The Blackburn Renegades win silverware for the third year in a row.
Sunday 8th September – Blood, Sweat & Beers Play Off Final: Halton Huskies 5 – Blackburn Renegades 8
The Blackburn Renegades secured the Blood, Sweat and Beers Play off title after a 5 - 8 victory over Halton Huskies at Planet Ice Widnes on Sunday.
The Renegades had won the cup - in its various guises - for the past two seasons the Huskies had won the league stage of the competition this year.
The two teams had shared remarkable 10-10 draws in both of their meetings in the group stage of the competition so this season’s finale between the top two finishers was always going to be a bit of a spectacle.
The game was played at a high tempo throughout, in very good spirit and in front of a huge crowd at the Widnes rink.
