Nottingham Panthers produced a superb performance on the road to beat Cardiff Devils 3-2 in the Elite League.

Panthers were without netminder Ryan Bednard and defenceman Quinn Wichers because of injury. Didrik Henbrant missed the game through illness.

Jason Grande started between the pipes with Luca Sheldon as back-up.

Tim Doherty and Matt Alfaro had chances inside the opening four minutes, before Sam Herr put Panthers ahead with a sweet wrist-shot from the high slot (11:30).

At the other end, Grande made a great save to deny Tyler Busch from close-range.

A tight second period saw neither side give much away with Kristoff Kontos and Herr having the best chances for Danny Stewart's side.

Panthers were sound defensively and Grade made a good stick save to deflect Joey Martin's shot wide.

Cardiff levelled through Josh MacDonald's one-timer from the right-circle on the powerplay (47:31).

The game burst into life with two goals in 21 seconds as Alfaro fed Logan Neilson for a one-timer in the left-circle (51:19), before Zach O'Brien tipped-in the equaliser for the hosts (51:40).

Kontos and Mitch Fossier combined to set-up Herr for his second and the game-winner with a beauty of a one-timer from the right-circle (55:01).
