Huge Possible progression Game for the Steelers
It’s another big Sunday afternoon of Steelers hockey at the Utilita Arena Sheffield as Aaron Fox and his team welcome Guildford Flames this Sunday, 18th October, with face-off at the earlier time of 4.00pm.
And with important Challenge Cup points at stake, the Steelers will be looking for another huge performance in front of the Orange Army.
Don’t forget, it’s a 4.00pm face-off this Sunday, with doors opening at 3.00pm.
Challenge Cup Qualification in Sight
The Steelers head into another important weekend of Challenge Cup action sitting proudly at the top of their group.
With 10 points from their opening six games, Aaron Fox’s side have put themselves in an excellent position as the competition approaches its decisive stages.
First up is a trip to Nottingham Panthers on Saturday evening, before the Steelers return to home ice less than 24 hours later to face Guildford Flames.
Two victories over the weekend would see the Steelers secure their place in the semi-finals of the competition.
And with the Steelers determined to finish as high as possible in their group, every point is crucial.
