HULL Stingrays' coach Sylvain Cloutier is keeping tabs on former fans' favourite Ryan Lake.

The 27-year-old forward played for Stingrays during the 2005-06 season when the club was in the English Premier League.

Subsequently he was hampered by a back injury.

Cloutier said: "Ryan has been skating with us and he looks good out there, but I know he has a full-time job."

Asked whether he would be adding Lake to his squad, Cloutier claimed: "I've not really talked to him about anything, but you never rule anything out."

Meanwhile, Stingrays have added Canadian forward Jereme Tendler and defenceman Kurtis Dulle to their roster.
