Manchester Phoenix player coach Tony Hand has secured his first import signing of the summer with Pavel Gomenyuk agreeing to join the club.
The Ukrainian born defenceman comes to Manchester with a wealth of experience in the UK after spending the past seven seasons split between the Newcastle Vipers and the Hull Stingrays of the Elite League.
In the 2005/06 season, Gomenyuk was part of the Vipers playoff winning side and has vowed to bring success to Altrincham.
He said: “I’ve won championships before and I think I’m due another one, that’s why I’ve signed for Tony and Manchester”
Tony Hand remarked on his latest signing, “He’s a clever player, scores his fair share of points for a defenceman, and is quite happy to play a physical type of game.
“Pavel is one of those players who goes about his work in a quiet, but highly effective manner,”
The signing of Gomenyuk comes off the back of the news that Robert Farmer has been drafted by the Ottawa 67s in the Canadian Hockey League, leaving Tony Hand to decide the make up of his three remaining import vacancies.
