Post What BIH team do you support?

If you follow BIH, what team do you support?

I support Hull Stingrays, only because my second name is Hull :D

First ice hockey game I saw was between the Cardiff Devils and the Romford Raiders.

Cardiff were up like 3-1, and Romford scored about 5 in the final period. Was a fantastica game.

I use to training there, would either be playing for them or Alexandra Palace if i hadn't moved out of London, can't say I strongly watch the BIH which sounds bad, but I don't like the rules or the level they play... I'm totally in the wrong country lol, would prefer to play in Russia or Germany (they play HARD) guess I'm going to have to go neutral on this one :p (crap answer i know)

Go to a few games a season, like Chris. I know im nothing like there standard etc, but the level is so much below NHL, AHL, OHL, KHL. The reffing is shocking aswell!

Cardiff get a really good atmosphere, its one of the reason i go.

Also get trained by the Devils, mainly Phil Hill (Just coached GB team) and Max Birbraer both good funny guys, also Brent Pope coaches.

I don't get to go at all as much as I'd like.

Almost claimed a souvenir from that game. Only wanted the broken stick as a momento from my first game, but it had dissapeared the next time I looked at the bench :(

It was still a great game, and it was fantastic to feel a bit of atmosphere. I don't really follow BIH by watching games, just look for facebook updates from the Stingrays page. NHL is the only hockey I get to watch, and even then, it will either be:

1.A team that isn't the Penguins on ESPN at about 23:00 to anywhere up to 3:00 (usually Vancouver and the likes)

2.A rubbish internet stream of the Penguins that constantly breaks up

3.Something important to do the day after, so can't stay up all night for ice hockey.

It's tough just following this sport in the UK, let alone playing it!

That sucks, taking something home to remember a moment is always nice, maybe lots of pictures next time ? following hockey in the UK is near impossible unless you spend ages looking for all the correct information, we have partners "Pucks Across The Pond" their link is on the home page. These guys know their stuff and can keep you up to date on the latest NHL news. They also post Podcasts that i can't stop listening to, check them out

Just like most of you, I watch more NHL rather than British Ice Hockey but I like to see the Braehead Clan doing well just because it is my local team.

If only they could make BIH almost as entertaining to watch as The NHL we'd all support it more :/ it's a shame
