This morning, the club confirmed the re-signing of young British netminder Alex Oldale on a three-year contract extension.
Oldale’s first season back in Sheffield was disrupted by two separate long-term injuries, limiting the opportunities for supporters to see the full extent of his ability. Despite those setbacks, his professionalism, resilience and determination to improve left a strong impression throughout the year.
“I couldn’t be happier to have the opportunity to re-sign in Sheffield. I believe the set-up of the two-way contract is hugely important for my development and gives me a great chance to continue learning from experienced goaltenders across both teams.
After dealing with setbacks during my first season here, I’m determined to work hard, improve every day, and give everything I have for the fans and the club in pursuit of winning trophies in my hometown.
I truly believe that over the next three years we have everything in place to make it a very exciting and successful period for hockey in Sheffield.”
