Elite League Play-offs - Live: Sheffield Steelers 5 Nottingham Panthers 4 (after OT)

SHEFFIELD STEELERS ensured a replay of last year's Elite League Play-off Final against Cardiff Devils when they beat Nottingham Panthers in overtime at the National ice Centre.

John Armstrong proved the hero for Paul Thompson's team with the winning strike at 63.47, sealing a great comeback from the Sou8th Yorkshire club, who came from two goals behind twice. Cardiff had earlier booked their place in the final with a 4-0 win over Fife Flyers in the earlier semi-final.
