Mackriel’s optimistic

Eurologix Telford Tigers captain Daniel Mackriel has a big goal as he prepare for a 21st season playing ice hockey.

The Telford-developed star, who is 28 later this month, feels the new sponsorship deal can lift the club to new heights.

“Gaining Eurologix as our title sponsor is great new,” he said.

“Sponsorship like this has been a long time coming, but good things come to those who wait.

“I had a couple of offers but this is home and I really want to stay here and win things with Telford. Last season we didn’t make the play-offs, and that has to be our main aim. Beyond that, who knows?”
