Taras Foremsky - Move To The U.K.

Move To The U.K.

In 2006 Foremsky arrived in Peterborough to play for the Phantoms where he would set the league alight scoring 136 Pts. in 48 games, somehow finding time to rack up 102 penalty minutes. Foremsky also dominated the play-offs scoring 17 points in 7 games. His end of season plaudits included, top points scorer in EPL, top points scorer in League, Cup and Play-offs for Peterborough and selected for the EPL All-Star 1st Line 2006/07. It seemed as though the good times were going to keep on rolling for Taras and the Phantoms with Foremsky scoring 34 points in the first 14 games. But after a mid-game, dressing room dispute with head coach Phil David, Foremsky left through 'mutual consent'. Although it did not take long for Foremsky to attract interest from other clubs and was snapped up by eventual regular season champions Guildford Flames on November 10. Foremsky got off to a slow start at the Flames, finding it hard to gel with line mates, but once he found his mark he quickly established himself as a fan-favourite and was instrumental in the Flames regular season championship title. He scored 22+33 in 34 regular season games, being voted Supporters Club Player of the Year, an extrodinary achievement considering he missed over 2 months of the Flames season. Foremsky then re-signed for another year with Guildford in early May. After another slow start to the season Foremsky's production picked up as the months progressed but missed out on games due to the Flames carrying an extra import. Despite this Foremsky finished the season as the teams highest goal scorer on 33 goals. This was enough to earn him a second supporters club player of the year award from the fans. With major changes on the way in the summer the Flames were going to rebuild, where at this point led Foremsky to the decision to retire to run his family's butcher shop in Canada.
