The 25-year-old Canadian forward is the fourth and final import signing made by head coach Ryan Aldridge ahead of the 2025-26 campaign.

The 25-year-old left-hander will arrive in West Yorkshire on the back of a year which saw him mix his ice time following up a final stint in USports with Dalhousie University by turning pro with Trois-Rivières Lions in the ECHL.

His four years at Dalhousie were preceded by four seasons in major junior in the Québec Maritimes Junior Hockey League, widely regarded as one of the three best junior leagues in the world and one which has over the years produced a host of NHL legends.
