A relaxed Belfast Giants goalie Tyler Beskorowany speaking after practice earlier this week admitted that he was looking forward to this weekend’s double-header against the Cardiff Devils.

“I am really looking forward to the two games,” he said. “Every time we have played against the Devils there have been excellent crowds and I expect that will be the same this weekend.”

He continued: “It's playoff hockey at this time of the season and you have to embrace that mentality. So I do really enjoy it when the Devils come to Belfast.”

Looking back to last weekend four point weekend against the Steelers and Manchester Storm, Beskorowany believes that those wins have set the Giants up well.

“The morale was definitely high after beating both Sheffield and Manchester. It is always a big boost when we can beat Sheffield, especially in their own arena, and that's case this season too.

“Then when it came to Manchester we knew we had to go into their rink and dominate them.

“We did that and we got the win. Both the wins just so the level of hockey that this team is now playing at and hopefully we can continue that.”

Beskorowany says that the squad are pleased with were the are in the standing right now, sitting at the top of the EIHL with a five point lead over the Guildford Flames.

“We are obviously happy to be at the top of the EIHL but we can’t get complacent.
