Nottingham Panthers host Guildford Flames this evening (Saturday 24th January) on another big night of action at the Motorpoint Arena (19:00 face-off).
The two sides go head-to-head with vital Elite League points on the line in a game sponsored by Sallyann and Olivia Stokes on behalf of The Renewal Trust.
It's the first match of a double-header this weekend with the two sides meeting in Guildford tomorrow night (Sunday) at 18:00.
The clash this evening on Lower Parliament Street will have another huge crowd with tickets very limited. You will be able to pay on the door at the Box Office ahead of face-off, but you're urged to secure your seats asap.
As Panthers were winning the Continental Cup last weekend, results elsewhere saw us fall to third in the Elite League table with 45 points from 29 matches.
Belfast Giants currently lead the way on 48 points but have played a game more, while second-placed Cardiff Devils 46 points from 31 matches.
View from the Bench
​Head Coach, Danny Stewart, said: "A couple of teams have passed us in the standings but there's so much hockey left.
"We know we have a tough weekend ahead against a tough Guildfod team who have already humbled us at home this season.
"We have to be dialled in and get back to work this weekend."
