Didn’t count as a Brit for Coventry last season so probably not eligible, seems a good signing nonetheless

If he isn’t a Brit then we are still either short in D or short up front

To qualify as a Brit in this league you have to be classed as Homegrown i.e. you have to have played at least 2 seasons of hockey in the UK before the age of (I believe it's 16). Representing Team GB isn't enough to class you as a Brit. Curran is an import in the EIHL so, yes, we still need to have at least 1 full time Brit signed if we don't want to run short next year.

Yes Kooz, That was my understanding also for the EIHL. |
