Joining the Stena Line Belfast Giants is 29 year old Canadian forward Aaron Clarke. With the departure of Derek LeBlanc mid way through the 2011/12 season, Giants Head Coach Doug Christiansen has drafted in the former ECHL All-Star to bolster the lineup. Aaron Clarke was one of Doug Christiansen’s targets this summer and he kept in touch with him during the season. Clarke has been a captain of multiple ECHL teams and is a player Christiansen believes will make an impact. Clarke has also played for 3 different AHL teams.
“When I learned that Leblanc might be leaving, I knew who I wanted. Aaron Clarke and I spoke during the summer and we came very close to a deal. Clarke is a hard-nosed skill player who can play in any situation. He is a very fast player who can score.”
