Beat by a better team tonight. Easy to see why they won the league. Flyers, despite their efforts didn’t have enough to turn the game around once behind.
Not all negative though. Struck the pipe twice or three times, but our goal had a charmed life at times. The late goal in the first period was disappointing, but Flyers made a decent start to the second until Wehrs got outmuscled behind the goal line about three minutes in to the period and Steelers never looked like losing from then on. Pilon pulled one back on a rebound but a late goal in the third for Sheffield settled it.
Need to be at our best in both weekend games.

Emmerdahl's hit happened right in front of us - the Steelers boy lost an edge as Emmerdahl started the hit, nothing he could have done to avoid it. If he put the brakes on to pull out of the hit, he'd have stuck the Sheffield players head through the boards with his knee.
I think the speed of this team hasn't 'helped' Emmerdahl. It's a much, much faster team - look at Makela and Giles when they're carrying the puck out the zone, they're rapid. We're breaking a lot quicker and I feel like he struggles to keep up with this pace.

What a a player Makela is, does very little wrong but many things right. He’s had a cracking season in my opinion. He’s very quick for a D man, reads the game very well and without a doubt I’d have him back next season.

Got the forum to myself tonight then! OK lets be having it, burning question of the week is Emmerdahl good bad or indifferent, no need to chip in here ---G--- we know your position on this one!, for me indifferent he's not one I'd have kept. Bean and Laura our colourful commentators. From being an absolutely gash webcast I think it's now up to pretty much OK levels, Bean and Laura ain't the best commentators in the league but I kinda like them, they're totally different from the rest which is fine by me. Credit to them. Tom Coolen, breath of fresh air after seasons suffering TD and JH hockey, lord even stirlingflyer the greatest ever match night poster couldn't stomach them. Tom I hope you stay with us. Back to the hockey. If your in the know, TD has more say than you think
