The Canadian winger, who scored against Nottingham on Saturday, revealed that Thompson had delivered " a few pretty good speeches for us" in the run-up to the game.

"We know as a team we have not been good enough, especially at home" said Eberle.

But getting four lines back helped, he said.

Steelers are at Coventry Blaze this evening.
