Patience key for Stingrays to slay Giants

With just eight games of the regular season remaining, the Hull captain realises his side need to take something from their trip to Dundonald if they are to stand any chance of lifting themselves off the bottom of the table and above Newcastle Vipers.

The North East club are currently nine points clear of Hull, having played a game more but the two sides still have to play each other three more times before the end of the season.

And Glowa, who has nine goals and 31 assists to his name, believes Hull can close the gap on Newcastle by adding an away victory over Belfast to the two home wins they have enjoyed over the Giants already this season.

"Belfast are a top side who play well at home, but we have had some close games with them this season and there's no reason why we can't go there and get the two points," said Glowa.

"We need to play good defence and get the puck in their zone and keep the pressure on. It's about patience and discipline.

Sheffield Steelers last night came from behind four times to seal a 5-4 triumph at Cardiff Devils to leapfrog Edinburgh Capitals up to fifth in the table.
