3 unusual facts about London Racers


London Racers

The team moved to the 1,200 capacity Lee Valley Ice Centre in Leyton, east London, although the arena was considered small for Elite League hockey.

The offseason saw the hiring of former American Hockey League player Dennis Maxwell as Coach, who assembled a much stronger team, including perennial British all-star Steve Moria, and, with the 2004–05 NHL lockout, defenceman Eric Cairns and centre Scott Nichol from the National Hockey League.

Church has also provided commentary for BBC London in other sports, including the London Broncos Rugby League team, and the old London Racers, formerly of the Elite Ice Hockey League.
