Milton Keynes Lightning are pleased to confirm that forward Harry Gulliver will return for the 2026/27 NIHL season, continuing his important role within the club’s offensive core as preparations begin for another competitive campaign.
Gulliver, 26, remains one of the Lightning’s most consistent attacking threats, combining strength, speed, and a proven scoring touch. His return adds stability and firepower to a roster aiming to challenge for silverware next season.
In the 2025/26 NIHL National Division regular season, Gulliver delivered another strong campaign, recording 28 goals and 18 assists for 46 points in 48 games.
His production followed an impressive 2024/25 season where he posted 51 points in 54 games, underlining his continued offensive development and importance to the Lightning attack. Across his recent NIHL career, Gulliver has consistently ranked among Milton Keynes’ most reliable point producers, contributing in both even-strength and special teams situations.
Harry said
“I’m happy to be back with Milton Keynes Lightning for another season! From the moment I arrived the support from the fans has been unbelievable without a doubt the best in the league. I’m looking forward to getting back out there giving everything for the badge and pushing hard to bring some silverware home this season. Let’s make it a special one together.”
Pete Russell said:
“I’m delighted to have Harry on the team. Harry is powerful with a lot of skill. He can score goals, he can play hard, he’s got high energy, and he’s a good teammate. I’m looking forward to working with him next season.”
