Tweets of the Week: Panther, Pollard and Puck drops

Let’s take a look at some of the tweets that summed up the weekend across British Ice Hockey

1.  It’s fair to say Augsburger Panther were impressive by the contingent who travelled from Northern Ireland for the CHL meeting between the teams yesterday.

What a game, what an atmosphere! We hope our paths cross again in the future, @BelfastGiants! Best of luck for the season! 🍀 #AEVinternational #WeAreGiants #ChampionsGoBeyond pic.twitter.com/SUTmRsK18g

2. Manchester Storm’s Jared Aulin wasn’t only impressed with his own fans, but seems taken with one of his team-mates too

What a start to the season. Unreal fans, amazing environment and a huge win! Proud to be apart of this organization, playing alongside my teammates and in front of the buzzing fans… that’s only one, let’s build from there. #FawcettIsMyFavourite #FawcyBear #WakaWakaWaka

5. Matt Haywood’s Testimonial events from Glasgow Clan continued with the golf day on Sunday and it seems the caddies are getting younger, with young Charley Haywood getting into the spirit of things

Mini Haywood got some golf in too!

Here she is watching Daddy duff another one 👀🥴 pic.twitter.com/Lz9p1yEPJr

6. Steve King, one of Cardiff’s owners, certainly got in on the CHL spirit as he savoured the hospitality in Graz on Saturday

The end of another incredible @cardiffdevils road trip. What a time. Thanks to everyone who made this so great and most of all, thanks to the boys for actually winning a game while I was here!! And oh what a win it was. #RedArmyForever

8. Is this what they mean by the “dirty areas?” (Apologies for language here)

#FIFvsCLN | P2 | 0-0 – 16.57| Better play by Clan as Lidhammar gets a shit away but Morrison saves !
