We couldn’t have asked for a better first game back after the holidays, we had a decent crowd and got the two points we wanted. Invicta are a very skilled team but it looks to me that they just haven’t found their way this year for some reason.
We came out hard just like we had planned and the guys didn’t stop until the final buzzer. We played physical and out shot Invicta and those were the two main points that we wanted to focus on heading into that game.
We have two games this weekend and we will be welcoming back Stuart Tait to the Arena. It looks like Streatham has improved significantly since the last time we played them, so we are going to make sure we prepare ourselves like we did last week.
The last few results have been good at home, but I think our team will be at full strength when we start putting stronger results away from home. I think it’s fair to say that not many teams like coming to the island on a Saturday night, so if we can start dominating away from home we will put ourselves in a good position come playoff time.
We will be continuing our training this week and adding in two more off-ice work outs, we want to make sure we are not giving ourselves any excuses down the stretch to the playoffs. We want to be at full strength every weekend from here on out.
See you Saturday,
JC
