Fife Flyers 2 - 4 Cardiff Devils

Faceoff: 19:15 - 08/10/11

It  took a goal inside the final minute of the game from the Devils to make  sure the points were going back to the Welsh Capital. Up until then  Fife were very much in the game.

 

Only the one goal in the opening period and it came the way of the visitors as Phil Hill found the net at 16.14.
The visitors added a second goal from Josh Batch at 31.49 and then a strike from
Jeff Pierce at 34.08 looked to have put them in  easy street. However, a powerplay goal from Danny Stewart at 18.54 gave  the home side some hope.
A strike from Mike Hamilton at 41.09 suddenly  made it an interesting game. With Chris Wands in the bin for slashing,  the Devils made the extra man count as Scott Matzka found the net with a  powerplay goal at 59.07 for the Devils to go home with the points.
