Glasgow’s Braehead Clan head coach John Tripp has called on his team to build on their two wins over the festive period.
The Clan travel across the Irish Sea on Saturday to face the Belfast Giants, before returning to Glasgow on Sunday to face the Dundee Stars on Hogmanay (2:00pm face-off).
Following seven straight losses, Tripp’s outfit returned to winning ways following an impressive 3-2 win against Belfast on Boxing Day.
“It was good to halt the run of losses against one of the EIHL’s top teams in Belfast” said Tripp. “In my opinion they’re probably the best team in the EIHL and with their home games they’ve got a good chance.
“We played a very disciplined game against Belfast and the hard work we’ve been showing over recent weeks saw us come away with an important two points.
“In Edinburgh we certainly didn’t play our best game, we made life difficult for ourselves but most importantly we came away with another win.
“We are now only two points away from a playoff spot and need to keep the momentum going heading into the new year.”
