Special Pride Jerseys

These jerseys were designed by our graphic designer, Andrew Duxbury, and were commissioned by our jersey partners, Dunamis Sportswear.

Team News

Despite disappointing news this week that forward, Kyle Hope was departing the club to pursue dreams in Denmark, the Storm were quick to announce new player Ivan Sijan the following day.

Forward Adam Hughesman and defenceman John Negrin are currently recovering from injury, and Negrin is day by day regarding when he will be icing.

New player Ivan Sijan joins the Storm to add depth to the blue line. Sijan may be familiar to some, as he iced for Milton Keynes Lightning last season, scoring four goals and assisting another 11. He will be icing this weekend, making his team debut.
