'Karma' catches up with Knights as winning streak ended by Steeldogs
Yorkshire Evening Post
|October 28, 2025
Ryan Aldridge felt it was only a matter of time before Leeds Knights' impressive start to the NIHL National season would come to an end-so it proved at home to Sheffield Steeldogs on Sunday night.
When the nine-game winning streak was finally curtailed, it was in comprehensive style, the Steeldogs ending their 985-day wait for a win over their Yorkshire rivals in a meaningful fixture with a deserved 6-2 win.
Aldridge thought his team had got lucky when they were in Sheffield 10 days earlier, coming back home up the M1 with a 3-2 win he felt they didn’t really deserve.
"Karma," he said bluntly in his post-match interview. "We've been winning games on the road that we shouldn't have been winning. The last game in Sheffield, we shouldn’t have won that game I don’t think.
"Gossy [netminder Sam Gospel] has been keeping us in games and on Sunday we reaped the rewards of karma. I thought Sheffield were good, I thought they really wanted it and I just don't think we matched it.
