After an injury-plagued 2022/23 season with the Bietigheim Steelers in the DEL, where he only made 17 appearances, Josh Atkinson returns to Hydro Fehérvár AV19. With the Hungarians, the Canadian recorded 49 points in 57 appearances. Now the 30-year-old is looking forward to his return to the runners-up of the 2021/22 season: "I'm very happy to return to Székesfehérvár. When I played there, we had a very successful season and I want to achieve similar good results in the future."

Next season, goalkeeper Olivier Roy and forward Akos Mihaly will play again for the current season's quarter finalists. While it will already be the eighth season for the 23-year-old Mihaly in the Hungarian kit, the 31-year-old Canadian Roy will start his second season in Székesfehérvár in September.
