The Manchester Mayhem picked up their first win of the 2024 British Para Ice Hockey League season with a 5-0 victory over Sheffield Steelstings on Sunday.
The goals came from Karl Nicholson (2), Anthony Booth (2) and Felicity Gregory, and Manchester netminder Darren Pomfrett achieved a shut-out.
The win sees the Mayhem draw level on points with the Sheffield Steelkings – who are in third place in the league table - although the Kings remain above the Mayhem by virtue of the head to head record between the two teams.
With no other games being played at the weekend, the situation at the top of the league table remains the same as before.
Peterborough Phantoms remain top with 3 wins from their 3 games so far this season, 2 points ahead of Cardiff Huskies, who have 2 wins from 2 games.
Phantoms’ Gary Farmer remains the leading
scorer at this early stage of the season with 16 goals and 1 assist from 3
games while Cardiff’s Tyler Christopher is second with 9+2 from 2 games.
This weekend sees the top two teams both in action, with the Cardiff Huskies playing the Steelkings in the Welsh capital on Saturday, 6.25pm face off and Peterborough entertaining the Mayhem on Sunday – 4.25pm face off.
