Giants back on fire…

The Giants were happy to be back at the odyssey for the first home game in a LONG time...after signing a new netminder Philippe DeRouville we've been on top form...he only signed the other day and tonight was only his second game. .............Spectacular game, we hammered the Edinburgh Capitals 7 - 0...probably our best win of the whole season! Reminded me of the kinda games we were seeing last season, only thing missing was Theo Fleury. The game was a little rough too, i was almost expecting a fight from Shawn Skiehar after someone knocked his helmet off, he followed them for a bit but gave up when they didn't want to fight.

The man of the match call was a tricky decision, after Ed Courtenay stepping down from the bench to join his team on the ice for the first time since last season (on home ice) and scoring 2 goals and an assist....it made it tough...also with our new netminder who's only been with the team for 3 days now who doesn't know any of the team tactics, plays, barely knows the lines and hasn't even trained with them....and he made a shutout on his second game with the team and first time in the odyssey! ...Personally i think he should have got MOM.

The team played really well, with Minard (current netminder) out with an injury the team had a bit more confidence knowing their goalie wasn't in pain. I'm still in awe :D
