FACE-OFF TIME CHANGE FOR MANCHESTER TRIP ON SATURDAY
The Nottingham Panthers' Viaplay Elite League match at Manchester Storm on Saturday will now face-off at 4:45pm.
This is to avoid a clash with England's World Cup quarter-final with France the same day.
The Storm said in a statement on their website: "Due to England progressing to the quarter-final of the World Cup, this fixture will now take place at the earlier time of 4:45pm with doors open at 4:15pm.
"The England-France game will also be shown on the big screen from 7pm. This is free of charge for anyone holding a valid match ticket.
"Going head-to-head with an England quarter-final, we believe would significantly harm our gate and the club would like to thank the Manchester Storm Academy and Nottingham Panthers for accepting the change on short notice."
