HIGHLIGHTS: 02/02/24 – Glasgow Clan 2 Sheffield Steelers 5
Off Simpson versus pelic in the face off Circle and we’re off the corner this again lackovic finds it onetime effort from Matt Bley good stop from Matt Greenfield yeah great shift by the kin there just cycling the puck holding on to it and then when they get a chance to
Put it out in the middle Barry here is a great shooter you know gets a hold of it but kind of right at the goalie there Greenfield up for the task for that Center support so we can just give a little Touchback and uh be able to make
Shorter passes instead of cross ice long passes the Steelers have scored Mitchell balus bringing it away from this right hand side Robert D was there Lovich couldn’t turn around quick enough the short pass to balus and he sends it home for the Steelers an opening goal so that something the Steelers I’m
Sure will look to take advantage of as soon as they can shot in that’s a good save from Jake Kye shot from the top of the face off circle from Harper it was Patrick Harper as I said made his debut through the week in the challenge cup semi-final against the Coventry
Blaze Steelers will come at them again San dring the pass now DED on the right hand side couldn’t play it P Callen in front of him CL short-handed Hayden opportunity here Greenfield with a stop and it’s Gary Hayden they open a goal 100th point for Gary Hayden in the elite league and the clan have The Equalizer
Shorthanded great work from Reed Patrick that short-handed play Gary Hayden making the most of it with a rebound now wling Steelers will look to respond to that immediately that penalty is about to expire and Clan will have a full compliment of skaters it’s roach takes it on the outside tries it
Backhanded off Green Field again Cody Saul is back in play Nichols tries it that looked a little awkward for Kylie but he still made the save though and this this crowd have come to life yeah for sure it’s a big penalty kill like you said we’re going against
The top penalty kill in the league and then we get a short-handed goal uh very important not just to get scored on but to get that equalizer make it one1 against you know a top team in the league Here and Now out there you know
He’s going to the front of the net so deer looking to shoot the pucks it’s just the matter of getting it getting it through their through their Wingers and uh and getting it on net with some traffic some shot from Ryan Harrison there Greenfield had to be full alert
Here’s valand he’s a danger and he fires it past Kylie to put this Steelers 21 ahead with 213 to go in this period ferand making his move through the center takes it to the left and Snipes it Home another line in takes it on from wling rebounded shot terrific save from Kylie as that goes wide and allows Klean to get it under control to it out there saome and held his face him down to thece got straight back up again KY tried one infield had to divert it over
Lovich that’s a little bit too long for KY had to Lunge to try and get hold of it but Jake Kylie hold [Applause] it Kevin tanzi not t you rather Cody Saul and Brian diffley those two coming together couple of right punches from Cody Saul diffley
Tries to hold off Sal and defly goes down to his knees Cody Sal letting defly know what he thinks of that one yeah it was uh you know guys both teams just Chang in there I don’t know if they saw the replay both teams just Chang and kind of a little
Mix up there and then diffley gives him a cross check right in the ribs uh kind of drops barri Barry’s unexpected looking at a different guy and then and then gets a cross check right in the ribs there and then Soul comes to the aid of his
Team backing hard on this near side one back by the clan champin look to escape with it Patrick tries the shot comes off Greenfield tried to follow it up but covered well by the Steelers goalie yeah for sure battle on the wall good play here Patrick gets a really good shot he
Has uh Hayden coming back door her there uh but good idea to get that shot on net especially with the you know the likes of Patrick shot he’s got a good shot on him still 2-1 for the Steelers they still have that slender lead from the first lead sorry the first period
R well nicely for luk Lynch he has it it’s a power play goal and the clan have leveled well hit by Luke Lynch and again the clan never gave up in that situation Lynch arriving late sends it nicely into the net 22 Co okay back hands it doesn’t quite go
Far enough though tanzi has got room to work good shot good save from Jake Kye yeah big save by kills there a little turnover there uh from the clan late in the shift and uh but a big save by kills gobbles it up and uh gives the
Clan a chance to get some fresh guys out there for uh defensive Zone job here away from tanzi tanzi Lost His stick in the process CAD looking for the pass that stick proved to be a bit of an obstacle there wling Alex holds him off and somehow
Wling has managed to get the puck over the line Steelers restore their lead three goals to two Alex Ro tried to hold him off but unlucky Jake K late 3-2 KCK tansi us his body to in ahead of Charlie comeso didn’t quite work out kmes on the puck tries the shot pel
Going for any loose change and S think just basically telling pelik to back off a little bit Yeah Puck was loose there uh pel pel’s not a dirty player he plays all the whistle and he thought the puck was laying there loose uh swatman didn’t agree kind of push him
Down but uh they probably spent a lot of time playing against each other in the east coast so uh probably had their fair share battles in front of the net especially the way Mike P plays yeah old rivalries resumed between those two saw something straight over he’s Kelly doing his bit
Defensively well done from the clan number 27 that’s Clan bring it away from that corner County outside to lovic Lovich tries the shot straight into the chest of Greenfield good effort from Robert Lovich yeah for sure uh you know Clan doing a good job there getting the puck
Up quick going with speed and Rob lovic comes down that wall good play from County to kick it out wide and then drive to take it to the corner comes loose Steelers take care of it now short-handed chance Mark Simpson one-on-one with Jake Kylie and Jake Kylie is beating a short-handed goal for
The Sheffield Steelers puts them 42 ahead another set back for the clan as that opened up for them and Simpson made the most of it yeah and then I guess that’s that makes it even there too uh short-and a goal for both teams here so Barry pass inside reys Kelly tries it
Little too high good effort though from ree Kelly Harrison in the center Matt bar good layoff from Ryan Harrison Matt Barry unlucky yeah great play there to Harrison in the slot Harrison kicks it out to the back Canon and Greenfield almost looked like he almost knew that
Pass was coming just cuz Ry he was not done yet though Kylie has to patrol his crease with great care and attention sent across the crease Kylie with the block Clan need to get rid of it right now sa and picks up at the Blue Line
Fires it in Kylie goes low and again good stop from the net minder yeah quite the shift there uh Kylie laying on his stomach there makes a big save uh you know the Sheffield Steelers do a good job and that when you’re in that instance you got to you know if you’re
The clan defenseman you got to get a pickup stick or take the body and try and get that puck loose for one of the for so luk Lynch in the face off Circle F have gone for the extra skater Falls for Musa and usah adds the fifth goal empty Neta 118 to
Go and Steelers will clinch that those two points yeah Steelers make quick work of that face off play they just do a hard Rim there and con to Creek Head say to con to sweep it in first time doesn’t quite work and the seconds tick down and that
