Ferrara, who enjoyed Division 1A glory in the World Championships last year with Great Braitain, told www.icehockeyuk.co.uk: “The team are raring to get started if I’m being honest. This is the most exciting thing to be a part of for a generation.
“We know we’re going to have to raise our game, but it is a challenge we are really looking forward to undertaking.”
Great Britain begin their campaign against Germany tomorrow and will then face hosts Slovakia, Canada, Denmark, USA, Finland, and France as they return to the top-flight of world competition for the first time since 1994.
