Sheffield Steelers coach Dave Matsos has said their Elite League play-off victory was the "sweetest feeling".

The Steelers secured their first play-off title since 2004 as goals from Jonathan Phillips and Dan Tessier sealed a 2-0 win over Coventry Blaze.

"I can't even put it into words to be honest," the Steelers coach told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"Being part of this weekend on the winning side is probably the sweetest feeling, to be honest."

It was Matsos' first title as a coach, but he was quick to praise his players and added: "We get to be champions all summer now and hats off to these guys."
