Falling short of Play-Off success will not take the shine off a remarkable season of joy for Belfast Giants
This was not the way it was supposed to end, the Belfast Giants finishing the season dogging it out with the Sheffield Steelers in the 'Hangover Game' (also known as the Elite League Play-Offs' completely pointless bronze medal match).
After winning the League title, adding it to the Challenge Cup they won in March, the stage was set for the Giants to create more history under Adam Keefe. A second Grand Slam in three years beckoned; the Cardiff Devils and then, in the Final, either the Sheffield Steelers or the Nottingham Panthers standing in the way of perfection.
