The Belfast Giants, who have had a roller-coaster season, winning the league and conference, but being runners up for the challenge cup and playoffs, have already had a roller-coaster off season. With ice hockey here in the UK over until September, the off season gives time for coaches to build their team for the new campaign! Belfast Giants are building their team fast at the moment and within a week they've lost their coach Paul Adey and re-signed six players! Now bare in mind, we're not even a week into off season so giants are currently really busy by the sounds of things!
On the first day after the heart break of losing the playoff final for the second time in a row, Giants got to work adding five players! These were:
Colin Sheilds
Daryl Lloyd
David Phillips
Kevin Suarette
Evan Chevire
The news was like buses, none came for a few days then two huge ones came at once! This morning (Friday) Giants coach Paul Adey departed by mutual agreement by the club and later on, captain Adam Keefe signed for two years keeping him in Giants colours until 2016!
The search is now on for a new head coach, who will take over the role in charge? Watch this space!
