Everyone knew this one was going to be a war – two top defensive sides, low-scoring and physical. Exactly what we got at home against our cross-Pennine rivals. ⚔️
Sheffield jumped out early, but the lads never quit. Jacob scored from distance threading a shot through a crowded goal front to tie it up and gave us every chance to steal something. We just couldn’t find that extra goal despite some massive shifts.
Top scorers Heath and Johannes were checked tighter than ever – credit to Sheffield’s D, but also shows how much respect the league has for our guys now.
🧱 Huge shout-out to Harvey in net 🛑
Competes at an elite level every single night. Can’t help us offensively from back there, but he gave us a legit chance to tie or win it right until the final buzzer. Kept us within touching distance the entire game with some massive saves.

Absolute rock on the blue line. Calm, composed, and shut down rush after rush. Outstanding performance in a huge game.
Proud of the effort, proud of the compete. Losses like this make us better. We’ll be back stronger. 💪
