Champions of the EIHA Rec section!

 

Knights victorious at Sheffield! 

The Invicta Knights recreational Ice Hockey team returned as champions from the annual Tournament at Sheffield.

 

For the second time in three years the Knights overcame challenges from 14 other teams to take the title in style.

 

Wins against Eastern All Stars, Peterborough Phoenix and Sheffield Blaze and just the one loss to Blackburn Falcons on Saturday was enough to see them qualify for Sunday’s Championship games.

 

A hard game against the eventual runners up Bradford led to a 1:0 victory for the Knights in their first game early on Sunday and was followed by revenge over Blackburn with another 1:0 win in their second.

 

A tense match against the Royal Navy team was looking like a draw until the Knights scored with just 5 seconds left!

 

The final game against Whitley Bay was a nail biter with the Knights needing just a draw to lift the cup.  They had other ideas though and came out attacking from the first whistle with the best hockey that they had played all weekend.  A 3:0 final score line demonstrated their dominance and led to much praise from their opponents.

 

Captain Tim Bill led the celebrations as he raised the cup above his head and Knights’ Sami Kasteniemi received the defenceman of the tournament trophy, an extra birthday present for him!

 

Team Manager Bill Parkinson said that “this was a brilliant team effort by a mixture of veteran and young players who thoroughly deserved the title for their commitment over the weekend both on and off the ice.  A special mention must go to ex Invicta Dynamos’ netminder Murray Tester who maintained a shut out in 6 of the 8 games played over the weekend!”

Good turnout against the Swindon Panthers yesterday guys - if only they hadn't scored more than us we would have beat them!

For those of you who were not there we lost 9-4 with goals from Rats - (great goal!)Rider, Craig and Grubeeeerrrrr (flukey goal!). Despite a poor start (as always guys!) with 2 goals down inside 3 minutes we did pull it back a bit and played some good hockey.

Dont forget that we have home games for the next two Sundays - 5:15 face off - 23rd against Streatham Chiefs and 30th against Slough Satans.

Knights Vs Met PDF Print E-mail

A good game last night that was very even until the police's speed limit was reduced by tiredness. Knights got off to a good start with goals from Rider (2) and Gruberrrrrrr inside 9 minutes. The wheels came off a bit then as the Met fought back to equalize at 8.43, 10.33, 11.09 and to take the lead at 11.29! A quick reply from Jonny Arnold settled the nerves but 2 more from the boys in blue saw the Knights licking their wounds at the end of the first 4:6. Goals from Gruber, a stunning effort from Ben Colao as he regained his feet to slot wide on the wing, one from Joel who decided to join in(!) and a power play goal from Captain Spencer with only one in reply saw a tied 7 all game at 31.31. 3 more goals from the Knights before the end of the 2nd showed what was to come though and in the third period the Met had no real reply to the larger Knights squad who went on to win 19:8.

Gruber 5+3, Joel 4+4, Colao 4+1,Rider 3+4, Spence 1+1, Jonny 1+0, Janne 1+0 and selfless Sami 0+4.
