Pretty likely that we'll end up playing Nottingham with Home advantage! My other guesses would be 1v8, 2v5 and 3v6 (unless Sheffield go for the slightly shorter trip to Guildford)

Seedings:
  1. Sheffield Steelers
  2. Milton Keynes Lightning
  3. Belfast Giants
  4. Cardiff Devils
  5. Guildford Flames
  6. Fife Flyers
  7. Nottingham Panthers
  8. Dundee Stars

There is seriously no way that MK have chosen to play Nottingham over Guildford/Fife.

There's something fishy with it working out 1v8 2v7 3v6 4v5.

I wouldn't even say it's "unbelievable".

I literally do not believe that MK chose Nottingham ahead of the others voluntarily.
Unless its to do with distance/travel. You might even say that about our draw if it is the Flames we play. That's going to be one hell of a tough draw against Flames. They are a nemesis team.

I dont think it is a obvious as it looks.
Whatever choice is made the next game must be considered as the S/F is fixed.
The Steelers must choose who they want in the S/F.I wonder if there could be a difference of opinion between Thommo and Smith.
Whatever happens we dont have a choice being bottom of the top four.
i dont see any of these matchups being easy for any team.To win the cup you still have to beat the supposedly best team.
At the start of the season we as champions would have been expected to be "better" placed
