Pool returns to the Fury for his fifth season as one of the most decorated goaltenders in franchise history. His career record with the Fury is 101-52-16 with a .909 save percentage. His 101 wins and 183 games played are second in Fury history behind Sylvain Daigle, while his eight shutouts are tied with Joe Dimaline and Daigle for most in franchise history.

"We are very excited to have Clayton Pool back," Fury coach Bruce Ramsay said. "With the combination of Clayton and Isaac Reichmuth, we feel we have two Number 1 goaltenders who will have a healthy competition. This gives us two goalies that will give the team confidence every game this season.

"The plus is Clayton and Isaac are friends. Clayton has done a great job in Muskegon in the past, and we look forward to a bright future." Last season, Pool rejoined the Fury in December of 2007 after beginning the year with the Colorado Eagles of the CHL and finished with a record of 21-22-1-2, including two shutouts. He posted a .904 save percentage and a 3.18 goals against average, and was twice named the IHL's goaltender of the week. Pool was 1-1 with a .929 save percentage and a 2.44 GAA in the playoffs last season. He also set a new franchise record when he stopped 53 shots in a 4-3 overtime victory at the Flint Generals on January 13.

Pool won the Fury Rookie of the Year Award in 2004-05, with a 18-6-5 record, a 2.37 GAA, .914 save percentage and two shutouts. During his five-year University of Alberta career, he led the Golden Bears to five consecutive championships, posting a record of 99-15-3 in 136 career games for a win percentage of .831. His college career GAA was 2.17 with .916 SPCT and a school-record 18 shutouts. Cook and Fiddler will both make their professional debuts with the Fury this season after junior hockey careers with the La Ronge Ice Wolves of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League.

"Calvin Fiddler and Joseph Cook are two young rookies out of the SJHL that bring a lot of grit and tenacity to our team," Ramsay added. "Joseph Cook was one of the toughest players in the league last year, and comes highly recommended from Jon Mirasty's agent. Calvin Fiddler has a ton of skill and definitely plays with an edge. They will be exciting to watch."

In four years with La Ronge, Cook made a name for himself as a bruising forward, twice surpassing the 200 penalty minute mark. His top season with the Ice Wolves was 2006-07, when he set career-highs in games (54), goals (6) assists (6), points (12) and penalty minutes (251). In four seasons with La Ronge, Cook played 132 games, recording 11 goals, 14 assists and 545 penalty minutes.

Fiddler's statistics improved each of his three years with the Ice Wolves. He posted career highs in every major category last season, including 41 points (19g, 22a) and 166 penalty minutes in 55 games. In his three years with LaRonge, Fiddler totaled 153 games, 33 goals, 42 assists, 75 points and 274 penalty minutes. Fiddler also showed off his versatility with the Ice Wolves, filling in on defense when necessary.
