WE ARE LIVE

Update – A little progress on the web access. I’m hoping to be good to go for the second period. I’m hearing from dundonald that Awada is out and Thornton ices in this game.

Update- apologies coverage will not start on time. I am trying to fix the problem. Will continue to advise.

NOTE- As I type this on my phone I am having difficulties gaining web access. I will advise in the next 15 minutes on the situation. Apologies. UKHL

LIVE tonight on UKHL.

Hull, laden with suspensions and injuries, take their game to the Dundonald International Ice Bowl. Where they will face a Belfast Giants squad who’s opening to the season has been quite underwhelming.

Join Patrick and Marty as they relay all the info from Dundonld, as well as take on your comments and questions in our fully interactive service.

LIVE This Weekend – EIHL Week 3

Week 3 of Elite League action and the Newcastle Vipers still sit top of the tree after the first few rounds of games. But the league is very tight, by the time this weekend passes it could all change.

Edinburgh join the party, at last, this Saturday evening in Hull, under a week before their visitors from North America arrive in Scotland, and with a team containing more ex-NHL players than any other, this side may make a massive impact and shock a lot of people.

To date UKHL cannot find any live coverage from Edinburgh, we know they had a webcast last season, but can find no details of this returning. If you know of any coverage live from Murrayfield, e-mail us at updates@ukhockeylive.com.

A lot of thanks to John Walker who has passed on detail of the Edinburgh Webcast for addition to the blog.

Now, to this weeks games.
