EIHL Play Off weekend - Sunday

Skipped breakfast this morning (what with still being stuffed from last nights JD ribs) and had some nice coffee to wake us up. It was snowing in the night and there were a few flakes falling as we headed off for the tram.

You can't see my hands...

...but you can see mine!

Shaggy doesn't want his picture taken!

Hope you like tramming too!

Got to the NIC and went and settled into our seats with coffee, popcorn and Minstrels.

Under 19s England v Scotland
This was a pretty entertaining game although we did miss part of it as we went off to talk to Edinburgh Capitals general manager Scott Neil. England beat Scotland 4 - 0.

Don't lean back!

After the Under 19s game Toni and I left the confines of the NIC once again and went to Pizza Hut to chill out and have a spot of lunch before walking back in another light snow shower.

PLAY OFF FINAL: COVENTRY BLAZE V SHEFFIELD STEELERS
This was a strange game in the league champions Coventry Blaze didn't really turn up and were nowhere near as good as they had been yesterday. Steelers took a 0 - 2 lead and never really looked in danger of losing it. It was a shame as it could have been a classic game but instead it was just OK and quite entertaining.

Face off!
