This summer may already feel like winter but it’s not quite hockey time yet.  However, with the season only a few weeks one week away and without knowing how much blogging time I will have I guess it’s about time to look into the season and preview each of the teams with as much knowledge as I actually have of them anyway!  Next up it’s the Chavs Blaze: MORE »

The Giants new look team will finally be put to the test tonight as they take to the ice against Huddinge.  It’s the first pre-season game the Giants have played since the old ice-cup games back in 2002.  I must admit I know very little about this Huddinge team other than that they play in the Swedish second tier of hockey.  If it’s anyway close to the top tear then this will be an excellent test for the Giants team ahead of the new season next week.  The Giants are going to be a little short benched for the contest as George Awada and Troy Neumeier are expected to miss the weekend’s games.  MORE »

It has today been confirmed that Sky will indeed screen British Hockey.  I mentioned a few days ago about the rumour they would cover the Nottingham, Sheffield game on September 13th and indeed that will go ahead on a show from 5pm until 7.30pm.  The most interesting point to read however was the wording, “The first programme”, meaning that this looks like it could be the first of many games covered by Sky Sports.  Here’s hoping.

The Giants have unveiled their new jersey’s for the upcoming season on their home website. The home jersey is a throw back to the original one from 2000-2001 and will defiantely go down well with fans.  The away one keeps the teal look which the Giants have used as their road jersey for seven years now.  I must say I really like them.  I haven’t bought a jersey for quite a few years now but I may be tempted by this one.

Theres some rumours doing the rounds that the Sheffield Steelers, Nottingham Panthers game on Wednesday 12th September will be shown live on Sky Sports.  This would be great for the league if it where the case.  I’ve always wondered for a long time why Sky haven’t looked to give the sport more coverage when you see some of the sports they do show.
