Cardiff Devils 6, Fife Flyers 1

They hit Steelers and Flyers for six over the weekend and more than 3,000 spectators roared their approval.
The atmosphere was electric and fans chanted ‘We are number one’ before Devils captain Jake Morissette was presented with the championship trophy after the game.
