Edinburgh Capitals BLOG

I hope everyone had a great holiday and has survived the influx of turkey and stuffing.

By now everyone knows that we had a very successful weekend. We treated it as a playoff series and I was very pleased with how the team performed. We played hard for 120 minutes and got four points, equally importantly, we gave up none. We are now just two games behind Hull.

In the second game against Hull, Mark Wires sustained a severe cut to his forehead. Due to the efforts of Bonnie, Curly, Scott, Claire he got to the hospital in a timely fashion and was rescheduled for plastic surgery the following morning. I am happy to report that Mark is back at his apartment in Edinburgh and healing. He will not being playing in the Belfast game, it is too early to tell whether or not he will be ready for the weekend game at home against rival Newcastle.

Dino Bauba is still suffering from his muscle injury. He is not expected to play in 2007.

The team enjoyed the holiday having a great Christmas meal at the Castle Arms Restaurant. It was very nice of Ivan and Morvin to open their establishment on Christmas Day.

I hope all of you come back Sunday louder than ever in a very important game against the Vipers.

Happy Holidays.
