The game plan wasn't on track for some time as Hull raced away to a 4-0 lead at the end of the first period.

     First game of the new year  Bees share the double header points with the Pitbulls   On Saturday Bees made the trip to Bristol to play the Pitbulls who were buoyed by a win in Swindon on Boxing Day and they were the team to have the edge on the evening with a 4-2 win. Bees goals came from Gianni Vitali who has 8+4 from his 16 games played and Dominik Gabaj who joined the elite few with 50+ points in the season so far (Marcel isn't far behind as he is currently on 49 points).  Sunday saw the Pitbulls visit Slough on Neon night and after a shaky start Bees finally found their mojo and we were treated to a performance reminiscent of earlier in the season when the team were flying high. Pitbulls were on top in the first period taking a 3-1 lead into the break. Bees only goal coming from Gianni Vitali but it was a superb one. Early in the second Bees could have scored as the puck lay in the crease but they couldn't get the tap in needed to put it across...
