Canadian forward Taylor Dickin has signed for Manchester Storm.

Dickin spent last season with Edinburgh Capitals, scoring 14 goals with 31 assists in 59 games.

Player/Coach Omar Pacha said: “Taylor ticks a lot of boxes for us – he is big, puts up points, is very strong in the face-off circle, and adds depth to our squad.

“Face-offs were an area we struggled with a lot last season, so to secure some depth scoring along with a strong face-off guy was really important for me.

“Taylor is determined to come into Manchester and have a really strong season, and is acutely aware with the expectations of the Storm franchise this upcoming season. He is going to fit right in.”
