Former Hull Stingrays defenceman George Halkidis has made a U-turn on retirement from the professional game, instead deciding to return to Italy with Eppan-Appiano in Serie B.
The 28 year old blueliner, who didn't quite cut it last season with the Stingrays after returning from a year out of the game due to a shoulder operation, joins former Bracknell Bees and Nottingham Panthers coach Mike Ellis at the club as well as EIHL alumni Peter Campbell and Jonathan Coleman.
