Swindon Wildcats produced a ruthless attacking display, sweeping aside Hull Seahawks 7-0, with Sean Richards the start of the show.
On Saturday night, Swindon welcomed Hull to the Better Link Centre, looking to extend their excellent run in the NIHL National Division.
Richards opened at 5:38 with a short-handed finish, then doubled the lead on the power play three minutes later.
Owen Griffiths added a third before the opening period ended, leaving the hosts firmly in control.
Reed Sayers extended the advantage early in the second period, before Matt Vermaeten scored at 30:22.
Richards completed his treble shortly afterwards, with Ben O’Connor and Liam Fraser providing the assists.
Vermaeten struck again at 33:48 to complete a three-goal burst in under three and a half minutes.
Richards finished with three goals and an assist, while Chris Jones and Caden Villegas each recorded three assists.
Hull Seahawks struggled to create clear chances, and Swindon’s defence protected the lead through the closing stages.
The result marked a convincing home win for Swindon, who controlled the contest from the first face-off and maintained pressure through the middle period.
Hull’s response never matched the Wildcats’ intensity, while the hosts converted both strength and short-handed opportunities with notable efficiency.
