Veteran defenceman Joshua Mizerek looks set to become the Excel Hull Stingrays first signing of the 2010 post-season after his former side, HYS Den Haag in the Dutch Eredivisie, announced he had rejected a contract offer from the Dutch capital in order to sign in England with the Stingrays.
The 32 year old American, who captained his side last term and also stepped in as coach for a number of weeks, is a good bet to replace club legend Jeff Glowa as captain at the Stingrays with the evergreen Canadian expected to leave the club this summer, possibly for another EIHL rival, after six years in Hull.
Mizerek's signing will likely be made official in the coming weeks alongside a number of other recent signings, whose announcement has been delayed by Stingrays owners Mike and Sue Pack for an, as yet, unspecified reason.
