Young talent signs for Lions

Talented 17-year-old Alan Khafisov signs for the Lions’ 25/26 season. Alan has put up numbers in his junior career, with a combined 53 points over 28 games last season. Those watching last weekend’s friendly witnessed Alan score a filthy bar down snipe in our 10-4 win against Nottingham, so we’re expecting good things in the regular season.
 
“Alan is a young and talented player that will be one to watch this season as he progresses,” said coach Simon Jones. “For his age he has a strong hockey IQ and a skillset that gives him a platform to be successful this season. I anticipate that his progress will exciting to see this year as he steps up to senior hockey.”
