We are delighted to announce that Gregor McAllan has extended his commitment to the club and will ice for the Mos for the 2023/24 campaign. Having undergone surgery in December, and with an earlier than expected return to the ice at the backend of last season, McAllan is ready to push on and further develop and grow as a player.
McAllan first joined the Invicta Junior set up in 2015/16 playing through the age groups over the next 4 years, which saw him serve as both Captain and Alternate Captain along the way. 2019/20 saw the D Man split his ice time between the Invicta Colts, Invicta Mustangs and a new role within the Invicta Dynamos. In that season he iced for our club 12 times, crucially serving just 2 minutes in the penalty box.
The 20 year old re-signed with the Mustangs in 2021/22 but a recurring shoulder injury ended his season much earlier than he would have liked. Following a period of rest and recuperation he joined the Dynamos last season, but the niggling injury resurfaced forcing an abrupt halt to his participation and necessary surgery. The operation was a success, and he rejoined the team in March to see out the final, important stages of the campaign. In the 19 games he played he scored 2 goals, assisted a further 4 efforts and again spent very little time in the box, sitting for just 4 minutes.
McAllan is a young and energetic skater and his clean style of play is a much needed bonus when it comes to ensuring we do not take unnecessary penalty minutes, leaving the team short at vital moments.
On re-signing for the coming season, McAllan had this to say “Glad to be signing back to my home team, hopefully getting a full season in playing under a great coach and with great team mates”.
Lennon is looking forward to seeing McAllan back out on the ice for the Mos and had the following to add on the signing “I really enjoyed seeing Gregor rise to the occasion last season. He showed no fear and accepted the responsibility that we put on him. When he stepped out of the roster for his surgery, I did feel we missed him. It was no surprise to me that when he stepped back in before the finals, he would make a big difference for us. He’s an agile defender that skates extremely well. He is super committed, always putting his body on the line for his team. I’m sure we’ll continue to see his progression this season. Welcome back Gregor”👍.
McAllan will wear continue to wear the number 2 Jersey this season.
Welcome back Gregor!
