The Clan face a Hull Stingrays team that are battling for their playoff lives as they come up to Glasgow looking for points.

Craig Anderson joins Clan TV's Gerry McLaughlin as Braehead Clan look to keep their place atop the EIHL Table.

Braehead Clan are only four points away from clinching the Gardiner Conference after needing penalty shots to defeat Hull Stingrays 3-2.

A fast paced first period couldn't yield a goalscorer, although it can be argued the home team had the better chances, with Leigh Salters and Derek Roehl going close.

Hull got the breakthrough early in the second when Cory Tanaka found himself free to tuck the puck into the net.

Braehead hit back minutes through Scott Pitt, who showed great skill to find himself through on Stingrays goalie David Brown then execute the finish.

But Dominic Osman killed the celebrations by restoring Hull's lead 25 seconds later when he finished his chance unassisted from in front of the crease.

Then there was late drama as Neil Trimm found space with 38 seconds remaining of the game to finish an equaliser.

Overtime couldn't find a winner and it was left to penalty shots to decide the outcome of what had became a nervy finale.

Salters was successful twice and when netminder Kyle Jones denied Zach Hervato, it sealed another crucial home win for Ryan Finnerty's men.
