I've recently been sent the below six photos of Eric by Ian Bussieres, taken for his article that appeared in 'Le Soleil' daily newspaper in Quebec City.
Many thanks to Ian for these, and the articles are available below.

I'm happy to announce that I have permission from the official Hull Thunder photographer, Arthur Foster, to include some of his photographs of Eric on the site.

Here are some from his last game for Thunder, against the Newcastle Vipers, on the 5th January 2003.

Arthur titles this one "Hope you're enjoying the game"...

Here are some of Eric from earlier in the season

Thanks Arthur!

Cheryl Smith at Hockey Photos UK has kindly allowed me to include photos from her site.

Thank you Cheryl, and see you at another game soon.

Chris Valentine at HockeyPhotos.com has kindly let me put up some photos from his site.

Thanks Chris.

Here's something from Eric's early days...
