Goals and assists
Manchester Storm got over their recent goal shy-ness with a convincing win over Sheffield Steelers in the Challenge Cup.
Attacking from the off, Scott Simmons put the hosts ahead after 59 seconds, before Raymond Grewal made it two at 3:36. Just over eight minutes had been played when Kyle Hope put the Storm three up, with Zach Sullivan making it four before the 15 minute mark.
In a crazy opening period, Michael Davies hit two goals to get the Steelers back into things before the break.
Cody Thompson's goal at 30:45 just about put the Storm clear, before Adam Hughesman found the empty net with 79 seconds to play.
