Meet the 2017 Adrenaline Imports |

Get excited, Adrenaline fans, because hockey season starts this week.
"It gives us a lot of flexibility with who we play," says Mantere. "We can play with the right combinations to see what works best." Adrenaline fans came to know and love Cole in 2016. He loved his time in Adelaide so much that he never left! Thank goodness for that because he is back for another season. Cole is a gritty two-way forward from Prince Edward Island (PEI) in Canada. He powers his way by defenders and spreads the puck around. Last year he scored a couple signature coast-to-coast goals. Cole says he expects a lot more of himself this season. Last season a string of injuries and suspensions had him play half the year on defense which is not his natural position. He still tallied 25 points in 27 games. Forward - Cameron Critchlow Cam grew up playing with and against Cole in their home province of PEI so the connection runs deep. PEI has a population of 142,000 people and the Adrenaline are loading up on 'Island' talent. Critchlow has been described by every former teammate, player, coach and scout as an ultimate leader. In junior hockey he captained a Halifax Moosheads team that had future NHL-first overall pick Nathan Mackinnon and NHL-star Jonathan Drouin. His experience does not end there. He later went on to captain the University of New Brunswick (UNB) Varsity Reds to three national titles in four years in the CIS. He won his most recent this past march. Cam is a winner who will command the best out of himself and his teammates.
Casey grew up playing major junior hockey against both Cam and Cole. Then he played four years of Canadian University puck where he played along side MacMillan at UPEI and against Cam at UNB. Yup - another islander! He will likely get the bulk of defensive minutes both on the power play and penalty kill. Here is how Babineau describes his game: Babineau is also a natural leader. He wore the 'C' at UPEI, succeeding our very own Cole MacMillan! Defense - Morgan McNeill Morgan joins the Adrenaline from - you guessed it - Prince Edward Island. He first heard about the Australian league from a few players he played with in the New Brunswick Senior League. “I pride myself on my leadership skills and my work ethic both on and off the ice. I lead a dedicated lifestyle both on and off the ice and I hope the guys will like that about me and want to follow my work ethic," says McNeill. He seems to have the ultimate team attitude and is willing to push his teammates and work hard for his minutes. The Adrenaline all of a sudden appear to be quite strong in front of their net! Goalie - Tyler Steel After a four-year career as the goalie for Brown University in NCAA Div 1, Steel joined the Huntsville Havoc in the USA's Southern Professional Hockey League (SPHL). We can't go through this article without mentioning ultimate utility forward Jamie Holland. -------- Want to see the Adrenaline imports in action?
