It’s that time of the year again. Normally at this time of the day at this time of the year I am sitting in a bar somewhere in Nottingham drinking back the 10th beer of the day, talking about the two games I had just seen and maybe even celebrating a win in the Grand National. For a lot of people nothing has changed this year but for me this is the first time since 2001 that I have missed the final-four playoffs weekend.

Still, the weekend goes on as normal and by normal I mean very normal in that the Giants aren’t even there so nothing has changed other than me not being there. Anyhow, here is how the semi-final games went this weekend.

Sheffield Steelers 5 v 2 Cardiff Devils

Coventry Blaze 2 v 6 Nottingham Panthers

So Sheffield play Nottingham in a crunch match final tomorrow. I’ll bring the result then.
