Nottingham Panthers’ Head Coach Corey Neilson has agreed a new two-year contract with the Elite League club.

Neilson led Panthers to victory in the Challenge Cup and play-offs last season.

He said: “I’m excited to be back at the helm I think there are lot of challenges we want to conquer as a hockey club.

“The Continental Cup is up for grabs and we think that we can be competitive in one of these European championships and go on and put a pretty good push in there.

“Obviously the league championship is something that is always in our sights and we want to do a little bit better in that.

“I want to win, I want to continue to push and I want to continue to improve.”
