THE WEEK AHEAD: Triple threat
Glasgow Clan, sponsored by Aspray Glasgow West, are wasting no time in getting back to action in a week that will see them play three times over the next seven days.
All three games will present different obstacles for the coaching team, but there is also the chance to get back to winning ways, which is something that can’t come quickly enough.
More to come on that, of course, but let’s get you up to date with what’s been going on:
WEDNESDAY
Nottingham Panthers vs Glasgow Clan (Elite Ice Hockey League, face off 7:30pm)
Heading into what is only the second meeting of the season between these two sides, it’s even more unusual to see Nottingham Panthers in the bottom spot in the standings.
That doesn’t mean it’s going to be a walk in the park when Clan head to the Motorpoint Arena to fulfil this rearranged fixture.
Both teams are needing points to help in their campaigns as we head into the final week in January, so expect a hard-fought game that could very well go the distance like it did when they shared 13 goals in October.
SATURDAY
Glasgow Clan vs Manchester Storm (Elite Ice Hockey League, face off 7:00pm)
It’s Pride Night and we’re looking forward to this one as Manchester Storm make their way to Glasgow for Clan’s second game of the week.
Storm, of course, finished last weekend with a 7-3 win at the Storm Shelter, so it’s a chance for Clan to reclaim those points in what’s expected to be another busy one at Braehead Arena.
We’re expecting to see rainbows galore all over the place as we show our support to the LGBT communities so get yourself along for what is always a fun night.
SUNDAY
Coventry Blaze vs Glasgow Clan (Elite Ice Hockey League, face off 5:30pm)
Clan’s latest trip to the Skydome is never one to enjoy when you consider Glasgow’s record down there, but it’s always another opportunity to turn that around.
When you consider the previous three meetings have gone beyond regulation time so far this season, there won’t be much to separate them when they get together again.
There’s nothing like ending the week on high and this would be a great way to do so with a win, as Jason Morgan’s men get ready to sign off January.
