10-Nov-2005 | Discuss this ArticleThe Coors Belfast Giants have had a rough time this season in their match ups against the Cardiff Devils. Accumulating 2 points from a possible 6 against the welsh side, the Devils have been one of the few teams to cause the Elite League leaders problems as they proceed through what has so far been a successful first half of the season.
There has only been a maximum of a single goal between the sides in their previous meetings and tonight the Devils return to the Odyssey Arena to face a Giants side that are determined to put an end to the struggle and at last gain 2 points against the team that could be one of the Giants main league contenders.
Coach Ed Courtenay has since had his side bolstered by the arrival of Scot Colin Shields who’s Odyssey debut last weekend made a great impression on the Giants faithful. They’ll be hoping that he can do it once again in the Giants first mid-week home game of the season.
