Biography

Canadian/Italian dual national Tedesco arrives in Belfast following a successful season with Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL) side, Guildford Flames – notching up 36 goals and 55 assists in 67 games, good for 91 points in all campaigns. He was also named in the ElHL’s first All-Star team in the end-of-season, league-wide awards.

Throughout the 2022/23 season, the Flames contended end-to-end with the Giants for the top spot in a fierce League title race, concluding with a fiery sell-out showdown at The SSE Arena, Belfast which saw the men in teal crowned EIHL trophy winners on home ice after a 6-1 victory.

Before arriving to the UK to kickstart his EIHL journey with the Flames last season, Tedesco spent two seasons in the Alps HL with Fassa, where he led his side in points for the 2021/22 season. His prior journey was mainly in the US, featuring stints in the ECHL with sides Wichita Thunder, Idaho Steelheads and Wheeling Nailers, as well as with Pensacola Ice Flyers and Mississippi River Kings in the SPHL. He played NCAA hockey for St. Cloud State University, where he lifted two championship trophies during his college hockey campaign.
