Currently the Giants are stuck in the middle of the second period against Edinburgh with the game delayed due to a hole in the ice in front of one of the goals. We’ve had six men out on the ice staring into a hole – a typical site around Belfast – and we’ve had three or four fire extinguishers used to try combat the problem with Co2 leaving the Odyssey Arena a probable fire hazard due to a lack of extinguishers left. No word yet on the game being officially postponed but if the problem cannot be fixed couldn’t they just bus the players up to Dundonald in full kit and have the fans follow after in their cars and finish the game up there?

Update: The Giants game was cancelled with news to follow on what happens to the fixture now? But that is what you get for ice fishing during a Hockey game.
