Kevin Parrish is hoping the Invicta Dynamos can win their final two games this year and go into 2014 pushing for titles.

The Dynamos have been beaten just four times all season, seeing them sit second in the NIHL South league and top of their cup group.

This weekend they head to Milton Keynes on Saturday night to take on a Thunder side they’ve already beaten 15-5 this season.

A lot rests on this game with a victory gifting the winner two points in both the league and cup.

With so much at stake for Parrish’s side, the Dynamos Head Coach wants his team to give everything at a rink they’re unfamiliar with:

“It’s a massive game and with no game on the Sunday, we’ve got no excuses about keeping anything back.”

“It’s meant to be a tiny rink, smaller than Gosport’s and the Isle of Wight, but we’ve got the depth and if we go there with the right attitude and not the attitude we had when we beat them 15-5.”

“It is going to be a totally different game and we go from an ice rink to a shoe box, so we have got to make sure we shoot the puck, we crash, we bang and we come away with a dirty road win.”

Having no game on Sunday, the Dynamos end their 2013 fixtures with a home game against Streatham Redskins on Sunday 22nd Decemeber and Parrish wants to end the year in style with two victories:

“We’ve got to keep rebuilding, every shift, every game and then good things will happen here this year.”

“It’ll be nice to win both of them and then put us in good stead, go away, refuel and spend some time with our families and spend some time away from the rink, which is what some of us need to do at the moment.”

“We need that time away to get that hunger back and come back in the New Year refreshed and ready to go.”

Ironically, it will be Streatham that the Dynamos face as their first game back in 2014, in the league away from home on Saturday 4th January before returning to the Silver Blades Ice Bowl in Gillingham for their Southeast Trophy clash with Chelmsford Chieftains 24 hours later.

With the side having had such a great start to the season, Parrish has been linked with a move to the Peterborough Phantoms, but has ruled it out and pledged his immediate future to the Dynamos:

“I’ve been here years and I feel like I’m part of the furniture. I have had absolutely no contact from Peterborough. I know a few guys there and no one has contacted me.”

“It’s just a rumour that’s gone out there. I wouldn’t go to another club in this league, in the league above, I don’t know, but that’s definitely not the right move for me.”

“I want to see it out here this season.”
