Everyone at the Steeldogs is shocked and hugely saddened by the news that Alex Graham passed away over the weekend.

Having been a Steeldogs prospect and then made his senior debut on his 16th birthday, he had been part our family over the past few years, and to lose one of our own, at such a young age is devastating.

Dear
@BeesIceHockey
@BeesMNL
We are hearing reports that you referred to us as the “Steelers” on several occasions during tonight’s stream.
You do realise you have now forfeited any right to complain when
@JJFearnley
(or that other annoying bloke) refer to you as Bracknell?
Just going to go through the tweets. The boys felt your support tonight and thank you for that incredible wall of sound through the game.
Thank you, awesome fans
Remembering Humboldt
It's a week since a terrible accident took the lives of 16 players and staff from the Humboldt Broncos.
This video shows the tribute paid at our game at iceSheffield this week - a venue graced by the Broncos captain Logan...
What an addition to the Steeldogs this season,
#20
is just awesome.
A real legend of the game, the younger generation of Steeldogs will learn so much from Jonathan Phillips.
On the ice he has made such a huge contribution and off the ice he is the ultimate professional.

A big thanks to the MK fan who gave me a beer because he’d “bought too many”.
I am utterly confused by the concept of “too much beer” (whilst slowly supping my 1 for the night) 🍻
