AVFTB: League Realities

League hockey is here, and the Belfast Giants’ opening week was a mixed one: a gutsy 1-0 win at Coventry Blaze, with Jake Kupsky’s shutout and a Jake Gaudet tip-in the difference, followed by a 5-2 defeat at Cardiff Devils.

The lads break down both games, from the video review on Gaudet’s goal to the power-play swing that turned it Cardiff’s way.

We’re joined by brothers Nicolas and Patrick Guay, now on the same side for the first time after years as junior rivals, to talk about life as teammates, the road to Belfast and what this group can achieve.

We also look around the league, including Glasgow Clan parting ways with head coach Mike Sirant after a winless start, Guildford’s Dustyn McFaul being banned for kneeing, Coventry’s eight-goal win over Dundee and a week dominated by video reviews.

Then we preview a big weekend for the Giants: Glasgow Clan at The O2 in the Challenge Cup on Saturday, followed by a trip to Manchester Storm at the AO Arena on Sunday.
