Devils hold off spirited Flyers for winning weekend

Cardiff Devils held off a late Fife Flyers comeback to claim their second victory of the Elite League weekend.

Devils travelled to Scotland after a flurry of late goals saw them defeat Guildford Flames 4-1 in the Welsh capital on Friday night.

Jimmy Oligny opened the scoring at Fife Ice Arena on 15 minutes before Riley Brandt doubled the lead in a second period which saw Jeremy Masella and Nolan Yaremko called for fighting.

Brandon Estes added a powerplay goal in the final period, before Flyers pair Giordano Finoro and Keaton Jameson found the net to set up a frantic final five minutes.

And while Flyers pushed for an equaliser, Cedric Lacroix took advantage of an empty net to seal the win for Devils.
