Glasgow Clan ended 2024 by completing a double over Fife Flyers, A full house at Braehead Arena saw the Clan come out with a 5-1 win.
Having had a tough time over the past month or so, Fife did well to contain their hosts in the opening stages. However, Tyson McLellan's excellent pass set up Cole Ully to score at Janis Voris' far post to open the scoring with 7:36 played. Voris was a large part of the reason why the visitors trailed by just one through 20 minutes.
Having stopped Matt Stief on a breakaway, Voris was unfortunately picking the puck out of the back of his next just a few moments later - a neat give and go involving the former set up Felix Pare to double the home side's lead. The Flyers had limited chances, but didn’t help themselves when Lucas Chiodo’s attempt at putting a puck over the line inadvertently stopped his own team scoring – were it a Clan stick, it would have been an excellent goal-line clearance.
Clan's third of the night was put home by Matt Berry at the top of the crease, but challenged, unsuccessfully by the Flyers for goalie interference. Despite that, Massimo Carozza got the visitors on the board, breaking Lucas Brine's shutout at 49:18.
McLellan and Pare both added goals in the final two minutes to wrap up a 5-1 win and move Clan two points closer to the top six.
