Bringing a ton of determination, character and leadership Cam Critchlow returns for his 2nd season with the Manchester Storm!
One of Coach Finnertys go to players Cricthlow proved throughout the season to be a team first guy developing a habit of coming up with an important goal, defensive play or assist when the team needed it most.
Hungry for more, Crirtchlow will be leaned on even more this upcoming season and alongside fellow returnees will be expected to form a strong spine to this years roster.
Welcome back Cam!
Ryan Finnerty gives a further update on the situation at Manchester Storm, ST planning, a look back over the past season, thoughts about the EIHL "Magic Weekend" and explains just how difficult it is to plan for the next season with the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Plus we chat about whats needed for the club to start building towards next season from a strong position both on and off the ice.

Its fair to say Mario Puskarich has enjoyed a roller coaster of emotions recently. At one point it appeared the #37 had played his last game with the Storm, 24hrs later the club had performed a u turn re-signing the Floridan sniper.
