The EIHL will remain an absolute joke as long as the zebras stay. Out of all of the referees in the league there’s, maybe, three that I don’t think are horrifically bad.
It’s not even that I think they are “against the Devils”. I think they are just inadequate and unprofessional. They don’t control games which leads to potential injuries and they make terrible calls that ruin games.
Belfast fully deserved to beat us in the Playoffs last year but twice in OT the stripes missed the Giants having too many men on the ice. It was so blatant that even the commentators on Premier Sports were pointing it out. It is the EIHL playoffs, they have to do better
The Flyers have signed 28 year old import Carozza from Cortina (🇮🇹). So far this season the Centre/Winger has played 31 games with a stat line of 11 goals and 19 points.
In his stint with the Nottingham Panthers in the 2021/22 season, Carozza played 31 games with a stat line of 11 goals & 15 assists
🦓 - DEL(🇩🇪) referee Andris Ansons (🇱🇻)will be making his EIHL officiating debut tonight between the Cardiff Devils and the Guildford Flames
How does the EIHL work? Just generally, but also: When are the last games before the season ends and how far in advance can you book tickets? From what I've seen the season ends in April which coincides with my mates birthday. He's a big fan of the sport and so I thought it would be a cool idea but I can't see any information online on dates/matches in April. Any help and guidance would be appreciated
I have sponsored a few clubs over the past 5 seasons and I'm about to move offices so having a clear out of a few signed and unsigned tops.
I am not looking to make money on them so a reasonable offer csn have each.
I have
23/24 Storm home top (Morrow 70) in XS singed 23/24 Stars home top (no name or number) in S singed by Kris Inglis 22/23 Solway Sharks (Stenton 10) in s Singned by him 21/22 Clan signed and framed Stenton and Sol (separate frames) would need collected/delivered -Sol Sold- 22/23 Clan replica 2xl signed by Dyson Stevenson
For bonus i have a 21/22 Frisk Asker CHL signed top (would need to check the name on it)
If I am not allowed to post this I apologise in advance and happy for it to be removed
Does anybody else think the officiating standard has dropped dramatically the last few years?
Now I know this is a EHIL forum but I live near enough in middle from Sheffield steelers and Leeds knights, is there a massive diffeence in the standards bewteen the two leagues?
Any experienced both sides?
So far this season the 24 year old has played 5 games in the Slovak league with a stat line of 3 assists 18 PIMs and a +/- of -3. He also carries 177 games of ECHL experience with a 0.41 PPG and 176 PIMs
We are just over 2 months into the season and I feel we have played the same teams 100 times already.
Clubs are now promoting Christmas and New Year games against teams we have played so many times.
How can the format change?
Add in SNL & Nihl teams but have rules that eihl teams must have 3 brits on the ice at all times ?
For me I've recently got in to collecting player photos and getting them signed at events and also new to collecting game worn jerseys. Looking at getting game pucks but can never seem to find any. Who or what do you collect?
I know the talks of new teams or teams joining back in to the EIHL are always happening. But what if a brand new team joined the EIHL/NHL, where would they be from and what would they be called? For example Leicester are a pretty sporty city yet I don't believe they have ever had a hockey team? Surely that would be a good location despite the threat of the other sports? Or Liverpool/Bournemouth/York/London area based/Return to Newcastle? Anywhere else?
Hi all, I've been scouring online trying to find a certain Belfast Giants Varsity Jacket (pictured) for a Christmas Present. Nowhere seems to have it so I figured I'd ask here, if anyone has one from back in the day would you be willing to sell it?
Thank you for all the ideas! I spoke to the mil who said that port rush is a beautiful place and that my Mrs loves it there so I went and booked the flights, the double header for Belfast/Cardiff for all 4 of us as well as the Airbnb. Gutted I couldn't get into the actual away section as it looks like it's all sold out but I'm pretty sure I'm next to them (I really hope anyway)
Thank you all again for the ideas!
She's going to go nuts 😆
It was good to see the league doing remembrance at the weekend, but I’m feeling a bit off today after seeing all the posts across social media
Big hugs to everyone
