Sheffield Steelers: Full schedule for the 2024-25 Elite League and CHL season

SHEFFIELD STEELERS will begin the defence of their Elite League regular season title on home ice - when they take on Belfast Giants, one of the teams expected to push them closest for it.

The Giants pay a first visit of the season to the Utilita Arena on Sunday, September 29 (4pm).

The Steelers will already have started their season earlier than usual due to qualifying for the Champions Hockey League after winning the 2023-24 regular season title.
