On Saturday night the Statesmen took the ice at Slough to face the Satans, with a much needed morale boosting victory after Holland, the 23.30 face off time was compounded by a few of the players getting stuck on the M4 and most importantly the goalie so we couldn't have faced off till after midnight which didn't seem like it was going to be the best omen. The game finally got underway and a good start as well with Michael scoring after just a minute, the Statesmen then steamed ahead to a 5-0 lead with a nice spread of goals by Nigel, Isaac, Mark and Ritchie before the Satans answered with a very well took goal, the period ended 6-1.
To the Satans credit they steamed out of the starting blocks in the second and within 5 mins were back into the game with a 5-1 goal difference, the game was then suddenly poised at 7-6 and the Satans had a 5 min powerplay to boot. The Statesmen survived this and with goals from Ty and Mark regained a 3 goal lead.
The 3rd period was a completely different affair with the Statesmen starting off as Slough had done the 2nd and the final score being 19-8. An enjoyable game all round. MOTM Mark
