'Last night, the Cassidy Coventry Blaze pulled off the most sensational result in the history of the club, beating top European club Red Bull Salzburg by 3 goals to 2.
Following a 3-0 loss to AAB Aalborg, and up against a team which has a multi-million pound playing budget, including at least one player whom earns more than the entire Blaze team – Salzburg were overwhelming favourites for the evening game against the Cassidy Coventry Blaze.

Salzburg, who beat HK Slavija 8-0 just one day earlier feature current Stanley Cup champion Ric Jackman, alongside experienced former NHL players Reinhard Divis, Brad Fast, Doug Lynch & Josh Green in a star-studded roster. They also feature former NHL coach Pierre Page on the bench as well as Stanley Cup winner Reijo Ruotsalainen – who played in Coventry with the NHL Hockey Stars for Hope tour.'

Full report, for those interested, below.

I post this because I support the Blaze and you can see that Ric Jackman now plays for Salzburg. Blaze were scoreless until the 56th minute of the game, managed to tie the game right at the end of the third period and win it in overtime. Brilliant!

Long time Ducks fans are fully aware of Pierre Page. He coached one of our least memorable campaigns.
