Injuries, illnesses and the two suspensions that were handed out to us on Friday, not ideal preparation, also compounded by the fact that we lost Owen Dell as we entered the ice on Saturday. He had a freak collision with another player and ultimately he is in a pretty bad way.

“He lost a couple of teeth and now hopefully we can get him on the mend as soon as possible.

“That is a sign of our luck at the moment. That said, that won’t stop us, we keep moving forward and we stay together.
