Saturday night's game was a mere 71 seconds when Vallerand put Sheffield ahead, a power-play effort worked by John Armstrong and Kevin Schulze.

Manchester needed to keep the door shut for the rest of the first period - and while they silenced the big guns they couldn't stop Tommaso Traversa scoring his fifth goal in orange colours at 18:29.
If the North West side had any hopes of getting anything out of the game, the next goal had to be their's.
Instead though, it went to Vojtech Polák; he gave Sheffield a 4-1 advantage, an easy tap-in, after a smart pass from Martin Látal.
