Do believe this is the type of game this group will relish, big occasion, big crowd, home advantage and siverware to put on their cv,,,,,,,5-2 steelers victory
Actually you've mentioned the one big fear I have, we have an awful habit of having a right stink of a game, in front of a full house and when the Steelers media mouthpiece has been let loose for a week or so.. Freddie Mercury anyone...
Hopefully he'll still be using up the surplus of 'retro weekend' guff he's got in his repotiore.
We are currently in Italy. Does anyone know if it is possible to watch the final here? I see that Viaplay is not available outside the UK.
You would need some VPN software. Are you intending to try and watch it on your laptop?
I've used Windscribe VPN in the past and it's allowed me access to legitimate UK servers/services (BBC iPlayer for example), when I've been on holiday in the US. It's free to use with a 10GB monthly data limit from memory on the free tier.
Anyone know what the overtime situation will be if there is a tie after 60 mins? Set period of OT (if so how long?) followed by pens or continuous OT periods? Ta.

Isn't it 20 mins o/t then another 20 like the play off final?

Taken from the EIHL Casebook
Overtime – Challenge Cup Final and Playoff Final – In the EIHL Challenge Cup Final and Playoff Final, when a game is tied after three (3) twenty (20) minute regular periods of play, the teams shall take a normal intermission (fifteen (15) or Eighteen (18) minutes) and resume playing twenty (20) minute periods (with a normal intermission each subsequent OT period), changing ends for the start of each overtime period. The team scoring the first goal in overtime shall be declared the winner of the game. The ice is to be resurfaced at the end of regulation time and after each additional 20-minute period.
Could be a late night then!
