Fighting | Friday 4 March 2005 by

You love your fights? You’ll love this.. Mel Angelstad has just released his 50 greatest fights on DVD..

Mel Angelstad is regarded as the greatest minor league fighter of all time and leads the minor leagues in all time penalty minutes. With over 400 pro fights to his name it’s no wonder he has the ability to release a DVD, and that’s exactly what he has done.

Round 1 (which means their is a round 2 to follow), is out this weekend with big Mel signing copies after the game on Saturday night. It involves some of his finest fights including the two against Darcy Hordichuk which many regard as the best fights ever. It also includes his epic brawl against his hero – Bob Probert.

To reserve your copy visit Pruckuk and enjoy some superb fights by Belfast Giants very own Mel Angelstad.

Johnson out with leg Injury

Players | Thursday 3 March 2005 by

After a mid ice collision by ex-Giant Dave Matsos, Giants captain Shane Johnson limped off injured and didn’t return to Thursday nights win against Cardiff. Early reports look like it is damage to the knee but the team have not confirmed anything.

Going into Friday nights game against Cardiff again Giants general manager John Elliot said that Shane would sit out the game and be re-evaluated in the morning.

How many games Shane will miss at this very curtail time of the season is still to be known…
