan were the best side in Saturdays game BUT the Caps ground out the win, they have picked up a wee gem in Lienweber who is best described as a 80% Casey Haines and a similar size who is also quite a speedy little guy mostly looks like a player who will get more assists than goals given his play in that game.
Caps weakness is the defence, the main guy is Dobron and the rest look mediocre, we all know about the goalie,he was the reason the Caps won at Braehead.

If the guys come out and hit them really hard from the off I think we will annihilate them. Short benched, they won't fancy getting smashed against our boards and plexi for a long shift. Big physical game required!

[coloradoflyer]

if we tire them quickly this could be a mauling we must out and play our game and i think we will win , i'll say 5-2 fife

[regdunlop]

i think a narrow win for flyers tonight. it all looks doom and gloom for clan at the moment, shortbenched, galbraith injured, fans not happy with zemmer and zemmer doesn't seem happy either. writing on the wall seems to point to a big win for flyers. i'm always wrong with these things and so that's why i went for a narrow flyers win. Any kind of win would be great put us level on points with the clan and give us a 3 point cushion over the caps for tommorow night.

Clan being so short benched will have one good period of energy in them and if we make the Miller line work more in their end than ours then we will wear them down with our high tempo game.

Stick to the game plan, don't go run and gun with them and stay out the penalty box and we take this game comfortably.

Undoubtedly they will look to get Millers line out against our Brits as much as possible. That will likely happen at times as they have no other option but to do that when we run three lines

[sparkymark75]

We'll have the advantage of last line change so that should happen less than it did at Braehead hopefully. Beware the wounded Lion.

[harlan]

See Sparky that may be where our problem lies tonight.

With Clan having so few bodies they will effectively just ice two lines.
So what do we do with our third line and who do we match it up against as I think Dutes will want his line with Caister and Keller against the Miller line and Haines line against McPhersons line.

Do we do the full line match ups or do we just keep rolling three forward lines irrespective of who Clan put on the ice and just match up our D with the forward lines that we want

[sparkymark75]

Good point. I know our 3rd line's been ok lately but I still cringe when they get put out for face-off's in our zone.

[mosh86]

i'm voted for a narrow win. i think it will be on of thoise games we just grind out.

[neebur]

Clan struggling badly & on worrying losing streak - unless they come with their 'A' game then they will not win.

We shouldn't be botgered however with whatever is going on in the west. Focus is on a good win tonight to wrap up a pretty good festive campaign for Flyers.

Fife to win circa 6-3.
