Nottingham Panthers Head Coach Danny Stewart chats with Panthers TV ahead of the huge title-deciding weekend.
It's set to be the most exciting run-in for years with three sides - Panthers, Belfast Giants and Sheffield Steelers - eyeing the chance to take the biggest prize of them all.
Giants are currently top of the table on 76 points with Sheffield second on 75 points and Panthers third with 72 points.
The final weekend fixtures in the title race are as follows....
Saturday 5th April
Belfast Giants v Nottingham Panthers (7pm)
Sheffield Steelers v Cardiff Devils (7pm)
Sunday 6th April
Nottingham Panthers v Belfast Giants (5:30pm)
Coventry Blaze v Sheffield Steelers (5:30pm)
Stewart said: "Going into the final weekend with a chance to lift silverware, it’s phenomenal and exciting. The guys are up for it.
"To get to where we are has been a team effort. It starts with everything that's been done off the ice and Omar (Pacha) with the recruiting has given me the resources.
"The day-to-day staff that are with me, embracing the grind every day, and the players who have been phenomenal this year. It's a collective effort."

Panthers can win the Elite League title if they beat Belfast twice in regulation-time over the weekend and Sheffield are beaten by both Cardiff and Coventry in regulation-time.
Two regulation-time wins would see Panthers and Giants end level on 76 points. Nottingham would have more wins in regulation (Panthers 32, Giants 31), so Danny Stewart's side would win the title in this scenario.
Sunday is a sell-out
The visit of Belfast on Sunday (6th April) - a game sponsored by Karen Burgin Ltd - is already a sell-out (5:30pm face-off).

Our opponents won't be known until the end of the regular-season and are determined by the standings in the Elite League table.
This game is proving very popular too with the bowl already more three-quarters full with over a week to go until the game.
