FOR Sheffield Steelers the last couple of weeks have been about restoring banged-up bodies and getting through to the Elite League play-offs without any additional injury concerns.
Without wishing to tempt fate, so far, so good. They head to Belfast Giants for the first of two games in as many nights on Friday looking to close out the campaign in positive fashion. Having gone throughout the entire season without suffering back-to-back losses, they will not want to give up that record at the very last moment in the regular season.
The Flyers head into the final weekend of the regular season weekend embroiled in a five-way battle for the remaining thre eplay-off spots. They could have therefore done with the Steelers’ taking it easy on them but, as was the case last weekend when they returned to action for the first time since sealing the league title, there was to be no let-up from the newly-crowned champions.
