If you could award an Honour to British Hockey.....

[Tyke Devil]

It will never happen....but if you could give an honour to an individual for services to British Ice Hockey (OBE / Knighthood...that kind of thing) Who would it be and why?

All teams and nationalities to be considered.

Who has done the most to ensure we have British Ice Hockey Leagues and teams to watch?

Probably thinking the recent past...maybe last 30 years or so.

John Lawless, also the late David Temme, from Cardiffs perspective.

Unless there are some great people doing some really good things for their local teams and communities at a lower level, that is kept very quiet then I would say no one.

No one sticks around the sport long enough, or does it for reasons other than their own agenda (which isn't necessarily a bad thing).

The honours system for many people is very flawed and plenty get awards they really shouldn't but I can't think of anyone deserving in UK hockey, sadly.
