Adam Dobson

Adam Dobson (born 23 June 1986) is an ice-hockey Goaltender for the Vectis Tigers. He is probably most famous for being a bit of a fighter in his time with the Wightlink Raiders. During his time there he was involved in two brawls, one against Slough Jets and another one against the Peterborough Phantoms. Adam Dobson joined the Raiders in November 2005 after the London Racers folded. Here he gained fighting skills from Cornish and Eric Cairns (a NHL enforcer). As back up netminder he gained a lot of experience, culminating in a great save rate in London's last game against the Cardiff Devils. In a recent game, he suffered a bad knee injury which has proved to be over stretched ligaments. At the time of writing (10.11.06) he is expected to return to light training on ice by the end of November 2006. Unfortunately after pushing his rehab it was obvious something else was wrong. After seeking a second opinion Dobson was to have an operation on 5 January. Draft Picked for Wightlink Raiders in the EPL. The team had conceded 276 goals and scored 81. Currently plays for the Vectic Tigers who share their rink with Wightlink Raiders. The team have sponsorship to pay for their travel expenses.
He is currently working as a postdoctorate at Cornell University, Ithaca.
