Giants remain on top of the Causeway!

The Belfast Giants are another step closer to the EIHL championship today with a win over the always scrappy Sheffield Steelers 5:3 on home ice. Stevie Lyle was in goal for the Giants. Lyle was not only in great form, turning away 45 shots but was also favored with amazing luck for the night. There were several shots made by the Steelers offence that defied understanding how they didn't make it to the back of the net. Some days it just pays to get out of bed, Stevie, oh where did you hide that horse shoe?

The Giants continue to have all of their home games webcast for free. You can find the link at the right, it is both Mac and Windows friendly. It is remarkable that the owners of the Giants have made it possible for fans all over the world to watch the team gratis. The only problem, week day games occur in the midst of a work day, hummmmm how to explain to the boss that there is a Irish hockey game on the work computer in the middle of the day?

This photog and Giants fan is open to suggestions.
