Steelers had taken a 4-0 lead in the first session, adding another in the second.

Barrasso said there had been no risk involved in the unexpected performance of Ben O'Connor, who is recovering from a left ankle injury.

He added the travel plans for the Belfast Giants' game, today Sunday, were not perfect.
