Chelmsford Chieftains secured the ENL Division One South play-off crown with a stunning 9-3 aggregate win over Wightlink Raiders.
The Chieftains grabbed a 4-2 first leg advantage and completed the job on home ice with a comfortable 5-1 success.
They now face either Coventry Blaze and Whitley Warriors in the national final.
Coventry reached the Northern final after edging past Nottingham Lions.
The Lions held Blaze to a 1-1 draw in Coventry and seemed favourites to go through but Blaze had other ideas.
An end-to-end game finished 4-4 and with overtime failing to separate the teams it was left to Rhys McWilliams to notch the only goal in a thrilling shoot-out.
