Joe Hazeldine returns for rest of 23/24

More good work from the club. Nice to see Joe back, supported the Panther’s growing up and comes back after gaining a bit more experience within the EIHL and in Europe. Tetlow’s injury was a massive blow to our lineup, Joe’s signature softens that a bit

Good addition to the blue line. Welcome back Joe 👋🏻

Delighted. Hope we can keep him beyond this season…they spoke in the summer about building a Brit core for now and the future, hopefully this is with that in mind!

Thrilled with this.

Felt we should have picked him up in the summer. I've felt for a while Joe has been unfortunate to be overlooked by GB. For me he's part of the next crop and as we see thw old guard retire he will move up to be one of those top 7 or 8 true Brit Dmen in the country.
For me he is a better overall Dman than Tetlow by some way. I get what people like in Tetlow, that being his size and reach, but Joe is better technically.

Really elevates our Brit pack and should we add another import forward it gives us real flexibility in the line up.
