There are three league games as part of Saturday night's action in the 2023/24 Elite Ice Hockey League season.
Cardiff Devils, who have had a .500 start to their league campaign, welcome Manchester Storm to the Vindico Arena from 7pm. The Storm were the early-season league leaders, and have yet to lose a league fixture in regulation through four games. Their defeats last weekend were in cup action - meanwhile the Devils won both of their cup fixtures to start a two-game unbeaten streak. The two sides will also meet on Sunday in Manchester.

After a disappointing end to their Champions Hockey League campaign, despite an unbeaten home record, Belfast Giants return to domestic competition with a visit to the Skydome to face Coventry Blaze. The Giants have yet to lose an EIHL competition game this season, and have also won their last six straight league games in Coventry. Last weekend, the Blaze lost heavily in Cardiff before beating Guildford 6-1 back on home ice.

The day's final game to get underway is at Fife Ice Arena, where the Flyers entertain Guildford Flames. Fife have had a good start to the season, and got a shootout point off Belfast last week - the first EIHL team to take the Giants past 60 minutes this season. They've also yet to lose a league game in regulation this season. Guildford, meanwhile, are not having the start to the season they expected. They're without a league win, and only have one in the cup, giving them just a single victory from their first eight games so far.
