Sheffield Steelers.

I'm so happy for this. Even though I no longer live in Sheffield I steel (intended spelling mistake) keep track of the team and their start this season is the worse in team history, the previous coach, a player for the team's first couple of seasons, was let go due to gradually decreasing the quality of the players in the 3+ years he was in charge and recruited the team (In British hockey there is a high turnover of players each season, this year the Steelers had 16 new players).

From Ken Priestlay to Tom Barrasso, I'm very happy with the Penguins heritage in the sister steel cities.

Recalling Barrasso's personable nature, I'll bet the post-game interviews will be sweet.
