The first trophy of the 2021/22 season will be awarded tonight, and fittingly it's the last one that was awarded before the COVID-19 pandemic caused professional ice hockey to stop for over 18 months across the UK.

Tonight in Belfast, the Giants host the Cardiff Devils to decide who'll lift the 2022 Premier Sports Challenge Cup in what is expected to be a sell0out game at the SSE Arena.
