It wasn’t one to miss as leading EIHL points scorer, Mike Hammond, made a great comeback from injury, scoring two, and scoring Storm’s 300th and 301st goals since re-forming in 2015!

NOTTINGHAM PANTHERS – 3rd October 2018. 19:30 face-off

Manchester Storm and Nottingham Panthers have already met twice this season. Saturday 8th September saw Storm away at the NIC, where they played a well fought game,  short-benched, narrowly losing by just one goal. The following day, Panthers visited the Storm Shelter, taking the two points home. Tonight sees the two teams in midweek action, with the last two being highly competitive, and this time for a Challenge Cup game, it’s not one to be missed!

Duncan Speirs, who is on a two-way contract with Sheffield Steeldogs will be icing tonight, as will Adam Barnes, who is on a two-way contract with Blackburn Hawks. Also icing tonight is Hull Pirates, Lee Bonner.
