Fife Flyers, sponsored by Arnold Clark Mercedes-Benz, are delighted to confirm American born right winger Charlie Mosey has agreed to a try-out contract for the start of the 2017/18 Elite Ice Hockey League season.
Mosey, 25, from Prior Lake, Minnesotta spent last season in the ECHL with Elmira Jackals alongside recent signings Ian Young and Andy Iles. Mosey iced in 56 games last year in Elmira, scoring 5 goals and 15 assists.
Prior to icing in the ECHL, Mosey began his professional career in the SPHL playing for Mississippi Riverkings scoring 8 goals and 22 assists in 56 games.
Mosey attended Dartmouth College from 2011 to 2015 where he iced in 110 games scoring 10 goals and 24 assists.
Speaking about joining Fife for the 2017/18 season Mosey said “I am thrilled to have the opportunity to play for Fife.
“When the team first contacted me, I immediately reached out to Matt Reber, a fellow Minnesotan and Dartmouth alum, who played for the Flyers for two seasons.
“He told me that he really enjoyed his time spent in Kirkcaldy. That was more than enough to get me hooked on the organisation, so I’m glad that everything worked out.
“I consider myself a 2-way forward who sees the ice well and is extremely versatile. I am comfortable playing any position and can be relied upon in any situation. I am hard-working and like using my speed to open up ice and create scoring chances for my line mates.
“I am eager to meet the rest of the guys and get the season underway.”
Head coach Todd Dutiaume added “Charlie comes to us initially on a try out contract. Former Flyer Matt Reber gives him a glowing reference and firmly believes that he has the capability to impress.
“Charlie is a very good skater who will bring a much welcomed work ethic to our line up. He takes pride in the intangibles he brings to a line up. I hope our Flyers faithful will give him a warm welcome to Fife.”
